Learning languages is really a tough journey, especially when there is not a language environment. For me, I learn English from some apps on my phone by myself, no one around me speaks English. Even if you cannot see a foreigner in my city. I have thought of many short cuts to learn English, but there are no uses. I used to study English by listening, because I think that kids learn how to speak by listening first, then can speak. But it is tough work and seems useless. At present, my learning methods are writing first, listening second. When I am tired of writing, I listen. When I am tired of listening, I write. Back and forth like this, I hope it can work effectively for me.

I think that an adult can be inspired by a child's learning strategy, but cannot reproduce it very closely. We don't have adults constantly around us to produce sentences in the target language and correct our mistakes. Also, adults' brains are not the same as children's brains. There are certainly things that children can do better, but nonetheless, there are things that adults can do better, and we should take advantage of them.
There are sites like conversationexchange.com and italki.com that specialize in matching up people who speak language A but want to learn language B with people who speak language B but want to learn language A. If you have access to something like Skype, you can take advantage of possibilities like these.

Great work! I also spent a long time listening (podcasts, movies) because I wanted to learn like a child. I was so afraid of writing and speaking. This website has really improved my abilities. I've noticed such a difference in just a few months, and I've noticed lots of improvement in your writing too (your sentences are more natural and have fewer errors). Keep going!
