Summary:
Input (Encoding, Understand):
Strategy: Structuring-> make connections, relate new things to prior knowledge. Ex: If you are trying to learn Pre-calc, you must know the prerequisites (Algebra, geometry, maybe Pre-calc). If you know them it’ll be much easier to make relationships between the concepts (structure)
Technique: teaching->Feynman Technique (teach from the layout of your structure)
Method: Mixing->use many resources (use different learning styles & methods). AT THE END OF THE DAY, WHAT REAllY IS CRITICAL IS THAT YOU UNDERSTAND!
Output (Retrieval, Remember):
Stategy: To remember faster, use Spacing->space out your reviews, some topics take longer to master than others. Rank how well you know each topic; for instance don’t waste your time on things you already know instead focus on things you don’t know ~90% of what you are doing.
Technique: Active Recall (testing)->Recall w/o any resources, it’s hard but it works! Practice tests and flashcards are good ideas.
Method: Memorizing is the method used to remember lots of information at a high intensity->it’s not the best for long-term memory, but sometimes you have to remember only for the test (e.g. equations, people, dates, places) Mnemonics, Memory Palace, and Chunking are some types of memorizing. NOT EVERYTHING MUST BE MEMORIZED, If you really understand a concept you don’t have to memorize it.
You are a life saver. Thanks a lot.
Great
thank youuu ❤️❤️ apparently @Idk you know something 🙄😂💕
Thanks!
Tysm 🙏
Try to be the hardest worker in the room and one day you may be the most successful person in the room 📚😀❤️ good luck everyone!
Hardest and smartest worker*
in many cases it takes hard work to find out how to work “smarter”
I’m the only person in the room 😎
@@CajunKoiAcademy yes
Work smarter not harder
I feel that spacing is one of the hardest parts in grad school. I will get 10-15 lectures in one week and then an exam on that material the following week, and thats only in 1 class. So being able to space things out appropriately seems to be a struggle of mine. Anyone else have this and know how to best “space things” when you have such a limited timeframe?
i usually use Anki and it spaces it out for me and also find creating a study timetable and a weekly plan to space things out accordingly - not sure if this will help in your case but you can give it a try if you dont do these things already
@@heyyy7713 I do have Anki and I use it when I can, but I feel that I end up spending all my study time to make the cards without actually studying them. Pre-made decks are nice, but often times my professors will pull questions specifically from their slides which may not be covered in the decks. I feel like I’m stuck in this loop of trying to figure out what’s truly high yield and balance what little time I have to study/make cards.
Planning seems to help, but another issue I have with my program is that we have adjunct professors coming in to teach most of our lectures and often times they don’t release their PowerPoint lectures until the day of. This makes it hard for me to plan ahead and organize my weekly planning of sorts. Not sure what else to do tho
@@medlife2458 I tend to make my anki cards during the lecture, taking the title slide for the question and the slide content as the answer. I do edit some of the answers when studying to make it more conscise but I don’t spend more than 5 mins doing this
@@elizabethxavier943 I like this idea! I’ll have to give it a try. Do you do a sub header as the question if the header is broad and on multiple slides?
its like that for me as well since my college does 7 week classes instead of a full semester
I'm going to take a 1 week challenge ..not only study but also health and exercise.. I've got this ..thanks guys!!
Do it! And hopefully turn it into lifestyle, not just 1 week 😎
Hey ,its been a week since your comment, did you complete the challenge?
@@dinasham1599 it was hard ..but I'm tried ..many things were left out ..I'm trying to accomplish them this week
@@srivallimusicbeats3806 did you accomplish the other things ?
@@srivallimusicbeats3806 its more than a month now, how's your progress?
This videos is full of golden info, many of the things you've said I've been doing them uncounciously like: teaching, mixing and spacing. I'm so grateful that there's people organizing this ideas for us students cause it's totally worth it to know them. Creating systems is even harder but now we have a lot of resources to understand how.
Only 23 seconds in and I can tell that it's going to be an awesome video ! You two deserve way much more subscribers !
just have to speak out a huge THANK YOU brothers! u guys were the reason I got interested in RemNote in the first place and changed my whole way of learning and organizing myself. Just became a RemNote supporter with the Pro plan and will definitely promote it to people around me as well... thanks to all the team for making this great thing possible. Keep up the good and hard work to evolve, explore, and finally become the leading note taking application that cares for privacy too. thank you!
Who else here is trying to master study techniques instead of actually studying 😂😂
Great advice, thanks Mike and Matty! Good luck with your studying, everyone!
Random but I love how all the points I a line start with the same letter, like strategy structure spacing (and the square!)
It's pretty cool :)
Thanks Big Bro Mike and Matty your videos help me a lot (also taking pre-med course)
That's awesome! What do you like about medicine? Was it your dream or a choice after school? What do you want to specialize in?
It is hard to take good notes during a class that swings through the topics. I have my finance class that does this, and I take some notes, but it is so hard to keep up with it. I just try to pay as much attention as possible and try to assimilate the lecture to things that I have heard of before or can relate to. It has helped me get through school quite a bit.
