I feel like I can improve upon how quickly I can speak and process the words that I am reading. I have to hesitate on some words to make sure that I say them correctly.

I think that I need to improve myself when it comes to being more fluent. I get nervous when I begin to speak Japanese because I want it to sound authentic, in doing so, I tend to over correct myself or mess myself up when I'm speaking. I think i need to practice speaking out loud more as well, doing this activity increased my comfortability of speaking Japanese and improving how I sound.

I think I could improve my speaking more through more practice. I try to process some of the words as I am speaking, so I stutter a little bit. I also struggle reading vertically, so that made it hard to follow a little bit.

i could use better rhythm but i think i lose stamina the longer i talk

I find myself stuttering because I forget kanji and overall it makes my fluency go down. I Also think I read a little bit robotic or odd because I stead of recognizing certain word’s im still “sounding” them out.

If I am honest, I do not know where to begin. I need to improve on everything. I practiced this story many times and recorded  it multiple times. This was extremely difficult and humiliating to listen to myself read. I used to have a bad stutter as a kid, but grew out of it. Although I never stuttered reading. However, I find myself stuttering badly when reading Japanese, as well as speaking, as I choke on words and consonants when trying to get them out.

In a general sense, I need a massive amount of repetition, I need a massive amounts of reading, I need massive amounts of studying Kanji, and I need massive amounts of speaking if I am to improve. Massive amounts as in thousands of hours of reading, writing, and speaking.

I can say though that reading passages and striving to understand them has a great value that cannot be understated. Reading puts everything into place, from understanding grammar to using kanji, to everything.

I had difficulty reading the vertical characters. For that reason, I think that I was a bit slower than usual. Additionally, I would get stuck on the pronunciation of some words, even after I heard them on OtoNavi a few times. This tells me that I have to keep "shadowing" OtoNavi until I have confidence in pronunciation. Also, I had to look for some Kanji characters because I had forgotten them. As such, I have to continue studying Kanji so that I don't forget them so easily.
