It's important to keep in mind that Japanese just takes a lot longer to learn for English speakers than, say, Spanish or Italian. Look at a Japanese 4th year textbook, and they are studying what 2nd year French students are. It takes about twice as long. So it is easy to feel like you aren't progressing, but stick with it. 3 years is more than a lot of people make it.
