Kanji tutorials online

[Kinsao]

Hi!
(There may already be a thread about this - I looked but couldn't find one - sorry if this is a duplicate.)

Now that my first level Japanese class has finished until September, I thought that rather than letting my learning slide, I would try and learn some basic kanji, because I can learn those by myself, it's not so important to have a class, as for the speaking and listening.

Can anyone recommend good online kanji tutorials, that start off with basic kanji and explain the stroke order and the different readings?

Many thanks!

Well when I was first learning I used this site:
The Most Common Kanji to Know

There are lots of flash card sites too, although the tuttle kanji cards were actually better.


But its certainly best to actually by a book on Kanji rather than just using the online resources, they won't be that great by themselves.

Edit: Oh, I just remembered, WWWJIDC shows animated stroke order diagrams for about 1000 Kanji too.
