@Brutha Thanks for the suggestion.
Yes, I’ve taken the course, and I’ll tell you, everything you need to know is in GMS manual. The course only contains exercises. Every technique works, but I don’t think you can learn more faster
with it. For example text memorization does not work word for word, you only memorize ideas. Also it’s very slow so I don’t use it. BTW, I saw you on nlpweekly forum, I think Shlomo got also disappointed with it.
From the course:
“
The technique is pretty laborious
and detailed memorization is possible only if performed little by little, during a study year, for example.
About 2 history texts in a week.”
It works good with vocabulary learning. It’s possible to memorize 100 words a day, but it’s not easy. You must make a list of those 100 words, spend 2-3 hours memorizing them and review them for the next 3-4 days.
@Tasaio Yes, I started with RTK and was very exited to find a book like that. I learned first hundred kanji with it in a month, and then I found the course at pmemory.com. When I read the free e-book on their site it became clear to me that there is a much better way to learn kanji than making stories.
Please, read the book, and than confront me about RTK being “silly”. I didn’t want to offend anyone. I just think that if Heisig knew about Gms course his book would be much better.

Also, you are suggesting that I stop using my method which enabled me to learn the meanings of 1000 kanji in 2.5 months.
I’m not a liar, and I assure you it works 100% for me. I’m now taking a break because I’m reviewing them, and, guess what, I rarely have trouble remembering them. Maybe our memory is different. You should use what works best for you.
