Checking in for level 3, now on a 2 level streak.
Hitting the point now where I’m spreading my lessons over two days. Eighty total lessons on level up, but I’ve done this level a few times over and so it’s mainly rehashing old material - did lessons at 40 a day so as not to get bogged down.
Sure I’ll throw my hat in here. Here’s my Level 2. Missed my Level 1 post but that wasn’t particularly hard to 0/0 since no vocab yet.
So close! How are you feeling about reaching soon 60?
Another year, another reset. This time I’ll have to keep my daily reviews under control
Looking forward to having that few radicals on a level
Good question! I’m certainly feeling excited about the upcoming major milestone, but now that I’m this close, it only feels natural to happen. I’m also looking forward to the way ahead.
I’ve long been interested in using Koohi alongside my daily reading, and tried it for a few weeks at some point, but it was too much of a load to do in parallel with WK. Now that WK will have no new lessons for me soon, I feel like I’ll finally have enough time to gradually integrate it into my learning.
Honestly, I’m still amazed how much of a help WK has been. I have some prior experience with RTK and sentence mining, and I always thought that that was working to an extent, but I didn’t feel that much progress overall in my reading/listening ability past a certain point.
But with WK, contrary to a lot of feedback I’ve heard about it along the lines of teaching you useless words and being slow, I’ve been constantly feeling progress. I’ve been reading native stuff (manga, short stories and novels) for about 1.5 years now, and after starting WK, at least weekly I would notice that a word or a kanji I just came across is something I learned from WK very recently – sometimes as recently as that very day. I know that statistically this is bound to happen, but this feeling is really motivating to keep going.
Anyway, this post turned out longer than I expected Thanks for a great question! I’ve been meaning to articulate these thoughts at some point, possibly in a couple levels, once I do reach 60, but now is as good a time as any other.
Good luck with your studies, everyone! You’ll get there before you know it!
I love that feeling!
Thanks for sharing, super inspiring! It will be bitter sweet to end WK, but as you say, more room for other things is nice! Good luck too, the journey continues!
They you should look forward to the last 10 levels where they have 1 radical or none! XD
