My English teachers weren't too good either but by the time I got to primary school I already had a decent grasp of the basics on some subconscious level. Almost everything I know I've learned from playing games, watching movies and listening to music without any translation since I was only a few years old. Obviously some internet websites helped a lot too but that's when I was quite a lot older.

In other countries it's more of a necessity to learn English, whereas we don't ever need to understand other languages unless we want to play games without subtitles.

That, and they all learn English properly since there schools teach them textbook English. Although, I doubt that any 'foreigners' learned English entirely from school. I mean, the internet is where you learn stuff, regardless of whether or not it's good or bad. :}

I'm also getting confused with all these words like verb + particles like up/down/out/on/away.
Two words with the same verb and different particles can have absolutely different meanings.

Generally, these are used as prepositions to indicate location, time, etc. but they're also often used in idioms as particles. The only way to learn idiomatic expressions is by wrote memory and by practicing them in speech. You could look up a list of common idioms or even buy a book.

American education, etc.. I think it's funny how English teachers are failing their students all over the world.

Why are Americans so bad at English? I have a theory that the lack of exposure to foreign languages contributes to an overall lowered linguistic intelligence. Maybe there are some skills or patterns people pick up when learning other languages. Like, knowing the language of origin for an English word will help you spell it correctly. Someone from Europe or Africa should have an easier time doing this than an American.
