Why is it easier for the woman to learn English?

M: It’s so hard for me to learn English. Why is it so easy for you?
W: I didn’t know you were having problems. Maybe it’s easier for me because I already speak two languages. But also, I really work at it.
M: Well, I always do my homework and go to classes. What else do you think would help?
W: Well, you might try reading newspapers.  And I always talk to Americans when I get a chance, though sometimes it’s hard.
M: But, how do you meet Americans? I only know other foreign students.
W: How about sitting next to an American at lunch, or have you ever thought of asking someone over to your house for dinner?
M: Those are good ideas. But I’m a little shy to speak English.
W: You won’t learn if you don’t try and speak. If I were you, I’d talk to your English teacher. He might have some good ideas.
