Actually, I do use English everyday, at work and I practice at home.
It's quite necessary for me to improve for I talk with foreigners everyday, Not natives though but I would like to have a conversation with natives, I believe it will help me a lot more...
You have chosen the right way for learning English. The most important thing in learning English is to have a great wish. I see you have it and I wish you again all the best and keep in touch. Cheers!

I'm just curious, what is it to native English speakers to further their knowledge in English?

I'm a Filipino; and I know two dialects, my province's and Tagalog which is our national language. but we Filipinos don't give much effort to learn and go deeper in Tagalog... we just study tagalog in school, that's all.... after all, we can communicate to native Tagalog speakers....

Hi, Blouen!
Do you think that English learners in your country really feel its importance?

English language is the door open to the future!

I'm proud in saying that currently I'm learning English on my own and even so I know I'm getting better everyday. Since I found out this website, I can cont on having native English "teachers" around the wolrd to help me when I need and this encourage me a lot! (Well, I even bought a grammar book guided by one of those teachers!.

Without English, I feel myself 'lost' in the world. Thought people here in my country speak Portuguese, I'm councious of the importance of this language. It's a pitty I do not have anyone to practise this wonderful language...; English connect the world.

The more we learn English, the more the world open its doors to us.

Cheers

Falcon

Nice point of view for learning English. I think without feeling the importance of the language we can't learn it. Nobody can make us learn a foreign language but ourselves.

I don't know! For me it is... I have my goals in life and I think it's one of those that may help me reach them.

Only a few people in the world can't understand English these days. I'd go to those who could understand...
