Has anyone on the forum taught themselves how to speak Japanese?
If so, I'd love to know how you accomplished this. Do you have any secrets you'd like to offer? Websites, books, etc.? I'd love to learn, but my school doesn't teach Japanese as a foreign language, so I wanna take the initiative and teach myself!
Even if you aren't self-taught, but have learned the language, I'd love to hear your story! Classes? Private tutor? I'd love to hear!
Finally, has anyone taken Japanese (or any foreign language, for that matter) in college? I'd love to minor in Japanese in college, so I want to know what to prepare for. Easy? Hard? How does it compare to learning a foreign language in high school? Is it upbeat or boring? Is the teacher a big help, or are you basically on your own?
I'd love to hear your stories and appreciate your knowledge! It'll definitely help me in making decisions in the coming years.
NOTE: English is my first language, so advice from people learning from that language is preferable, but I'd love to hear about learning a foreign language in general.
