Factors To Make Your Speed Learning - Accelerate Your Learning

Learning More Efficient

 Factors To Make Your Learning More Efficient
❖ In order to accelerate your learning we need
to first of all properly schedule and organize
your learning.
❖ Important factors to notice:
❖ Attention Span (relative to subject and
interest in subject)
❖ Psychological Learning (logical
combination: math-english-chemistry;
illogical combination: math-physics-
chemistry)
❖ Personal Timetable, Habits & Goals
Leon Chaudhari

Attention Span Speed Learning - Accelerate Your Learning

 Attention Span
❖ Attention span is relative to daily happenings; If you study a lot or work a lot every day, your
attention span will decrease on that day but will increase in the long term

80 100
60 75
40 50
20 25
0 0

❖ NOTE: Skill comes from intelligence and repetition. Your brain is like a muscle. The more often
you work it out, the stronger it will get. Thus, the more you study, the better at studying you will
become.

Short, Middle & Long-Term Speed Learning - Accelerate Your Learning

Learning
 Short, Middle & Long-Term Learning

❖ SHORT TERM LEARNING

❖ Quick repetitive learning, using the front part of your
brain, less methods, simply taking in knowledge
❖ MIDDLE TERM LEARNING
❖ Less repetition, more individualization of learning
methods (the more methods of learning, the better)
❖ LONG TERM LEARNING
❖ Review-based learning, using Software tools like Anki

Learning Methods - Using Speed Learning - Accelerate Your Learning

Different Kinds of Material

Learning Methods - Using Different Kinds of Material
❖ Try to split up the knowledge you have to study with different types of media.
❖ Example: Learning vocabulary
❖ #1: Speak the vocabulary in a memo and listen to it on the go/car/in bed
❖ #2: Create sound data bases: Which words sound similar to the ones you need
to study? Write these words next to the words you need to study!
❖ #3: Use Anki (software application) to remember words, pictures etc.
❖ #4: Write down the vocabulary as often as you can (and change the order)

Repetition
Leon Chaudhari

The Importance of
Repetition
> The most simple hack of them all: REPEAT, REPEAT,
REPEAT!


> Often, there is no magic formula to studying quickly
except than studying effectively

> One must whole-heartedly analyze their own studying

behavior and afterwards adapt the studying habits that
create the greatest benefit for them

higher concentration level and ensures
longer studying
❖ Try to study differently every day

The Incredible Chewing Speed Learning - Accelerate Your Learning

Gum Hack & Its Applications

The Incredible Chewing Gum Hack & Its Applications
❖ Just a year ago, a study discovered that if
you chew chewing gum while you study
and you chew that chewing gum (of the
same flavor) again in the exam, you are
likely to remember 13% more of what you
learned.
❖ This does not just apply for chewing gum
but any kind of flavory product (e.g.
lemonade, bread, deodorant, perfume etc.).
Important is only that the product must be
consumed constantly while studying and
while writing the exam.
