Interested to hear your thoughts on how you all remember how to write Kanji.

Do you:

A. Write them over and over to remember them?

B. Analyse radicals to give the Kanji meaning?

C. Use an image to symbolise a Kanji

D. Fluke it?!

Personally I do both A, B, C, and D haha.

In my case I did an intensive Heisig course throughout his book 1 and now the 2.
I have learned that it is actually really helpful to assign mnemonics and stories to every single character, for eventually they fade away and the character itself remains.
After you finish just keep doing the repetitions until you star Remembering The Kanji 2. Once you start with the vocabulary I believe it is not really important to remember the english meaning.

Hope it helped in some way!
