一To remember and correctly use て-form and dictionary form.
While I did remember the て-form and I think that I picked up dictionary form very quickly, I did make some silly mistakes which I did not catch until the quiz. However, I soon corrected those errors and did much better on the test. I have a complete understanding of both concepts and can use them in sentences easily. |
二To speak more Japanese in class and listen to more Japanese.
I reached my goal! My tablemates and I spoke only Japanese to each other for a few days to see how it would go. Together with Gloria, Maica and Amanda, I held a conversation (about music) in only Japanese. While it was difficult, it became easier the more we spoke. I'm sure that as we speak more in the future, we will become even better. |

To be able to hold a more informal conversation by dropping unnecessary particles and topics.
Unfortunately, I spoke mostly formally because it is the form of speech that I am most comfortable and familiar with. I think that once I go to Japan this summer and return, my informal speech will broaden due to being immersed in the language. |
To create a quizlet set for every chapter in the book in order to improve my vocabulary.
Wow I did not do this at all. But I am going to Japan this summer! Woohoo. |
