To learn well, you must change (Part 1)
Flip your learning: study the content before class so class time becomes application, discussion, and feedback. Aim to understand ~80% of the lesson in advance. In class you’ll revisit it once; at home you’ll revisit it again — spaced repetition pushes it to long‑term memory.
Why this beats lectures
- Videos can pause, repeat, slow down, and fit your schedule. A live lecturer can’t. Use teachers for interaction, not for reading slides.
- Pre‑study gives you better questions — the most valuable use of teacher time. It also builds presentation and problem‑solving skills during class.
The hard part is not content — it’s self‑discipline and focus. My job is to build those habits and give you the right tools so you can learn independently.
