ok ,thanks for your advices .

Hmm.. One of my other friends from China learned by watching American movies that really interested her.. and also by listening to American music, she learned the lyrics of the songs and will sing along with the music.. Her oral English and hearing is so good now. I can speak to her very naturally when we do our voice chat on skype.. in fact using the skype messenger service is one of the favorite parts of my day. I can speak with any of my friends and help them practice. Practice is the only way to improve, but I find that it is difficult for many to overcome their shyness. You are always welcome to practice with me. Good luck and take care!!
