Are there any good ways to learn English? Just tell me! (+_+;)

I learned English at a Junior, senior high school, and at a university about 2-3 hours almost every day, for about 10 years. Plus I was listening to the NHK's radio English programs, "Kiso Eigo 1-3"(Basic English course), "Eikaiwa"(Conversation course) for about 5 years. I also did Benesse's "Shinken Zemi Chugaku kouza"(Textbooks for junior highschool student) for three years, lots of textbooks, phrase books and with English dictionaries(E-J, J-E, E-E), and used textbooks, reference books for "STEP"(Eiken), TOEIC, TOEFL tests, Penguin Readers, Puffin-Penguin Classics, Oxford bookworms, I sometimes read The Japan Times online, the CNN.com, AP's website, etc, and watch several DVD movies. They are difficult, I don't understand them without dictionaries. But it seems they were not enough. I am still bad at listening and speaking. I feel the number of textbooks, or such materials are enough, but my experience of English or hours of training are not enough .... that may be because I live in Japan and there's almost anyone who speaks English here, at least around my house.

a mistake. > that may be because I live in Japan and there's almost anyone that may be because I live in Japan and there isn't almost anyone

English is difficult, because you can't rely on anything. I guess "trial and error" is the only way...? I am not a teacher, however, so I feel I shouldn't suggest anything... I was born and live in California. In addition, I'm often told that my way of speaking is odd. But, if anyone wants help from me, I'll do my best.

Also, I'm sorry for being so presumptuous.

It is not possible to read. Please put the shake Japanese syllabary.

I learned englesh watching fansub. But i guess this wouldn't help nipponjins, wouldn't it?

Total immersion sounds like the best method. Textbooks are good to start off with but speaking with natives would be better. Just becareful not to pick up any strange accents or local dialects.

reading and writing are easy but listening is too difficult for japanese

If you get somebody that can speak English very well, either a native speaker or somebody very fluent, and hold conversation with them you should eventually pick it up. You could also try English websites online with voice chat if you have a microphone. I'm born and raised in Louisiana myself, and while I didn't pick up a strong accent I do still have one, and speak with my own dialect so I would not be a good candidate to help you.

Thank you for your opinions. I really appreciate them. I found that writing some messages in here is also a little good thing for learning English.
>>11 There really isn't a lot of good conversation here, though...
15 ：
>>10 "English websites online with voice chat"... There are sites like this? Please, tell me more.
16 ：
>>15 Mostly places with video feeds, seeing as this is a chan site, stickam is popular on 4chan, but more for raiding and shit and not so much for talking. Also yahoo and several other emails have video chat services.
>>10 I've been thinking of doing that with a Japanese person to improve my Japanese seapking and listening ability but every time I get around to doing it I back out and say I'll do it some other time. If anybody would like to exchange Skype contacts with me feel free to ask.

There's always moving to America/England/some other English speaking country and trying to get by with what you have. Full immersion is what I think is best. But that's really only after learning a lot on your own.

>>1 What is your favorite comics? Just transrate it! Incidentally,I can't understand. I'm sorry by about talk. But, the important thing is challenge. It changes your costomary thinking. I believe it.

Watch subbed anime and read scanlated manga! I can pick up some Japanese through that. Maybe Japanese speakers can learn some English, too? (Although that won't help with speaking and listening.) I have seen a lot of subbed English programs on WOWOW and Nicovideo. You might want to try watching those shows. I, too, would be happy to help someone learn English. Although I can't speak Japanese.
24 ：
>>23 Ah, but you have no be careful. Some people take liberties with the translations.
25 ：
I'd suggest a comedy such as Monty Python but their humour isn't exactly great for those trying to learn English. I guess a learner could learn to adopt an English accent from watching Monty Python.
To ensure that you use proper semantics and syntactics, you should just use a grammar book. For example, the book titled "English Grammar for Dummies" may be helpful on this subject.

tell you what. just get a text book of French (language) written in english. then, do your best to learn french through the book. you'll find it easy to understand or read in english than what you are actually learning.

AUSSIE (Australis criminalis racistae) is a type of hominid with strong body odor and pig-like skin yet coarser in texture. Their specific behavioral patterns are vandalism, raping, sadistic slaughter of other animals. It requires maximum caution when they are to be caged at zoos. Aussies recognize cetaceans as their mate, sometimes jump in the sea to eat whale excretions and drown themselves. Currently researchers are not certain about the cause of their degenerated intelligence.

If you want to learn english, i recommend a site called iKnow.co.jp. There are courses for learning English, Japanese, and several other languages. The site was originally for Japanese Speakerslearning English and English Speakers learning Japanese. The site has grown to teach other languages, but Japanese and English are the main ones. It's very helpful, And the users there are very encouraging. You will find natives to speak with, (text chats and voice chats, all free through Skype.) Believe me, it helps :) Please check it out Dv.