Also: if you need to remember equations/definitions/steps use a lot of acronyms. I use single letters to represent a word in an equation or step. I end up remembering that set of letters that go with the equation/list and I can then decode which letters mean which - it has gotten me out of a lot of pressing situations.
I struggle with the same issue, majority of my professors swing through lectures and I try to write down as much as possible but at the end of the day I end up not using or reviewing my notes because of how unorganized and confusing they are. I need help what do do? :(
@@hanoafalnasser8456 IDK if I can help you, but have you tried looking at their syllabus? That you could give you pointers on the organization.
I'd also make friends with someone there that seems to know what they're doing.
Transcription idea
You could take pictures of the PowerPoint (with their permission) so that you don't have to worry about transcribing and you focus on understanding. Software like OneNote, Notion, or something similar is quite helpful with this.
You could also go to office hours or tutoring sessions to help you out.
Hope that helps
These techniques actually work! My grades improved by applying active recall methods (self-quizzes, flashcards, practice problems).I discovered that reading books over and over is just useless. Rather, I try to view studying for exams as a way to retrieve information from my brain because that's basically what you're gonna do during an test (hence why practice is key).
Hey the spoke about a downloadable guidebook? Where can I find the link?
Thank you 😊 much
Respect 🥰🙏
Thank you so much!
omg ily so much got boards in 2months this is gonna help so much tanks
2 steps to learning : understand and remember
Understand :
- Structuring : structure the information so the brain do the same. Brain likes to take new things and relate them to prior knowledge. Make connections with other topics to have better understanding of the subject
- Teaching : forces yourself to understand the topic in order to explain it in a simple language (in your own words) to someone or even to yourself
- Mixing : use ≠ resources, get the same information from other sources : youtube videos, friends, textbooks, other teachers, podcasts. What matters is you understand
Remember :
- Spacing : to remember something faster, space out your study sessions. Cramming isn’t useful in longterm. Some topics demand more time than others. At the end of each review, rank how well you know this chapter in order to prioritise your weak points
- Testing : active recall is testing yourself without reading, highlighting your notes. Do past papers, practice problems, exercises,…
- Memorising : some piece of information needs to be memorised (dates, equations, names,…) with techniques like mnemonics, mind palace, the peg system, chunking but not everything must be memorised, if you have a really good understanding of the topic, you can easily find it
I'm only studying for to be an MA right now. No where NEAR as hard as actual med school for doctors, or even nurses. But I've subscribed and your videos are inspiring and informative. Definitely giving me a boost of confidence that I chose the right field for a career. Thank you guys!
hey is it necessary to purchase the skill share subscription to watch the course
Same here, I'm studying just to be a PTAIDE however the real challenge has been learning to learn. I enjoy learning but have always found it very difficult. MikeandMatty have been super helpful. Good luck as an MA 👏
@@scastellanos7923 You’re studying to be a PT aide or PT assistant? I’m an aide and did not need a degree. I would need a degree for an assistant though.
@@andrewritter1177 Yea, PTAIDE. My community college here in Texas offers a small online course. I know I can receive on the job training, but I just wanted to get familiar with it first.
Going to try this with my career transition from healthcare to tech.
A Video on how you use your Mac or the apps on the laptop for studying! Please
Absolutely siiick editing guys.
Will send credz where due
My learning approach-😅

what do you think?
Pretty good attempt! I'll make a video soon filling in some of the gaps you overlooked or the parts of the research that aren't really correct :)
Really excited for that
Haha thanks Justin! Love your content too and am stoked to see what you come up with. Let’s explore this space together
Thank you
I have to study from a book, it had lots of information and it's hard to learn the definition of Administration and the characteristics, etc.
Which method should i use?
Watching this 1 day before exam. 😭
You got these bro 🙏
When I was just reading my notes over and over again before the test, I've found myself remembering the actual page layout during that test. Not very efficient in 90% of the cases
Great integration of skillshare here first time I actually want to use it
Other than on video on skillshare is there anyother way we could get to know more about this . Please let me know ,i would love to .
I guess this is my sign to start studying for my AP test.
How do u structure? take notes?
struggling engineering student here at university, just signed up for your skill share class and hopefully get my life straight
Uni is nothing like school, the pressure and learning can be daunting. I've been struggling, but this channel has helped a lot. Best of luck 👏
My friend and I was just talking about needing to find a way to study better in nursing
We gotchuu guys!
you're*
I honestly love u guys and this channel is a godsend but it had to be said
I have been subscribed to you both for a while and started to use RemNote. Results....exponential, sky-rocketing, absolutely life-changing. Thank you for the videos!
Amazing! Thanks for sharing and let’s keep going
Can these strategies be used on problem-based courses like general chemistry?
You guys are legends definitely needed this for university which is quite soon!
Thanks Tarbs! Your journey just about to start
2 ways to learn
strategy to understand: structure
technique to understand: teaching
method to understand: mixing
strategy to remember: spacing
technique to remember: testing
method to remember: mixing
I needed this video yall
Sheeeesh! Your editing skills are CLEARLY enhanced after a few months
they spoke about a downloadable guidebook? Where can I find the link?
