As a lot of you know, that we Chinese don't really speak much English, just like Russians(sorry guys), we do learn English from school; middle school, high school till university. But seems like that nowadays kids from kindergarten(not all of course) start to have English teachers. My point is we learn English just for the exams not for using and communicating, probably that is why we don't speak English well...
To sum it up this is how I learn English still. Hope one day I can just talk like a native English speaker.
wow, fonectics should be the world standard :p
