My trouble

I'm attending the English conversation Hackwon now.
that's YBM SISA Hackwon in Jong-no.
I'm learning a lot of English conversation from teacher.
But, as soon as I'm go out from Hackwon, I forget them.
This is my biggest trouble.
So, My English conversation level never improve.
How have to do I ?

As much as you are trying, your need to improve your short term memory. You have to commit to learning English. That means you have to try harder.

I also lack in short term memory. If i do not enjoy something then i forget it.

I'm not saying you do not like english, I'm trying to learn Korean. It took me a LONG time to remember how you say "very beautiful" in Korean a VERY LONG TIME.

Once you have it in your your short term memory then it will go into your long term memory.

Don't worry shsong, you will get it!!

Hi !
Thank you very much for your encouragement.
But, I think Hackwon's English conversation education is very much don't helped to me. So, I think The best solution is directly make a foreign-friend and often have to meet them.
And then, I have to learn to their English conversations.
This is biggest solution about Studying English.
Right ? How about your think ?

For Conversational English yes you are correct there is nothing like speaking it daily. It is not easy as english has so many rules and has a lot of slang mixed in. I think your command of the language is excellent as you read and write as well as speak. That in its self is a great accomplishment. Just keep at it and be patient.

Thank you.
But, English speaking is very poor yet.
I think Speaking is most more important than writing and reading.
You know most Korean peploe's English speaking is very poor.
It's biggest problem about Korean English-Education.
So, we're need to Native speakers.
The Natvie speakers are increase more and more in Korea.
