Abstract: The aim of this article is to highlight the problems the author faced teaching English for specific academic purposes at the higher vocational level at a Swedish vocational college. Heterogeneity, grade inflation, lack of academic freedom and a general lack of discipline in Swedish educational institutions are factors which have played an important role in the poor academic performance of Sweden in the last PISA study conducted by the OECD.
