What are they teaching these kids?

Outside of my English Zone there is a sign that flashes English words or phrases and their Korean translations.  Each day the students are supposed to write down the words and then they are quizzed on them on Fridays.  Yesterday I noticed this gem of a phrase:  


Really, some students can't even understand "My name is...", but yet you want them to be able to say this?  And who decided to use Sharon Stone as an example (and then misspelled her name)?  I think 1992 called and they want their celebrity back.  Once again the Korean educational system fails to make sense to me.
