PE 3
Reflections, PE2
In PE2 I chose to focus on becoming less hesitant in speaking. I think that while I've improved in this regard somewhat it could still use some work. I also have noticed some errors that appear in my speech when I try to speak with less hesitation, which I should work on correcting.
Goals, PE3

Goals, PE3
- continue to improve my confidence
- work on correcting errors while speaking (for example, using the wrong tense)
- fix overall sentence pitch
- attend language table and JSA dinners
- spend some time speaking with Japanese-speaking friends

PE2
Reflections, PE1
For my first PE cycle, I chose the goal of becoming more confident in speaking and in reading aloud. I chose some activities - language table, shadowing - that I thought would give me practice with this. I did most of what I set out for myself to do, although I did have to miss one of the language tables during the cycle.
I think I've gotten better at the speaking from text just by having more practice reading hiragana and katakana, but I'd still like to work on free speech. I think my pronunciation and intonation is reasonable for the moment, but I've found that, even when I kow the relevant grammar and vocabulary, I have some difficulty speaking without pauses when I'm forming sentences rather than reading aloud.
Goals, PE2:
- try to become more comfortable speaking, with less hesitation - particularly when assembling sentences (choosing particles, etc.)
Activities, PE2:
- attend language table each week
- try to use what I know with my roommates in daily life
- listen to and, if appropriate, shadow 15-30 minutes of Japanese speech (anime, conversation, songs, etc.) total each week
