Yes, You are right . I totally agree with your opinion. Do not depend on anyone. Try to assimilate whatever is beneficial in our surrondings. Also we need to change some of our habits .As the words said " Habit change into character".
Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. It is me who learned English in almost 80 percent students from China.But I will find all chances to speak with students from other countries and teacher. Of course ,it also depends on ones willpower ,I will learn from you and try my best to learn English well.

Nice to meet you! Let's learn earch other. I don't think learning English is really so tough to Chinese. It just needs to take more time to practice;however,the most important is to learn a new culture when we study English. After 5 years, it will be more interesting to gave a conclusion about how to study English.
举个例子，让我们尝试着读以下句子：1)The bandage was wound around the wound. 2)There was a row among the oarsmen about how to row. 一个句子里有两个单词拼写一样，词性不同或此意不同，发音不同。这些细节很少能自己在家里学得到。另，如果你用writing words 去交流，人家会觉得你说话很奇怪或有意拉开距离等。比如说，我们常在写作中用 I am not.....但是说话中当地人常用 I amn't....
写作也是如此。我们常认为写作中只要语法正确就行。但是，很多用法常常是自我想当然得那么写下去，老师最后会告诉你某些词在这里用得不恰当，或者有大量的标点符号错误。或者语法没问题，但人家不这么表达.....这些hole 需要在老师的修改下一点点补充。另，老师还会告诉你怎么写essay or theme,这些文风在写论文中常需要。学校里教的是academe writing.
不知道jiayi现在的级别，建议可以先从蓝皮儿的Ten Steps to Building College Reading Skills 开始，如果简单了，就试试红皮儿的Ten Steps to Improving College Reading Skills。一般的学校图书馆应该都有，就是挺热门的，我每次借，每次被别人预定了无法续借。
