There is no age limit to learn any language. You should be confident and show your dedication and confidence to learn. You should give atleast 1hour daily to learn English. Start with basics first and slowly move towards fluency in speaking.

Is there any word in your mother tongue which has same pronunciation of an English word but different meaning(Homophone?) "Truth is stranger than fiction". A real incident which took place in Mumbai some 20 years back. An American landed In a foreign bank in Mumbai to do some audit work. He was provided with an attender to do a few menial jobs like opening/closing the door on his entry/exit.The American Officer found the assistant not closing the door whenever ordered to do so as he couldn't understand American accent.The American Officer made a complaint to Bank Manager. The Manager racked his brain and finally found a solution to this problem. He advised American Officer to say "There was a banker" instead of "Close the door". It worked out fine. "There was a banker" phonetically matched with DARWAZA BANDH KARO
There was a cold day which means " Darwaaza khol de"
