He's at the point though where his English is expanding rapidly. His listening is definitely better than his speaking, and that's the way it naturally goes when you're in another country. But you can end up learning very quickly. But yes, he is brave.

When im in elementary school,i only know how to wrote and read English. During my high school year, i go to English school. My teacher encourage me to speak in English although it's broken English. Nowadays i don't care anymore,some English people that i know told me it's ok to speak in broken English because they understand it. Im from Malaysia

@@sahedthebutler8685 It is absolutely ok for you to speak broken English. Every person around the world love it when people try to speak their language. They will help you learn if they are nice. I can perfectly understand your comment, and what you meant to say. In my opinion, I wish Americans would learn more languages to reciprocate the same enthusiasm that non-english speakers show towards learning. If you have any questions about English, comment here, and I am sure many people would love to help you.
