Learning english is mandatory over here, I think it starts in third of fourth grade. Later on you can also take another additional language, most people go for French but often Latin and Spanish are also available, depending on the school. If you want to study at a university you need Abitur which even requires a third language most of the time.

I really can't stand strong German accents when speaking english, which is kind of ironic since I am German myself. It's part of the reason why I practice pronounciation so much. It's really pleasant to listen to british english, scottish on the other hand is too hard to understand for me sometimes. Oh and there's also the russian accent which I actually really like. I think it sounds kind of cool in a way.
