So the past six weeks, I've started focusing more on speed. I started by shadowing easier material until I could grasp what I was shadowing, and that helped me keep up to pace with shadowing models and implement pitch changes and intonation into my speaking. Now, the practice that I am obtaining is more efficient. I still feel like my speed is not where it should be, however, so I would still like to largely work on that
Revised Goal Statement: I would like to improve my speed to come as closely to a natural model as possible, and would soon like to be able to keep up with longer phrases.
The methods of completion for this goal statement include
1) Continue going to office hours
2) Continue reviewing vocabulary and kanji
3) Continue going to Japanese Language Table
4) Begin shadowing twice a week, one for PE and another for myself
5) Watch anime more often, 30 min/day
