Effective Study Techniques

Feynman Technique

Feynman technique, it's a simple process, containing 4 repeatable steps:
Step 1 – Study. The first step is easy.
Step 2 – Teach. Once you've completely covered the topic, it's time for step 2.
Step 3 – Fill the Gaps. As I mentioned, step 2 will uncover some gaps in your knowledge.
Step 4 – Simplify.

Leitner System

Leitner System, you need to do three things:
  • Create electronic or physical flashcards (one card per concept)
  • Label three to five electronic or physical boxes with study time periods (e.g., Box 1 for cards to be reviewed every day; Box 2 for cards to be reviewed every other day, etc.).
  • Add your study times to your calendar for organizational purposes.
