Oh, Americans are very friendly, I have met several Americans in a international conference, they talk to me and explain their meanings paitiently, and we have lunch together. they are so kind, but I can only understand part of what they are saying. really frustrated.

I'm not a native English speaker, I've studied it at school and, during summer holydays, in England and Ireland. Later, I practiced reading and listening by reading books and watching films. I have problems with writing and speaking though, I make a lot of mistakes, but I love foreing languages and I keep on trying. Using myLot is another way of learning writing and reading Enlish.
Thank you myLot

The only way to be good in oral English is to practise with a person who speaks good English. He or she may not necessarily be a native English speaker. You'd be surprised to know that there are many Asians who could speak English as fluently as native English speakers. Learn from them, practise, and you'll see some improvements in a few months.
Good luck!

I am American born, so I am a native English speaker. Speaking well, perhaps that may be another issue - hee hee. My first language was actually Japanese . . . but now I count that as my second language. I understand Japanese fully for the most part, but it sure doesn't come out of my mouth so easily! I live in a place where I naturally picked up many languages . . . English is my most fluent language though.
