The best age to start learning a foreign language is most definitely young, even very young - children are adept to learning new things. If you started around five you would most certainly be an expert now, but any time is a perfect time. It just takes discipline and a lot of willpower as it is hard. I've learnt French and Spanish now and I'm young, so it was easy! Good luck!
