The Feynman Technique

I just used Feynman Technique to learn Feynman Technique

"step 1- choose a topic and start studying it"... But that is the biggest problem

1. Find a topic you want to learn 2. Study it 3. Take a piece of paper and write down everything you just learned as if you're teaching it to someone else. By doing this, you can find out what you have forgotten and come back to study it again. 4. After you've done everything, write it all in a simpler manner, which means use simpler words.

No chit chat. No long introduction. Straight to the point. Thank you.

If you know two languages, it's perfect for this. Read it in one and be able to explain it in the other; then you've mastered it.

To teach is to learn twice.

One of the best suggestions I ever heard for a college student was, “Don’t worry about the topic. Find out who the best teachers are. Even if you think the topic is boring, a great teacher can make it interesting. Likewise, even if you think a topic is interesting, a lousy teacher can make it as dull as dishwater. Also, keep in mind for your own life the subtitle of Gandh’s Autobiography: “My Experiments in Living.” Be willing to try things. Even if you end up pursuing another career, nothing you ever learn will be wasted. You’ll be intellectually richer and a more interesting person.

Teaching it in your own words make the explanation your own and when something belongs to YOU it is highly rememberable and understandable. Thank you for the lesson

This would be perfect if I had 2 months for every exam!

That’s why you shouldn’t be mad when a classmate asks you a question before an exam. If you can explain it to him, you should have no problems with the exam.

I took a study skills class my first semester in college and this concept was taught as part of the curriculum. That class turned out to be paramount to my success in college. It sounds strange but learning how to learn is a good idea. I am glad I took the course.

Feynman: first study the topic Me: you lost me there

I did Feynman Technique this whole time?? I thought I was a narcissistic person for pretending to do a presentation like in ted x lol

I'm impressed at how long this video seemed even though it was only 2 minutes long.

While in college I rewrote all of my textbooks and incorporated relevant lecture material all in simpler language in what I called my study guide. It served me well.

If I apply this tecnique to study, the length of a day must be 50 hours.

The best way to learn something is to prepare to teach it. Didn't know this was the Feynman technique but it definitely works.

I find this technique just after I graduated... fuckin thanks a lot YouTube

I am a physics graduate and in my college lab there was a picture of Feynman on the wall. I had read about him. I always found myself staring at the photograph , so deeply do I admire the man.

Can we take the time to appreciate the talent of the person drawing. Damn my hand hurts for him😩
