<human>: Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?

I met a girl two weeks ago at a social adventure club. She was interested in me and we spent an afternoon together. She's really starting to grow on me. However, I found the time I'm spending with her moving at a rather difficult pace. The problem is, she's currently learning English, making it difficult for us to communicate with eachother. I find things I'm telling her being misunderstood, jokes lost on her, and myself reexplaining things many times. It's difficult to keep things moving forward; I'd have to keep driving the conversation forward otherwise there would just be awkward silence. I'm afraid we would lose interest in eachother if this continues. 
I'd really like this relationship to work out, what are some way I could work around this dilemma?
<bot>: There's a language barrier between a new girl I've met and myself, making it difficult for us to get to know eachother better. How can I work around this?
