Pharasal Verb "Get"

At the first sight, it doesn't seem difficult to get on in living in a foreign country, but sooner or later you will have to face the problem of a language barrier. Not the best use of this verb, but might depend on where you are using it.  Another way to say it might be without using "Get": At first living in a foreign country might not seem difficult, but sooner or later there could be problems caused by language barriers.  


He is a person who always easily gets on with his colleagues no matter what place he works at. or "no matter where he works"  'Always easily' could be a difficult combination to pronounce, and the always isn't really needed. 


If you were not so shy, you would not have difficulties in getting on with other people. Remove the comma.  If you were not so shy you would not have problems getting on with others.   More common might be "getting along with others" but this again might depend on where you are. 

I have been getting along with my boss from the very beginning of my work. I have been getting along (well) with my boss ever since I started working here.   well is optional. 


You will not get along with Iren until you apologize to her.  or You and Iren will not get along until you apologize to her. 


The ability to get along with other people is one of the most helpful personal qualities you can have.
