I was always curious, when do they start teaching you another language in school? O.o i heard from my British friends its very late for them, and they would complain about it, I'm curious if US is same

Depends on what type of school you go to. Some start as early as elementary while others 12-13 years old. It's not required at every school either. 

The biggest issue is many language teachers are not that great. Or more like not much funding and support for the department.  You'll often hear  Americans say they took a language like Spanish for years in school yet still know basically nothing. 

The teachers are a lot better in university. But by then it's a lot harder to learn a language. Tho I still know more Korean then Spanish.

 i was curious bcs we start learning at 1st grade to 3rd grade

It can be as early as kindergarten sometimes as well

Still 12-13 is not too late but it is probably too hard  to learn after those ages 

If Spanish is too hard to teach for the state, why not try another language? For structure I found out German is very close to English, some schools can give a try to that o.o still waiting till uni, it should be pretty hard to learn after that point rip

Most schools that offer language courses do usually have more then one option. Spanish is one of them at every school tho. Like I said in my earlier post, it's beneficial in the US considering the population. Also it's usually the most popular pick by students and parents because of this. 

Not matter what language it is still doesn't change the lack of good teachers and funding.
