Okay so I'm watching a video about how America is hyper-individualistic. I moved to this country last year (NYC specifically) and I haven’t really had any experiences that made me feel like people are hyper-individualistic. Does anyone have examples of situations where you’ve felt that way? And if you’ve ever lived in a country where the culture is very different (more collective and close-knit than the US) could you share your experiences?

I used the word "native" because I couldn't think of a better word but what I mean is people who can speak English comfortably with native speakers without any issues.

I know there are tons of methods out there when it comes to language learning but I am not sure which ones are the most effective.

My goal is to communicate comfortably with people so I spend most of my time on listening to English.

I guess my questions are:

1. What methods did you use to get to where you are now? What method worked best for you?

2. When you practice listening, how did you choose what kind of content to listen to? They say to choose something you're interested in but I feel like I'd only learn English that's specific to that topic. I am into cooking and watch a lot of cooking videos in English but I feel like I am only learning English that's related to cooking rather than the English used in everyday conversations. How did you choose what kind of content to listen to while practicing English?
