I am a research scientist in biology, working now as a freelancer scientist.
I am resident in France, however, lately, being more time in Romania.
English is one of the most easy to learn languages, being some 66% of Latin origin, therefore easier for native Latin origin language and those using Latin alphabet. However, In my long experience with people from Asia, it is still easy due to a relatively easy grammar and writing.
My teaching online experience in English is of more than 5 years, having thought more than 13,000 classes, with both children and adults of many nationalities and cultures. I have TEFL 120 hour certification since 4 years.
I speak at native level (C2) English, French and Romanian and currently (C1 level) Spanish and Italian.
I also used to teach biology and sciences in Universities, as well as in high schools, using different languages when teaching, according to the students and country.
I really enjoy teaching languages and biology, as well as other topics such as geography, astronomy, geology and talk about traveling and sports, or any topic the student would like to. The easiest way to learn about an attractive topic and developing it the lesson, using intuition and adapting permanently to the student's level.
I do a lot of sports like high level cave and open water SCUBA diving, sailing, horse riding, mountain hiking, tennis, and others. I like friendly and "cool" classes, being relaxed and informal, yet rigorous on learning, loving also to have fun and make jokes.
English is easier to learn for Latin origin languages (Italian, Spanish, French, Romanian, Portuguese) native speakers. English is about 66% of Latin origin, so for native Latin origin language speakers it is easier than other non Latin origin languages, basic grammar being quite similar. For other natives, it depends on the native language, individual skills and culture. Asian people learn quite fast from my long experience with Asian ( Chinese, Japanese, Korean) natives.
I think it really depends on the person's native language - as specified above - but mostly on the personal skills. Some people learn speaking quite well in a year or even less, some may need longer. It really depends on the personal skills and the effort and time spent to learn, innate ability, as well as the level of speaking skill targeted, sincerely. Basic English is learned pretty fast, high level may need years.
