Ooofff fuck, no I __need__ tips lol. Though I'm short of time right now (PhD + a job) so language learning has been on the back burner. I never found Duolingo helpful except in learning characters but Anki being better. But I have no better tips than that. I tried learning Chinese a few years back and found a language book and getting an iTalki tutor were infinitely better than any apps or any self study. I don't think you can do it without some tutor (even your gf).
