You can't learn English (or any other language) just by attending classes a few hours a week. To learn English well, you must spend as much time as possible using English. You are using English whenever you are listening to it, reading it, speaking it, or writing it. The more time you spend using English, the better your English will become. You must also understand that it takes a long time (several years) to learn English (or any other language). You must work at it and you must be patient.
