When I was 22 years old, I hardly could speak English language and now when I am 34 years old I can speak many accents because I was trained when I was working in my office. I left the job because of the night shifts however, whatever I learned was very useful for me. I am able to work on internet only because of those hardworking days when I learn't English.

I worked so hard and struggled so much that today when I peep into my past, I feel how difficult and hardworking those days were for me when I used to go to learn English. Luckily, I got to learn English free because I was trained by a company before hiring and I worked like mad because I had got a chance to get a job after 2 years.

Good on you, well done. You will find that speaking and reading English can only be an asset for you. One of the reasons that so many foreigners are so comfortable in the Philippines is that the majority of the locals speak good English. Imagine living in a country where you didn't know the language. Everything would be so hard for you.

My history with my English was that.
I didn't have English in my school and five years ago I went to England for work. It was very difficult on the begin because I didn't understand any thing. But when I start be with English people and watch English television I start understand more. Now I understand every thing ,I have just problem with grammar .I should go to school but I don't have time. I try learn alone sometimes but it is difficult if you don't have teacher to ask him if you don't understand something.

I would say for myself that i don't find it a struggle at all to learn english, as the main language in my country is english and it's essential that you know english to get a job or communicate with others. As someone who comes from a multi racial country this is very important. And i also love reading which helps a lot on brushing up my vocabulary. Cause i would usually ask someone or look up in the dictionary if i do not understand any of the words.

In my young days i got friends who speak english and also my native language (non english). My sister love to read english books and i catch on the bug and also start reading english books at early age too. My mom is a teacher teaching non english subject but she understand the importance of english language and encourage us to read by having english daily newspaper subscription. My school is near the state library so i used to follow my friends there to nap and sleep since it air con building and i end up reading english books there too. So i was lucky , since english has always been around me even it is not my native language or official language in my country.

Good to hear about your success story! I never really struggled with English even if it isn't my native language. In my country they teach English at a very early age and they are very adamant about it. Trouble is, everyone here still speaks native so I don't really get to practice my verbal English skills; but I could write an article in a snap. :P

As far as I am concerned, I think there is no need for me to struggle to learn English in my life.For me, I think I am a English lover. So in my daily life, I may want to talk some English with my friends with so easy environment,which all of us can relax it a lot.So just take it easy, I think you will enjoy it a lot in your life.
