Mastery of a (human communication) language, can be broken down into 4 parts:
- Reading, Writing, Listening, Speaking.
It may be a different mix of fluency for each individual according to their personal goal. Some aim to read novels, others to watch japanese video/movie/TV, and also others to pass JLPT certification exams.
Depending on your needs, you can do focused studies that cater to your personal goals.
Generally, I think you can start with visiting the "Japanese basics" section https://www.renshuu.org/index.... From there, you can click on the buttons "add beginner japanese to dashboard", "add japanese basic to dashboard". They will help add schedules to your dashboard. As you complete those it will continue to get to higher level topics through a prompt, once you complete the schedule.
These are kinda SRS-ish (spaced repetition system) so it's going to take some time to fully master. You can also check your mastery level as tracked by the renshuu platform. Repetition helps in memorization. The different exercises helps in understanding through sentence synthesis practice, especially, Word Garden and Question Corner.
There are many fun stuff in the games and community to participate which will help with the foundations.
It's best to be able to do some immersion as well. Like consume media (books/articles/movies NHK NewsEasy) full pure japanese-only in short sessions, little by little increase so you can flex and practice your understanding. In addition, producing is also important part of it, writing Haikus or Sentences, write a short conversation scene in a play, translate your favourite simple short story to japanese sentence by sentence.
Hope this helps.
Thanks for the tips! I've gone through all the content you suggested and am starting to wrap my head around Grammar. Where should i do next? Im not studying a textbook and am terrible at compiling my own resources so im somewhat lost on how to advance from this point.
Thanks
