After 11 years of learning English in school most of Japanese have hard time to say even "How do you do?" Japan is much open now compared to when I lived there. But still we do not have many chances of speaking with native English speakers there. There are low cost English courses using Skype.

Reading is a different matter. If your focus is being able to read and write properly then grab a nice book on that language, a dictionary, another book with rules of that foreign language and have some fun.

My problem is I have too many of these learning materials. I spend far more time reading about and searching good materials for learning German than actually learning it. I spend more time trying to figure out which is the best eReader for learning German than learning it. I know this is stupid, but it is very hard to stop.
