The major differences between learning English as a child and learning English as an adult are attitudes and ways. Firstly, the children generally has less patience to learn than the adults. For example, the kids would like to have more activity time to “play” with the words instead of being quiet and reading in English. On the other hand, If the adults want to learn English, they will pay more attention on their work. Furthermore, it is not hard to find that most of the kids learning English from teacher, obviously, adults have their own ways to learning English. For example, as adults, the knowledge from classes fulfill the their eager about vocabulary, grammar and writing skills. Then, for children, they would not use their time on study. As for adult, they would feel more  comfortable  to write and practice individually. At the same time, it builds their confidence about what they learned as well. In sum, both of these groups of people has efficient ways to learn English, despite the adults is totally different to child’s.
