learning language on your own

I love corrective feedback. I think that is the best way to learn. How can you learn anything without something letting you know your not doing something right. I want to take a class but with a full time work schedule it is really hard. So I rely on nice people like Mike, elizabeth, epigene, pipo, gp, glenn and the MANY others ralian who tell me "your grammar is jacked up" :p to help me out when I have questions, And my Japanese friends who love the fact that i am studying so hard. Also encouragement I think is another factor to keep one's spirits high when studying a new language. It's always nice to have someone tell you your doing good. This leads back to feedback.
 
It hard to do, I tried to teach myself Khmer (Cambodia's language) and it was very hard, even though I have Khmer blood and basically grew up in a Khmer family. I can barely read and write yet alone speak in Khmer. As for learning Japanese, I could have never done that alone.
