Learning English I have been living in Toronto for one year, my english is pretty low. I always try to be focused in learn more everyday but it looks difficult to me. I watch movies, read books, listen music en English as well as write a essay all weeks, but my English does not improve. I do not know what I need to do.. I took IELTS test last month and just achieve 5.5 in overal score. It dissapointed to me because at leat I was expecting a 6.5 or 7. English is a beautiful language, and it does not look dificult I have no idea what my problem is. Anyway I know that learn other language is not easy but at least I think it should not take more than a year to learn how comunicate with others. Do not you agree with me?

Academically speaking, by my corrections, your level is poor.  However, this does not mean that you cannot communicate with others within a year's period of learning as you suggested by your question.  We can understand each other.  

 

As for your first question, I believe you problem is that you lack one crucial aspect in learning English.  You did not say you speak and practise with others in English.  It is very important.  You cannot learn a language well if you don't speak it.  Even though you may make mistakes, it is okay. Just ask your friends to correct you.  If you are shy and afraid to make mistakes in front of others, you will never master any language if you are going to use it as an effective communication tool in daily life.

According to academic standards, it's poor. Conversationally--you're doing fine (with minor errors here and there). I suggest you get a professional tutor, so that h/she can help you practice proper grammar but also to help you speak the language.. In my opinion it's best to practice full conversations with the tutor, as well as to read and to write the language.
