I started to learn English in the middle school at the age of twelve.In my country teaching material and methods used to be inappropriate to learn then. I think language lab must be part of this activity.After scool language learning efforts should be continued without interruption as a hobby. These days I've been learning Arabic as well as English.

I started to study English at school but it was really basic just some words and basic grammatical structures, It has been 4 or 5 years ago already when I started to study English seriously.

I started to learn English at school since I was about 5.
The best age to start learning is the early ages to practice the language beside your mother tongue and grow up as a bilingual person.
It will definitely help you in your future job hunting and communication with foreigners.

Best age to start learning English is from 5 years when the child is very much ready to repeat things they hear and ask questions

The answer, according to current research is early adolescence, so about 11-13. This question, like this, most about language learning, cannot be answered so simply because it depends on the situation.

I started learning english in my school but I learned a lot by myself. I believe it is some period from 5-7 years. Children learn new words very easily.
