English is hard to master because we have to master 4 skills. they are Reading, speaking, writing and Listening. all skills above are really complicated to master.
when we are able to master of speaking, we need master of grammar as well. it won't make sense when we are speaking we do not use correct grammar. and the most important thing that we need when we are speaking is pronunciation. because if we are lack of pronunciation, our speech we will be difficult to understand, even it will be misunderstanding.
another difficult thing that is difficult to master is reading. here we need fluency and the correct pronunciation. we need to be accustomed to reading so we can read as fast as possible.
another is writing. for me, writing is the most difficult skill that i should master. here we need to consider many things; grammar, vocabulary and then we need to choose the exact words; whether it is verb, noun, adjective and so on.
other is writing. we always difficult to identify what words are they.

Hello, I am Herman. I am new here. I need your suggestion to make my English more and more improve.

even thought I have learn English almost 11 years, I still find many difficult things in learn English....
maybe because I seldom to practice it.
I think our environment is so influence our skill in English, isn't it?

So, I think to improve our English skill, we need to practice English in our daily activity, mainly at our class.

although English is my interest and I love it and I've learn since I was in elementary school. master in English still difficult for me.
I still poor with vocabulary, my grammar still not good, and my pronunciation still not good and writing is very very difficult for me. if I write sometime I confuse what word should I choose and does my sentence grammatical or not.
