Take heart, it's actually not as complex as it appears at first glance, and could definitely be harder. Usually, with language learning, you hit walls, and you struggle for a while, but then you have a breakthrough and it all makes sense.
Keep at it, and don't get discouraged. It will do wonders for your brain and for you as a person.

gh5908, I've found that it helps to watch Russian TV on Netflix or Prime Video, in order to hear a variety of people speaking the language. Its also kind of cool when you hear words or phrases you recognize from your lessons:-)
If a singular word ends in ь, the plural version of it will end in и instead of ы :)
as far as i know Вот means "here" in the sense of it's being present in the immediate surroundings so it wouldn't cut it as a substitute for "this".
Not sound "Ч" (ch), but Мягкий "Т", soft sound T, because after "Т" - letter E, vowel "Е", it softens hard "Т". Also softens the Rassian letter "И", for example, ТИ , - in words - ТИр, деТИ, ТИм. As in the word "TEA"
I have checked on forvo and Google and there it sounds like [d], which is what I was expecting. I'm checking pronunciation too often for Russian unfortunately :/
So Эти = These... Это = These are, This, This is and Is this? Этот = That..., That is, Is That?
That is wrong.
1) Тетрадь is the singular form and it is a feminine noun, so it would require моя instead of мое.
2) This Russian sentence is in the plural. The nominative plural possessive pronoun Мои sounds different from the nominative singular possessive pronouns and the plural form тетради sounds different from the singular form тетрадь.
