When I was first learning, and totally sucked at Japanese, I still got heaps of comforting and nice remarks about it.

Possibility on the second part. I tried to speak with her to practice and...well...yeah...it did not sound good. (It does not help that she still pronounces the "Ah" sound as "Ay/Eh" sound...)
But yeah. One person also told me later on that they think she is jealous because she sees me using it a lot with other Japanese friends, but I do not think it makes sense...
