How to ACTUALLY learn Japanese with flashcards - Learn 2x faster!

Traditional education is based around passing tests, and this mindset leads to inefficient learning. The real "test" is whether you can use Japanese to do the things that are important to you. This video talks about how to approach flashcards so that they work with you, rather than against you.

How to learn more words with the same amount of time/effort
How flashcards and immersion feed into and support each other
When you should make a flashcard for a new word or grammar point, and when you could move on
What SRS tools like Migaku Memory, Anki, or Memrise do and don't do for you

Perhaps most importantly: flashcards should be supporting, but not replacing, your immersion.
