Review #4 | Anki Deck | Learn Japanese For Free

This week's review is for the Ankideck #2894932. I would recommend the Deck for beginner to intermediate levels of learner who are following the Heisig/RTK method to learn Kanji.

Who

This Anki deck is part of an older learning method created by Niko from NativShark who I believe has since moved onto a new learning programme which embarrsingly I cannot remember or find the email detailing all that!

What 

I personally recommend this deck as it is essentially a free version which follows Heisig's methodology which is incredibly time saving. You may want to make your own primitives list, but this should take an few hours at most, as there are only a few hundred of these. 

Why

When I tell you, the number of hours and years I wasted writing, rewriting and forgetting Kanji, trust me this just works a whole lot better to have at your fingertips than having to manually find, write and remember 2500 different Kanji entries from the RTK series books, which are unfortunately, not free, but they are pretty cheap and a definite buy if you are serious about learning in my opinion.

The deck is simply a learning tool, but it does just make life easier overall, and Heisigs method is also proven to work, and a very popular method amongst self-taught learners as well, unlike as my friends going through the Degree route to learn Japanese have informed me, that they simply rote learn their way through Kanji but come out the other end unable to even hold a basic conversation at the end as their entire learning time was spent wasted on learning banal or exam related work. So if you are coming to this project on the back of that, Hi! Welcome to the start of being able to find resources for free and that you can actually apply to real life situations.
