I don't know how Singapore compares to Taiwan (never been to Taiwan). So it's hard to know what kind of information would be relevant/useful.

Il faudrait ajouter un forum francophone pourquoi qu'ernest puisse s'exprimer plus facilement.

Au fait, ou es-tu aux Etats-Unis ?
I want to improve my English not French.

But at least your johnson is larger than average in the largest average country. Clearly you do not have enough time on (in?) your hands.

how good are your skills in speaking orally in English?

Are they better than a year ago because of this class?

Of course. They can not be worse.

But i guess my spoken language (so pronouncation and hearing) are always been correct.

May problem was rather to get more fluency by learning new words.

Then you are to be commended. I know very few French people with a decent accent in English.

I wasn't talking only about the accent but about the fluency and the ability to be understood. When i write a message, i don't translate anything but think in English. I don't neither spend my time checking every words and i rarely use a dictionnary. For all these reasons, my spoken English is not worse than my writen one. If i was using a dictionnary for every words and spending 30 minutes on each messages i post, my spoken English coudn't be good.
