How long will it take to learn English ? Will I be able to take other courses next semester or will English take up all of my time ?

I ’ m not kidding . Learning a language is a question of forming language habits and that takes time .

So do we have to stay in this English class forever ?

No . You just have to stay here long enough to get some orientation . Then you go on practicing and learning outside . A lot of learning depends on your personal motivation .

So it ’ s really the same story . Practice , practice , practice and more practice is the only way to learn a language .
