Learning Kanji WELL

How do you all learn kanji?

I usually make flashcards with the kun/om on the back and then separate cards for vocabulary with compounds.

Do you have any strategies to learn both how to write the characters and learning the readings?

>>7
>>8

you are both right
you should be using flash cards, but also writing them out with your finger in the air, or on your leg (something to that extent), while using the cards.

to use an example like 8 did, ask a Japanese person how to write a difficult kanji.  i almost guarantee they will first write it in the air with their finger and then tell you how to write it
