I realized that...

I'm an office worker. When I was a student, learning English was a thing I had to do every day. But I didn't want to spent more time on it. But now I need to use it at my work, I realize that my English is so poor.

Hello Dou Yuan,

You are in the same position as many students from around the world, English doesn't seem so important when you are at school but when you go out to work you realise that you have missed the opportunity to learn something which will be really useful in their life.

Because you say that English was something you had no choice about when you were at school you should use 'had to'. Also take care, in English there is always a space after commas and full stops (periods).

Best wishes

I'll give it a try, even though mine is also not very good. Please don't be disappointed if my corrections are not correct or proper enough.

I realized that...

I'm an office worker staff. When I was in school as a student, learning English was a daily-work thing I have to do every day. But I didn't want to spent more too much time on it. Until now, Becouse I need have to use it at my on work frequently. So I realized that my English was so poor.

I realized that...

I'm an office worker. When I was a student, learning English was just a task that I had to do every day.

But I didn't want to spend more time on it, not more than I had to -- until now.

Now that I need to use it for my work, ~~and~~ I realized that my English is so poor/ I realised how bad/poor my English is.

* I use "is" ( present tense) because I assume your English is still poor .
