My American Work And Study

Although I've been in America for over a year now I still feel like my listening is no good, but it's definitely better than last year. I found my first job here very difficult because my English skills were very poor. Even though my basic English was enough to fulfill my job role I still felt like I couldn't express myself freely. I've been laid off recently due to a lack of new orders, so I'm thinking this will be a good opportunity for me to improve my English because I'll have a lot of free time on my hands. I'm currently looking for a part-time job because I need money to pay the bills and to continue my study.
