Hi I have 30 minutes a day, 4 days a week to do Wanikani. Should I give up? I’m all up for going slowly and enjoy the journey as I’m not in a hurry to learn Japanese, but I’d like to see ‘some’ tangible progress down the line, you know, after a year or so. Right now, I only see stacks of reviews…

30 minutes a day is doable. The problem is the 4 days a week. Reviews will accumulate during the other 3 days and in turn increase the time needed for the other 4. If you can do 15 minutes a day every day that would be better overall even though it would be less total time per week. Like @mitavo m…

Super secret tip. Take your phone to the washroom with you (everyone does anyway), and get those extra review minutes in!!! (Tsurukame is a really good app)

I would second a lot of the advice here, particularly doing the reviews on your phone as you have time. Typing on the phone can be a pain (I have entered plenty of typos on my phone), but you can either double check everything or download a user script to override WK when you make typos (I believe …

Just go slow. There are times where I can only spend that long on WK… I just keep my apprentice really low and just do a lesson or two at a time. I’m very happy with the progress I’ve made so far.

An interesting question…lots people have already given you great answers…and ultimately it’s up to you…however…devil’s advocate here… (forgetting everything else for a moment - crabigator look away)… If you said to yourself I only have 30 min a day 4 days a week to study Kanji, would you still do i…

If you only have 30 minutes 4 days a week, is your time so limited that it would be better spent NOT studying Japanese? If not, I’d say continue. I ended up taking around 6 years to reach level 60, part of that included significant periods of time not unlike yours. Even doing it only 50% of the week…

[image] sansarret: Do you study Japanese beyond WaniKani? This is an absolutely valid question. I really like that you’ve brought it up. @nickburner san: technically, 30 minutes / per day on WK (even only half of the week) could work. Couple of days during the week I only can do one session …

[image] Tanne: the Do-10-Approach While 90% of my reviews are at a desk, The Flaming Durtle app has made a big difference with my ability to catch up when I get behind. Especially after I found the option to limit each review session to 10 items. Before that, less so, because the sessions …

[block tendou haikyu] Nope. A year of 30 minutes a day, four days a week is still better than none. The key is to not overdo lessons. Maximize what you can do in those 30 minutes. Hopefully you can increase it later when you have more time. All the best. :nerd_face: :steam_locomotive: …

Hi! Yes I did read kokoro at level 12~13, just the first 3 chapters. A bit of a masochistic move, but it really caught my interest at the time! I hope to continue it in the future with more grammar points/vocab under my belt. @nickburner - I probably spend about the same time a day total on WK, not…

I've got 30 minutes/day to do Wanikani, Mon-Thursday. Should I give up?
