Help! With Japanese Phrases

Hey.

I am about a advance beginner in Japanese and would like to start having conversations with other native speakers over SKype.

However there are some phrases I would like to be able to say in Japanese, so if anyone could help me with translating the following phrases to Japanese: That would be great.

 

P.S. Preferrable write them using Kanji (w/furigana) or totally in hiragana. I don't do romanji well. Thanks!

 

Phrases:

 

-Can you type what you just said out for me?

 

-Thank you for talking with me.

 

-My Japanese speaking skills are bad but I undersatnd everything you are saying.

 

-No need to switch to English.

 

-Sorry I didn't catch that. Can you say the same thing over again.

 

-I have been learning Japanese for X.

(X being a time period like 6 months, 2 years, 1 year)

 

-The hardest part about learning Kanji is that outside of Japan it has few chances to read Kanji, so it is hard to remember the Kanji that you learned. 

 

Thanks again guys for helping. And if anyone has any other phrases that they feel might help someone out in a conversation please feel free to share!
