Don't worry, not understanding is the first step! I can't believe you translated my post. You flatter me haha.
because you don't have a fried who is a native speaker, I really suggest using the app "hello-talk" and getting the foreign version of "we-chat". Hello-talk is a monetized to hell and back but there are many many native speakers looking to practice English. So using that to find some people who you can vibe with and then talking with them on we-chat is how I made my language partner (and now great friend) who I've known for going on 3 years. I think this is important as otherwise you might chat with me and even though it's passable sometimes I'm still going to teach you the mistakes I make when speaking or writing. Besides living in China, I think this method is the best and, moreover, then you maybe have some one to meet when you visit.
Side note: I think your progress is remarkable for one month. It's very impressive work! 加油!💪
Thanks much for the callout to HelloTalk! I’ve spent the last few days chatting away with people, and I’ve learned a ton. Everyone is so kind and friendly too!
