No, т is wrong again (р is wrong of course too). it must be like French t for example,
not English. The tip of your tongue must be at the bottom of your upper teeth, not
alveolars.
You can record a piece of a text, so that your problems became more evident.

Oh God. I do not think I will ever muster up the courage and put myself out there and actually say anything in Russian in public!

Well I just had a conversation on Skype with a Russian who said that I said everything
wrong. I don't know what to do >< I learned German with self study, but is it even
possible to do so with Russian?

You mean pronounced wrong or made grammar mistakes or used wrong words?

Well what I said was correct mainly because it memorized but the pronunciation was all
wrong.

How do you train your pronunciation? I think you have to read good descriptions and to
follow them.
