Q: How do you learn a second language in China?

A: In my mind, learn more and practice more is little bit better way to learn English in China. I tried to find the opportunity to practice it at work, but usually I’m afraid to speak out. For now, I can do some paper work, for example PPT in English, but I’m afraid to speak up in the meeting. Actually I just speaking directly in English class. I’m afraid that my colleagues know about I am not good at English. The purpose of learning English is to solve the issue that i can talk with my clients directly.
