Learning a Second Language I've been studying English since I was in high school. I can't really learn English in English schools, because most of the time they only teach you the grammar rules, sometimes speaking in their mother tongue. So I realized that I don't need to spend my money in English schools. Now I study English by myself. I use the internet, I listen to the English conversations and I read books, sometimes I speak in English with other people. That's work for me, although I always feel like I am saying or writing something wrong, I don't fear making mistakes because I'll learn from them.
