Hello everyone !
I am currently studying japanese following genki (at lesson 3) and i like it. Before starting this I already learned hiragana and katakana using Heisig's method. I learned hiragana in 1 day (same with katakana) including the stroke order etc.
I am now at the point in genki where they start introducing kanji and I really want to learn it the heisig way because it sticks like krazyglue and I know it works wonders for me.
I've done some reading on heisig and also read his introduction and I've got one problem with it, which is, it doesnt teach you the readings (and thus the pronounciation) of the character.
Now... my idea was to start heisig and learn the readings at the same time. I know this will slow it down, but I think it'll make me feel less like i've learned only half there is. So basically, I'll try and learn it the heisig way, meaning and writing, and in addition learn the on- and kun-readings.
I really appreciate any feedback on this :)
