Keep Calm and Kanji Vol 1 Robert Everman

Learning kanji can be one of the most intimidating barriers to studying Japanese, not just for the beginner but at all levels. Actually retaining the kanji you painstakingly memorize can be even more frustrating. Once you think you?ve finally got it down this time, it's gone again! Don't panic. Keep Calm and Kanji is here to help you efficiently structure your study by constructing a productive, yet adaptable, routine which balances consistency and flexibility. This book will guide you through small chunks of just 10 kanji per day, reserving the weekends for review and catch up. This book invokes the power of the Pareto principle, context-based learning, and spaced repetition to maximize results and focus energy on only that which is important. All kanji in this guide are presented in order of frequency rank. By the end of the first volume you will have covered 500 of the most frequent kanji which accounts for nearly 75% of the total kanji used out in the wild. Now take a deep breath. Keep Calm and Kanji!
