How did you learn English?
Um. I'm a native speaker, but I have a couple friends who aren't. They said being around a bunch of native speakers and talking with them helped with pronunciation and such. Slang too. Ha ha. :)
I used to learn English by memorising grammar rules, and it helped me to pass the exams.
Now, I learn english by imitating sentences of native speakers (perhaps), and it helps me to write my posts to this forum.
(Hey, I still have difficulty with preposition !)

reading was the main tool.
After that - listening to songs, movies, audios.

I suggest you read nineteenth century English literature books. Charles Dicken's books will be good for starters.

READ....READ...READ....READ....and of course practice speaking in english...
Stan,
Why 19th century literature? Wouldn't modern literature, with more up-to-date language be better, especially if there is a lot of dialog?

No, Stan is wrong. Use modern texts. I learnt English by talking to a british dude in prison.
I can't say yet that I speak English because I don't speak it very well, by far but I'm trying and would love to speak it fluenty one day! To make it clear, I don't learn English at school (high school) and have never learned it!
I'm a native speaker of English, so yeah...
Anyway, Larissa, your post has some mistakes but it's still pretty good, especially for someone who's never formally studied English. Do you need to look up lots of words or do you only use words you know off the top of your head?
