Thanks for the encouragement 😆😆

But this year, I made the leap from group classes to private tutoring plus a conversation practice tutor, and I am actually having proper conversations, and I really want to talk about it.
I'm probably typing into the void. I have no clickbait stories. Just me. Learning stuff and sharing

How’s it going?
Thanks for asking. I am thinking of documenting that on my Bluesky account.
I don't talk much about it online as I don't want to seem like a weeb or pretend Japanese sensei. Also I am really, really shy about speaking Japanese and feel very lacking in my skills.

Being a designer/illustrator is all-consuming for me, as it’s both my work and my hobby, so learning a new, very hard language seemed like a good stretch.
