Japanese

Goals:

I want to improve upon my listening skills and in my retention of grammar learned previously in the course. I need to become more confident in my speaking and conversational skills, as well. In the last six weeks I have been able to improve upon the latter somewhat, but I want to continue to improve.
In order to achieve these goals, I will change up some of my approaches. For instance, I will:

• Practice free conversations with another classmate once a week (especially practice listening and dictation with another classmate).
• Visit しばた先生の office hours once a week.
• Review grammar frequently
• Study for a bit more everyday (20-30 more minutes).
• Shadow for 15 min once a week.
• Watch more anime/expose myself to more Japanese (whether through drama, music, etc).
