I learned it through being chronically online on mostly english speaking internet
Wbu? Did you learn it the same way? Did you take actual lessons to learn it?

I am always impressed at how these non natives can communicate so well

 

[LancasteR]

My mum taught me it before and then we started learning it in schools on 3rd grade.

Internet. I needed to communicate. I then passed TELC B1, B2 and C1 and then later on C2 at the age of 17 iirc. And then German C1 in one go. Bla bla. Anyway, just like with most things in life, if you need stuff, that's how you learn. No bootcamps, no teachers, all done by yourself based upon a need for the skill.

Yes. Plus, i watched lots of American movies with subs.

I picked up English when I was six and kept at it until recently. Plus, they drill it into us here in Spain all through school. And let's face it, I spend more time online reading English stuff than in my own language these days.

Its rather unique but mainly through videogame, videos and movie subtitles. A lot of the english i learned comes from muslim preachers also.

Places like this forum helped me to improve it a lot also.

Im a spanish native speaker.I learned firstly by listening to english YouTube videos,and then reading 4chan posts,but where I learned More was when I was lurking this forum in 2022.I dont know the gramatical rules,I only know how to write by remembering how this forum writes and in wich orden words are written.I tendnto use Google translator to write words I dont know yet.

I took 3 years of a private course, I didn't finish it, but it was enough for me to have good writings and oral skills in the Shakespeare language.
