@allenl9214
thank you for all your tips... large part of finishing school successfully is good study techniques and habits. i was terrible in that. your videos give me new confidence in returning to school and finishing what I had abandoned
@stoicfloor
I would say that you don't need to limit the use of Feynman Technique to only complicated and difficult concepts. You can use this technique basically for everything you want to remember and understand better. Feynman Technique is basically self-testing, summarizing and self-explaining. The act of explaining in a simpler language is very beneficial for remembering it better and better comprehension. Great video! Just subbed!

Interesting. I never realised there was a name for my study method. One method I used was creating songs out of concepts...now that worked for me in med school.

Just before the AP Chemistry test in high school, a classmate who had struggled in the class asked me to help her study for the exam. When we sat down to study, I realized I didn’t have a very good grasp of the material myself. But just as the video described, the process of explaining it to her revealed my limits and forced me to learn what I needed in order to explain it to her. I don’t remember how she did on the test, but I was the only one in the class to get the top score even though there were several others in the class with better test scores than me throughout the year.

I am a pre-medical student. I use this technique to understand difficult things. It really helps.
@lindakarner1430
I have used this in my teaching, but I learned it from Isaac Azimov, who said something to the effect that if you can' t explain something to your grandmother you don't understand it. This saying has informed all my teacher prep, and I do collect kudos for my teaching. Now I have a video to pass this along as a study technique!! Yessssssss!!
@DudeWhoSaysDeez
I did not know there was a name for this until recently. But i have been using a similar technique ever since i was in highschool. 1. one technique I use is seeing how simple I can make a process, and then add the complexity back in. 2. the second technique I have used (and am using currently as an undergrad) is studying ahead such that I know where the current content is leading me. This works really well if you hit a tough patch in your learning. If you look ahead in your education and see where the material is heading, it gives you a good idea on what material is necessary and what is not too important (similar to high yield vs low yield topics).

This channel is simply amazing. I am a college incoming freshman and I've learned so much to prepare me for this fall. I'm stuck on whether to major in biology with pre-med because that's the "typical route" or political science because it's what I enjoy.
@jmlnursing1084
Thank you for awesome video! I love Richard Feynman!
@sherkhan_5050
Glad I found your channel, nobody mentioned when to use and when not to use except you. I watched lot of videos of this technique, I tried to apply for all my different subjects, memorisation (which I shouldn't as you said). Thanks a lot!
@darkrebel123
i have used this technique several times. when i took cal 1 i wasn't satisfied with the mainstream explanation of what integration is actually doing, with rectangles approaching infinitesimal width, so i reverse engineered the process in order to understand it better, i broke it into much more basic terms, and discovered that it is a simplistically complex way of adding dimensions by simply multiplying delta-y by delta-x like you would a square or rectangle. now i will never in my life forget how to integrate, and it is much easier to use integration now that i understand it in almost childish terms.
@FluoGray
Just found out your channel, subscribed 'cause it's dope. I started using the Feynman technique years and years ago and only now I found out it's got a name..
@studykendrick2029
Going to try this out with respiratory and cardiovascular system exam coming up.
@shootnscore26
if you can teach it, you have mastered it. Not only is verbal explanation active, it incorporates more of the 5 senses in the learning process. Visual, Auditory, motor (speech), an emotional connection, and sometimes even tactile input can reinforce the material. Just going from 2 inputs to 3 increase retention from 30% to like 65% (according to a stat I had in a learning tutorium). I had 2 friends that I studied with, but we made sure we learned the material on our own first, then before exams we would test, quiz, explain, remind, explain again, make connections with current topic to something we discussed hours before; just to trigger memory and make more associations. It worked so well, that one of us would get top score in the class a lot of the time and all 3 of us were in the top percentile on a regular basis. Currently I am studying medicine in Germany and part of our board exams is oral, so explaining verbally will prepare for that part of the exam; which is the most daunting as you sit in front of 3 professors and have a chat for 3 hours....
@krystalbeauty2234
Thank you! So helpful, definetely using these teqhniques in college!:)
@raq1205
Thank you so much I will definitely be using this in my math classes! I was using this teaching method without even thinking about when I taught kids simple math skills but my ACT math score went up three points after consistently teaching others math, without even having a math class at the time. To any high schoolers out there--start using this technique as early as possible!
@TheinMoka
Like you I used the Feynman technique without knowing it had a name. But it is the most helpful way to study Physics (I'm in Physics grad school) I've never tried it as a group study so thats some great advice!
@ocdgaming8964
I am studying aerospace engineering and this technique helps A LOT
