I feel you, man. When I came to the States, my English was even worse than yours right now. 12 years in school in Vietnam, I'd learned almost nothing. I came so close to start from scratch when I took my first English class here.
Guess what? They don't use any special ways to teach English. In 2 hours class, the teacher only spends approximately 20 minutes on grammar. The rest are for discussions, work group, class activities,... I think those are what we lacked when learning English in Vietnam. Class activities make us so active in learning, that way we explore English and absorb it. Well, in Vietnam, students are so passive. The way we learn is like a damn tape recorder. How can we learn English when we don’t have change to practice? You can’t memorize it. Well, you could. But once you learn a different language, you have to practice on the regular basic otherwise you will forget it.
Some of you will argue with me on this. We have been making excuses for so long time already. Vietnam is a poor country, we don’t have money… I say bullshit. I was taking to one guy from India, this is his first time in the U.S. and I can understand him very well. According to him, they don’t learn English anywhere else except in school. They take it so seriously as it’s their second language. Their students have to speech English and be at certain level when graduate from university.
Back to Vietnam, I don’t think it’s right to blame everything on the student. Since we can’t beat the system, what else can we do?

/I didn't check it again, so let me know if you find any mistakes.
