How did y'all learn english?

to me it was games and YouTube vids but now ı have to learn ''English'' like writing essays and stuff so like any tips for going B2 to C1 and learning academic english. Also I'd really appreciate it ıf u guys recommend some channels that teach how to write essays and some complicated grammar things . But like no long vid ı can't sit and watch a vid called ''How to Write The Perfect Essay For Your Exam!!'' for 2 hours that would kill meee

Me personally, i learns from tv channels (like cartoon network, nickelodeon, and nickjr.), i watches them with English dubbing without the subtitles of my language. We got our first tv when i was 1 year old, so i started watching them at that age. My mom also bought me and my brother English dictionary for children, filled with cartoonish picture and drawings, so it was very fun since i really likes that dictionary. As i grew up i watched more English speaker youtubers, shows, cartoons, and movie on Televisions and Youtube. OH! and Video Games! And then i got into reading (in English, it felt weird reading in my home language..) and slowly got into writings and have to learn more about it.

I didn't really got any exciting English lesson at school, i mean i do get it at school but at elementary school i only got English at second grade, at Junior high i got it for 7th-9th grade but it just the basic where i already understood everything, the same also goes for when i reach high school where the teacher let the students use google translate for everything and the lessons were the basics again, nothing too difficult (for me at least). We didn't really practices our English vocally, like reading out loud, or presentation in front of our class, and such. SOMETIMES we do, but its like pretty rare.

So personally i learn English ever since i was a toddler.

Vidya gayms and movies, youtube too. School helped a bit, but it was mostly being immersed in the english speaking internet.
