By studying in our mother tongue, more Haitians will have a greater chance

By studying in our mother tongue, more Haitians will have a greater chance of completing their studies abroad, and will be able to return to their home countries and serve the local community after they graduate. In almost all cases, when we travel to another country, someone will ask us what language we speak, to which we will reply: I speak both French as well as Creole, which is my native language. In spite of this, when they start talking to us in French, we do not really understand anything that they are saying, neither can speak the French language.

I think that the true tragedy of the matter is that Haitian intellectuals are not even able to write the language they only speak, which is Haitian Creole, and they are not even able to speak and write French, as they pretend they know it.
