Hi. First I want to tell you that many students have the same problem like you. English is not hard to learn, but the way of learning English is important. Here are my ideas: First, try to correct your mistakes, and don’t make the same mistakes again. Second, listen to the teacher carefully in class. It can help you understand the lesson after class. Third, you should do some exercises if you wish. Don’t worry. You’ll learn it well soon. Best wishes to you.
