Do you want to know the easiest way to learn and retain knowledge for the exams?

Try this simple trick by Nobel-prize winning physicist Richard Feynman.

​

The Feynman Technique

​

1. Pick a topic you want to understand and start studying it. Write down everything you know about the topic on a notebook page, and add to that page every time you learn something new about it.

​

2. Pretend to teach your topic to a classroom. Make sure you're able to explain the topic in simple terms.

​

3. Go back to the books when you get stuck. The gaps in your knowledge should be obvious. Revisit problem areas until you can explain the topic fully.

​

4. Simplify and use analogies. Repeat the process while simplifying your language and connecting facts with analogies to help strengthen your understanding.
