I read in an online magazine that learning english is the big problem in the big Asia, specifically, in China.
Fuen is a chinese boy. He studies english eight hours a day, seven days a week. His case is not the only one. Million Chinese people, around 350, study english because its knowledge let them obtein the best jobs .
The english schoools are proliferating like mushrooms. They represent the new big business.
In Asia, learning english is very difficult because the differencies between the chinese language and the english language are deep. Despite that China is the leading country in the world sending students to european and american universities to learn english.
In the end, another advantage is their shyness. That´s the reason why there are methods called “Crazy English” . Those methods consist on a intensive course where students are motivated to lose their shyness.
