Goals and Activities

In order to improve my pronunciation and fluency in the Japanese language, I will set general goals and specific activities to meet those goals.

Goals:
Speed - to increase the speed with which I speak and understand the language
Pronunciation - to sound more fluent and natural
Intonation - to correctly speak sentence intonation and word pitch

Activities
- Go to the language table at least once a month provided that it does not conflict with my other academic requirements
- Go to しばたせんせい's office hours at least once a month to practice and correct speaking
- Do at least 1 anime shadowing exercise each week
- Watch at least 1 anime episode and practice speaking by shadowing two characters' dialogues throughout the episode
- Listen to Japanese versions of songs that I like and practice singing along every day
