The Methods

Feynman Technique

Active Recall

Flashcards

Pomodoro Technique

Spaced Repetition

Past Papers
Feynman Technique

A method of memorization where you learn a more


complex concept and then you break it down into
simple terminology where a 5-year-old can
understand. Then you go on and explain it to a
friend or you write down how you would explain it
to another person.
Active Recall
A method of recalling the things you just read, if you can’t
remember, read it again and then try to recall again. This works
because when you make mistakes, your brain receives many
signals that tell it to not repeat it. The most useful way of using
this is by writing it down in a question/answer format.
Flashcards

A great method where you write the question


on the front of the card and the answers on
the back. You will mix all the cards and try to
answer them. This can help you a lot in
subjects such as Kurdish and History where
there is a lot of memorization.
Pomodoro Technique
A time management tool that helps you stay
productive. For 25 minutes, you will be
studying/working and for 5 minutes you will do
whatever you enjoy. This is useful since your brain
can still focus and be motivated for the next break.
Spaced Repetition
A memory technique that involves reviewing and
recalling information at the optimum interval for
your use case until you learn at a sufficient level.
Studying an entire subject in a day and the next in
the other is bad for you since you could forget a lot
of the elements you studied before. This technique
helps your brain to develop long-term memory
about a certain subject.
Past Papers
When you study the questions that were brought
up in previous exams you did, and you study them.
This is a great source of learning since it could
teach you what questions the teacher will bring
and the teacher’s style.
Summary
• The quality of your studies matter more than the quantity you study.
• Feynman Technique, spaced repetition and flashcards are great for
memorization.
• Past papers, flashcards and active recall are great for understanding.
• Pomodoro is the best for time management.
