Dear Teacher ,
I’ve encountered with some the puzzled structures containing multiple adjectival phrases such as written below ;

(a) They giggled at my terrible-english speaking.
(b) They giggled at my terrible speaking – english
(c) They giggled at my terribly spoken english.

Being a non native user of english , I’m unable to distinguish the correct and proper structure.Could you please brief me ? TQ.
