About pitch accent I hear really late, before I thought Japanese is more or less monotone.
Unfortunaly I`m anyway really bad in speaking languages, I can`t even speak German accentfree. (Sure slowly I see the differences between Swiss German and Standard German, but learning new way of speaking isn`t that easy)
My Japanese university (桜美林大学) offered one while I was there, but I opted not to take it. Now I wish I had.
