Anyone else feel like they understand, but cant speak as much?

I am currently in Japan, so I have been doing a lot of listening. I feel like I get the jist of things, some words in the sentence I don't know but I get the meaning due to context clues (sometimes). However speaking myself it's not so good, I struggle putting sentences together and words. I have been learning Japanese for probably on and off 10 years now so I'm a little embarrassed at my pace, but I know it's not a race but a journey.

I was wondering at this level, what have you done to get better? Right now I just have a kanji book going through the stroke order and I see a tutor every week for about 90 mins. Any other advice (preferably free)?

Thanks in advance.
