Yeah I speak Japanese, it is the main reason I went to Japan to further improve.
I'm at a college with no classes in english, and because there are so few exchange students they don't really help with problems like these.
Going in a group with lots of people to help fill out those forms etc... that is one thing.
Going solo is another, my japanese is having the hard shift from theory to practice.
And really... the national insurance was much much much harder because there was some problem on the application and I couldn't understand what the problem was. I still don't know, but after some rough conversation I was able to get my card...
I don't expect people to speak english. As I said before it is often for me to be in converstaion with someone where I am speaking Japanese and they are speaking english. I understand they want to practice, but hell I did fly halfway around the world to study Japanese...
