How to solidify Genki I?

Just finished Genki I books, but I feel all the grammar is kinda mixed in my head and do not feel to proceed further just yet. Is there any way or a different book, which can help to solidify the knowledge? I selfstudy and once a week I have a japanese tutor, but he speaks mostly japanese and it is sometimes difficult to explain what I need.

Hiking trails near Solleftea/Kramfors or Arlanda - Sweden

Hello, are there any multiday hikes near those places in Sweden? I am looking in the map, but all I can see are bike routes, or hiking trails along the pavement roads, or really short walks. Do you have any tips for the trails in the nature, please? 80km+ Thank you :)

Communication with architects

While I was studying design, often I heard remarks on a different approach of architects and designers, not in a very good way. I was kinda ignoring it until I a time had come to cooperate with an architect. He has such illogical and impractical way of thinking that I am amazed with his every email. Is this common for all architects like in all jokes I heard before, or is it just mine? How do you deal with such situations and what is the best strategy to open the mind and view of an architect? How to persuade him to make things usable and comfortable for a client and not to fight for his esthetic (which is of course very subjective and not surprisingly I do not agree with...) way of doing things?

Am I the only one who totally melts when Wakatakakage puts on this look just before the tachiai? 🥰😍

Makushita matches after Juryo entering

Just a little question... why there are makushita matches after Juryo rikishis are introduced? I realized it only this basho, when I watch also the Juryo division because of Midorifuji.

Finishing Genki I, but do not feel progress

I would like to ask for an advice, how to feel the progress or how to change my style of studying.

Soon I will go through the whole Genki I textbook+worbook, but I do not feel the excercies are enough to get the materials into my brain. After each lesson I understand it and can go through all excercises. But I do not feel I am able to decide when to use which grammar pattern to be able to speak. And in communication I feel I would use basic words and verbs only.

First half of Genki I did myself (2 months of everyday study, including separate kanji study), then I found a teacher (japanese native) for lessons in person (6 months, 2 lessons a month, everyther day stayding at home, including separate kanji study).

How can I get some overview about all the materials I learnt so far? Is there any source for addional exercises, which kind of interetwine gramatical patterns on this level?

Or would you suggest any other style of studying? Arigatoo Gozaimasu 🙏
