How to overcome insecurities when learning a language? Hi everyone, I have a huge insecurity problem when using Korean, mostly in speaking since you cannot check words and correct grammar online when you are trying to have a conversation. I do not trust my skills and go on "lockdown" when a speaking situation (especially with a native) occurs. Within my Korean classroom (lower-intermediate) I am mostly fine but I feel like this insecurity barrier hinders my learning greatly. I am going nowhere. So,TL;DR how to overcome insecurities when speaking? How can I create a "safe space" other than my classroom where I feel secure enough to make mistakes, make conversation? How to find a secure native-level person to chat with on eg. Kakao?
