You can do anything you want.  College degree is proof that you are capable of learning and acquiring new skills.  Beyond that you have to rely on your work experience.

read magazines and books in english, with a dictionary close to you. converse with a friend who knows the language. relax and don't be afraid that you'll make a mistake and be open to corrections. or you can also rent english movies (even sesame street- this show helped me with my english during my younger years. still works for my nephews!)

Taking a class is a good start, but there is nothing like actual immersion "speaking" the language. Start with an introductory class. Then volunteer at your nearest deaf/hearing impaired school for a while.

Try taking English 101. They teach all sorts of neat things like capitalization, punctuation, and spelling.\n\nIt's really cool.

Immersion is the best teacher. Use your tuition to book a nice English Speaking cruise or tour. 3 weeks! sounds like you'll meet a lot of new friends and go home talking like a native English speaker!\n\nBy the way...I notice in your writing that you could teach a few of us Yahoo Answerers a bit of English!

Check out the Evelyn Wood Speed Reading Course. \nWhen you are there be sure to check out the David Dinkins School Of Speech.

Practice is key.  Practice with someone familiar with the field (I am assuming you are a grad student) and a native speaker of English would be especially helpful.  If possible, make American and British friends in your department!  Talking to them may be free, but the practice will be like gold down the road...

There are lots of graded readers out there.  OUP has a good collection and they offer information on how to use them effectively.  This allows you to teach the classics and other important literary works while still working at their English level.

Sainsburys is a good starting point, as they get a lot of customers. But a small ad in the local paper can help, too. Check out tutoring companies as they get a lot of requests for such things. \n\nHere in Torquay there are a lot of language schools. Their main function is to take the kids of wealthy Europeans and teach them English - but if there are language schools in your area get in touch with them (try your Yellow Pages)\n\nTry these web-sites too\n\nwww.talklanguages.net\n/www.fleet-tutors.co.uk\n\nYou could also make a 'myspace' or Yaho 360 site about teaching chinese and have people contact you from that.\nThe more varied your approach the more likely you are to find ways that work.\n\nYou could start with teaching me Mandarin???>>>\n\n                                   ;-)

You can get your foot in the door with some English teaching companies.  Nova, for instance, has a publishing branch that I'm interested in.  So I'm leaving for Japan in August to teach conversational English, and have it in the back of my head to keep an eye out for opportunities with their publishing company.\n\nI think your best bet would be to go over and teach English just to get set up and get your foot in the door, then begin to network, jobhunt, and outshine the other "tourist" English teachers.
