I’m basically working from the ground up in Genki with a tutor, so struggling is completely reasonable, but it’s still frustrating. I usually prep for lessons by trying to anticipate what I might be asked about, but ultimately I still end up scrambling a little due to changes in word order and such, which results in dropped/incorrect particles and incorrect conjugations. Social anxiety is a huge contributing factor, but so is my (perceived?) lack of mental agility when working in real time. Since these two issues feed each other pretty well, I’m hoping that working on the latter, the former will decrease. I’m just not sure how to practice on my own time since I can’t get spontaneously prompted. Has anyone else struggled with this? What sorts of things helped you?
