"Learing a language is easy. Even a child can do it!" Most adults who are learning a second language would disagree with this statement. For them, learning a language is a very difficult task. They need hundreds of hours of study and practice, and even this will not guarantee success for every adult language learner. Language learning is different from other kinds of learning. Some people who are very intelligent and successful in their fields find it difficult to succeed in language learning. Conversely, some people who are successful language learners find it difficult to succeed in other fields. Would you like to give some advice for becoming a successful language learner? You will be appreciated by the language leaarners!

Learning a second language is indeed very difficult for newcomers.That needs patience,courage and perseverance.You have to pay more endeavor on that language.The foremost you should remember is never give up whenever you confront what kinds of setbacks.My ways for learning English was also hard,although we began to study English since we were in elementary school,until I finished my college life I can't speak fluent English.However,I'll never give up and continue to study hard.So if you are learning a language,insist in the end and you'll benefit from the experience!Come on!

Learning language is a hard job, i think there is no crosscut to do, you should everyday study it, even if several minutes. Learning a lanuage need to learn the culture and custom of that country. So you should learn them in some other methoD, like see some film, reading some writings and so on.