Perfect as always
Your videos are always motivated me thank you so much 😇
Waiting For the course since a long time . Satisfied 👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks for your patience, it’s here!
Is there an updated v. for this?
Looked like Niklas Christl editing for a second
I was wondering the difference between technique, strategy and method
Thank you guys so much for the videos! It really encourages me to study. I'm having exams tomorrow.
Best of luck 🤞 you got this
You both rock!♾⭐
😎🙏🏻
You totally transformed the way I approach my study sessions. Love your content, keep going!
😎 love to hear it!
Don't let what
you cannot do
interfere with
what you can do.
Their is one thing you can do you know 👀👀
Hi!, what if one start to study algebra and only have 2 hours lesson 3 times a week and after 3 weeks has exame :( how do one learn all that info from bad teacher and this friday has exam and still dont know anything basically :( what app like anki is best to learn and study math/ algebra with ?
please help me im really losing it here and days are passing by and i will not make this algebra course that have only 10 weeks to complete before final international exam :( im from sweden btw
YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING!!!!
Gratzi 😉
Can someone re explain the structure part plz
Its about making connections between the topics that you learn. When you're learning sth new, ask yourself where that fits in the big picture, how it connects to the various other thgs you already know. The brain stores information in a kind of huge mind map, and the more connections you make across the bits and pieces of information you have, ie the more you figure out where that topic fits in the bigger structure, that not only strengthens your understanding of the topic, it also ingrains it in your long term memory faster.
I love 70000th study tutorial, not confusing at all! THANK YOU
Hey, it's saying that the course is free, then why i have to pay the amount to skill share?
For me it's the other way around!! ABOUT THE CALCULUS
how can I balance watching anime and studying
Please send more Info
Sorry to ask this on TH-cam but on RemNote, how do you make a multiple choice card?
As in with multiple answers? Type three colons and if you want a "numbered list" (like steps) then type two colons followed by a "1" then a period "."
Well I was trying to get into the 7 day program but its showing I have to pay 1923 to get it...?
I needed this so bad you guys are really the best study youtubers!
hmm looks like you finally got to Justin Sung
i turned out to be on Tora club 😳 tbh i never expected that
Do I need to have Wi-Fi to work with the remnote app ?! I'm facing some problems with my computer and it doesn't want to connect to my Wi-Fi but i'm scared if I right my notes on remnote i'll loose them because i'll be working without any Wi-Fi please answer me quickly I have exams in a couple of weeks 😭
No u don't
Is the link active now
Nice
I am waiting for remnote in ipad😇
The beasts are back back with another video😁
❤️
I love your videos guys, but this one just didn't do it for me. It felt forced and it seemed to just meander towards being an ad for the skillshare course. I'm subscribed, notified on each video, and frequently enjoy them, but this one didn't have your usual genuine feel.
I'm going to take this course as soon as possible
Doooo it
You guys are the best
😏😏
Sir please make a active recall study method video with examples
don't??
@1:32 - you are not your?
Perfect timing upload thanks i hope ill become a valedictorian after dis video
Hahaha pls let us know if you do 😅 that would be too tier testimonial
Letsss goo
please dont just put the courses on skillshare can you do it on some website were you dont have to pay monthly?
Actually I am not able to login to skill share for free they are asking for credit cards so can any one tell me how to login for free
Tomorrow is my exam tbh i am cramming right now so yeah
Good luck!
sucks that skillshare isnt free...
😄
:( i need to pay
hi guys! I really liked the video, but I have a personal concern. I don't know why, but as soon as I told someone the material, I easily forgot it. As if my mind said: you learned, you explained ---> now you can easily forget. How to work on such mind games?
I got the same issue 👀😭
Teaching helps you strengthen your understanding, not your memorizing. To memorize sth better, you must use the thgs they listed in the 2nd column of their table in the video, ie Testing, Spaced Repetition, Interleaving etc.
I am really struggling to wrap my head around why you would make this course available for free. A lot of people including myself are desperate to improve our grades and would do whatever it takes to get there. You could probably make a good amount of money by charging people for the course.
Do you think these techniques would be effective for people who struggle with ADHD?
All in one. I do these things myself. So, sharing this video summarizes my explanation when my friends asks how I ace my exams.
You’re already crushing it
i thought they were the same person until now lmao
Too bad I can't speak English
Mike and Matty both look really really tired. It must have been really tough in the hospitals due to Omicron. Hugs!

Too big for youtube?? I just saw a video with 10 hours of girl from ipanema... Change that pitch..

How To Be Simply Saved.
1. The bad News. We are sinners. (Romans 3:23.)
We deserve to be punished in hell for our sins.
2. The Good News. Jesus Christ who is God’s Son died on the cross for all of your sins. He was buried & rose again to give you eternal life in heaven as a free gift. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4. Romans 6:23.)
3. How am I saved?
Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved. (Acts 16:31.)
4. Once saved, always saved.
Jesus said in John 6:47.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.
Do you believe that you are saved by grace and promised heaven because Jesus died for you?
Yes/No
