EDIT: Turns out I have a teacher's guide for teaching Genki, which is all in Japanese. I'm pretty relieved that I'm not as behind as I thought I was, haha.
I am still a beginner with Japanese, and everyone has suggested using Genki 1 and 2 to learn more. A lot of people recommend it for a beginner level (suggesting where I am at), but I cannot understand it even when trying to read it, as it is all in Japanese! It's causing me to feel very unmotivated, as I feel as though I must be missing something.
How are other beginners learning from Genki? What do I need to focus on in order to use Genki for my studies? I can read hiragana, katakana and some kanji, but I find myself struggling still.
Any help and resources would be appreciated!
