Guest (South Korea)
I am South Korean, and I have been studying English more than 10 years (since it is mandatory to learn English from primary school to high school). But I still have lots of difficulty understanding and speaking English. In case of Mandarin, however, even though I've just started to learn it a year ago, I feel more confident when speaking Chinese. How ironic is that!
