Hey everyone, I'm a noob on this forum, so sorry for any misguided ignorance.
I suppose Im in a unique situation (the Japanese learning stats that I have) for myself, so I didnt check if anyone has asked my question because they probably haven't.
I have been working through japaneselevelup.com's kanji deck in which RTK 1 and 3 are combined into about 1900 kanji that are the most useful out of all 3000+.
I am using the Reviewing the Kanji website to learn as well as review, so to finish the deck will be fairly simple.
My question is however, after I finish this deck of combined kanji, what should I do?
Background for myself:
I grew up in Japan; as well as speak pretty basic, but I suppose pretty useable Japanese with my family at home, so I have a natural understanding (but not in-depth knowledge, i.e. names of rules) of grammar. My pronunciation is not flawless but pretty good as well. Grammar, pronunciation, and understanding (hearing) Japanese are my biggest strong points. However, because I never really bothered to engage in learning Japanese till now, these are the things that I must improve on:
1. Learning more vocabulary to use with my good grammar (to have more intelligent conversation, understand more complex readings)
2. Learning the writing system well (kanji in this case)
3. After learning the individual kanji, learn compounds and readings
That being said, I have not started any kind of vocab/sentence deck. I only have my combined anki deck and that's it.
So to go more in depth with my question, I would like to ask you guys, who Im sure are very experienced, what I should start with in my situation. I have around 800 kanji down right now, but most readings I dont know, and my vocabulary is fairly simple. Maybe around 1000-2000 words. Also, I have access to lots of legit Japanese material. Light novels, actual novels, manga, anime, that sort of thing. As well as access to many dictionaries.
Any Anki decks you recommend? Systems? Ways to learn? After my 1900 kanji deck, where should I go to get to around 3000+ proficiency while learning readings at the same time? Thanks for the help everybody.
