Due to the suggestions made by Heisig in Lesson 11 of the book, I have decided to revise my daily study routine. As he states, simply learning to recognize the kanji and remember their meaning is not sufficient. I must also be capable of producing the kanji handwritten with only the key word and no other reference.
- As soon as I wake, between 6:30 and 7:00 am, I wash my face, brush my teeth and sit at my desk to make the day's flash cards. When they are complete, I run through them, looking at the kanji and reciting the key word and the short story.
- Around noon, I attempt to draw the kanji by hand with only the key word as a reference. Any kanji done incorrectly, will be reshuffled and reattempted.
- Around 5:00 pm, I run through the cards once more.
- Around 8:00pm, I visit the Flash Card Exchange (This website will be detailed in depth in my next blog post). There I test myself with 50 cards from the current week's relevant lessons.
|Interestingly enough, this revised daily study routine is subject to revision|
