I don't think there is shortcut to learning a language, be it speaking or writing. You have to keep practising and practising at it and practising with the right people, people who speak good English that is.
Being in an English speaking environment would help accelerate your learning curve I think.

I agree with Tedtmc- there is no magic answer to the question, I'm afraid. For most people, languages take a long time to learn. The more contact you can have and the more practice you get, the better. Listen to as much as you can and take every opportunity you have to use it.
