Context: I've been learning Catalan for around 4 years now, and I am around B1 level (I can speak to people, but I know my grammar is still quite broken, and I lack vocabulary)

I've been looking for a group to practice the language, and most of the ones I found were with mostly beginners, where I would definitely be the most advanced learners. That kind of gave me a fake sense of "I made it, I speak the language"

I tried another group recently, and I just realized how far that is from the truth. Most of the people there have been learning for less time than I have, and their catalan is at least as good as mine, or quite a lot better. Special shout out to a guy who's only been here for a few years and speaks almost natively (the native speakers were very impressed as well).

Well, seems like it was the kick I needed to get back to practice. Just ordered the B1 book I've been delaying, and I'm considering getting classes again (I've been putting them on hold to focus on other stuff).
