Never too late. Rote memorisation becomes more difficult as we age, but it's not impossible. I've been learning one of the more difficult languages (Finnish) in my 40s for about 300 days now, and I am making progress.

Look into 'active learning', it's far more effective than apps like DuoLingo (which I use heavily, it does have its place)
