I noticed there are A LOT of people who speak A LOT of languages:
1) I admire you all!!

2) but.. how you do???

However..I read somewhere about people who want to learn a new language from Internet....do you all think it's real possible??

After trying to learn a few language, I think learning language is not that difficult. All textbooks for adults can actually be readable to kids, Pimesleur's famous teaching method is adopted from the way we acquire a language in our childhood. The difficulty is that most of us remotely learn a language without instant needs and native environment; therefore wrong pronunciation is not corrected immediately, wrong expressions escalate, and finally, a nightmare for all learners come. I've experienced a situation that no native speakers can understand what I've leant for many years.

Internet certainly helps learners a lot, but can be good or bad to publishers. Some famous learning materials, like Pimesleur or TellMeMore (Aurora) become more famous with internet, but pirated copies has been one of the best hits in Emule too. I take advantage from all these, though.

Thanks for your opinion...as I have already said, the big problem is about the necessity to USE the language with someone, and better speak instead of write only. Its a big defeat when you are sure to be able to speak a language and at the first test, your interlocutor isn't able to understand you!!

However I make treasure of all your opinion and suggestion! Thanks again to all of you!

hi,snoopy,i think we're in the same situation.In China,we Chinese students usually don't have enough foreign teachers to practise English.But,we watch English movies,listen to English songs,and so on.Yea,I mean we practise our English mostly by ourselves.You're in Europe,I think it's more easily for u to improve ur English----the best way to improve English is to talking to someone who speaks English.
