There's no reason you shouldn't be able to learn all of the Hiragana and Katakana in a week or less. I made flash cards for all of them and started with Hiragana. Take three days to learn all of them front and back (be able to know how to say しゅ and be able to write kyo etc.) then do the same for Katakana. I took my flashcards literally everywhere with me and just reviewed them whenever I was waiting for something. On day seven you should mix them all up and go through all of them knowing each one and if it's Hiragana or Katakana.


That's how I learned, at least.


Oh. And it also helps if you come up with stupid sayings for the ones you can't remember very well (よ looks like a YO-yo, etc.)
