My child's spoken English is terrible

My 5 year old keeps coming home saying:

I done that

He teached me this

Yeah, those two mens done it

He also says everyFing, Fankyou.

It is driving me nuts. His teacher says that he is no worse than the other kids in his class but I don't find that very comforting.

The weird thing is he is very good at reading.

How good is your 5 year old's spoken English?

Ds2 at 8 still says "his-self" When I tried to correct him and pointed out that it was "himself" he retorted by saying that "himself" didn't make any sense. And when you think of it, he's right!
