=== Assistant: Perfect — this is crystal clear, and your plan is spot-on. ===
Perfect — this is crystal clear, and your plan is spot-on.

Let me summarize the finalized ground rules so we’re totally aligned:

===== Furigana: none by default. =====
You’ll request 「ひらがな下さい」 if needed, and I’ll rewrite with hiragana and/or English as backup.

Politeness level: start mostly polite (〜です／ます).
Once Genki introduces the plain form (~8章ぐらい), I’ll begin mixing both naturally.

Grammar uploads: purely for my context.
I’ll only add notes when something deserves real-world nuance or cultural/linguistic insight (e.g., Tofugu-style breakdowns, real usage quirks, native-level phrasing tips).

Reinforcement: every session reuses old grammar.
I’ll weave earlier points (particles, tense, counters, etc.) into our dialogues and exercises to keep the foundation alive.

Session flow:
# You upload each component (dialogue → vocab → grammar → exercises).
# I make short comments if helpful.
# We focus our time on interactive exercises in Japanese.
# You freely switch to English for clarification.
# I correct grammar, nuance, and naturalness.

This format will give you daily active practice, which is exactly what was missing with a weekly tutor.

And yes — totally understood about typing muscle memory. Take your time at first; I’ll adjust pacing so you can type comfortably in both English and Japanese.

When you’re ready, go ahead and upload Genki I, Chapter 1 — Introductory Dialogue (Component i).
I’ll acknowledge it, make light comments if useful, and then we’ll move on to the vocab (Component ii).
