Very relatable! I only became fluent because I spent a two years abroad in the USA. In school it was my weakest subject and failed almost all of the tests. So imagine me, someone who speaks about 3 basic sentences, being sent to a country where he knows no one and no one speaks Dutch... It was scary, but the best thing that could happen to me.

Right now with the writing aspect, you're spot on about all the points you make! Excellent post, thanks for bringing me back to the time I was still learning English, not knowing what it'd bring me in the end. 🙌
