I have been learning English since when I was a middle school student,I graduated from my university 15 years ago (my major is not English ).I remember when I was in Middle and primary school,my Engilsh teachers at that old time always spoke Chinese English ,it was very difficult for me when I frist entered in my University ,I flet those foreign teachers never spoke proper English( I wondered why English people never spoke proper English ,hahah) !I realized and corrected my pronunciation problem after the university.
I think a good English environment is very important for us to practice our spoken English .Sometimes I speak English with my husband at home.
I have never given my English up for so many years even though I don't use English much in normal life and work,I often read English news online when I am free.
