1. Choose a subject 2. Explain the subject well enough and simply enough to be understood by a child 3. Identify knowledge gaps - if you are using unnecessary big words, or technical jargon, you don't understand it well enough. 4. Go through it again. Explain it again as if explaining to someone who has no clue about it at all. Up until this point it is the Feynman technique. 5. Make it your own. i. start with not knowing. ii. ask 'why?'. ask why x=y. or why does music has 12 notes and not 14. iii. study the story of what you are studying. E.g. study what was physics before Quantum theory. Why QT was needed, who were the people involved in developing the QT and how it changed the world.
and this is how i have been studying my whole life. It has its drawbacks though. Building theories from scratch, trying to anticipate the next move in the book, ten pages before happening. Understanding the need of such theorem way before it is explained in a book because it is needed to make a whole theory work, is rewarding and nice. But it also comes with more time staring at the wall trying to figure things out, only to see them some pages later written, sometimes you are not fine tuned and you cannot do this high energy demanding task, or you are simply not ready for that high octane fuel. Then you don't get to the point you should for a test, sometimes feeling you'd have been better off just memorizing the stuff. This happens a lot when the course is broad and not focused in one topic, so it is impossible to deepen into each subject when the structure is not well built. Another drawback, or let's say side note, is that even though the knowledge you BUILD is levels more deep, it is not forever. You might truly UNDERstand the topic, see how all of the pieces fit together, but if you don't practice the topic for some months you are almost back to square one. And say almost because it is true that the second time you will focus on the topic you will go much faster to cover it.
This was a great video. The cuts were clean as all heck, the content and flow was amazing, your voice is fun to listen to, again the content was presented so well. You deserve way more views and subscribers. I hope the algorithm smiles favorably on you!
What really matters in learning is what happens in your mind, what story you are telling yourself, the words, the question you ask, to inner visualizing you make, the connection you make between all of these. To make a subject your own, apply the knowledge as soon as you learn it. you learn about vectors, try to manipulate vectors, add them, multiply by a number, draw vectors, connect the graphic representation to how it is represented in a coordinate system. try to do different things with them. spend time with them, get familiar. try to redo the examples of the lesson, try example you invented, modify something from an exercise to see what happens. Getting very good at something doesn’t mean being able to do something really complex, it means being able to do simple things extremely well.
Very true, sadly most people are succumb to the dream of "memorizing" to learn. Which is in fact a toxic thing to do. I don't give attention to memorization that much because memorizing things is different from understanding it. Elon musk doesn't memorize all of the engineering but he surely understands it all. This proves that if you're good at school, you are not good at life
Heyy, I really love your videos! Hope you will be on a rise soon. I have a question for you, though: What are your youtube statistics in terms of age, gender, etc. of your viewers? Many of those self improvement channels target and attract young, urban, professional men (and it makes sense, I mean the pressure to be so succesful is really high on those.) What I really enjoy about your channel is that it doesn't exclusively targets one certain group of people, except those who really want to improve themselves and live better lifes! I enjoy your voice and learning new things from you! So, have a nice day:)
Hello there! Thanks for the message, very encouraging 😊. The biggest audience RUclips is recommending my channel to is 25-35 male US people but I'd love to see more countries, women and people from all ages watching this channel ✌️
First time viewer. The content is excellent and I will teach it to my students. A critique though, I would hesitate to share the video itself because of one simple, recurring error. Dr. Feynman's name is pronounced Fine-man - as in, he was a fine man. In the grand scheme of things, this is trivial. But when you make the point of studying the history of your subject, well... Anyway, keep going, and yes, based on this video, you deserve more subscribers.
Hey there! You are 100% correct about the name, since I mostly read about him I never got feedback about his last name's pronounciation. My bad. Thanks for the feedback and it would be an honor if this video is shown to your students 😊
Can you make a video on how to become fluent in another language? For some reason language learning is really difficult for me to grasp even though millions of people have learned a second language or more
Great stuff fellow country man! Would you say knowledge, although obviously overlapping, is different from proficiency? I'm just thinking about what you said about someone who truly understands a topic is supposed to be able to explain it in simple terms. Fair enough. But I can also think of a world class performer who can't easily deconstruct action by action what he's able to do better than 99.9% of people. Take a proficient speaker of a second language. He doesn't bother to string together a sentence word by word. He probably isn't familiar with the grammatical rules (he just speaks, don't ask him why). But a beginner or intermediate is. And could probably make for a better teacher to someone with zero knowledge. Great ideas, man. I'll keep watching!
Today I found this channel by "Reading a book a week ..." video and i liked it alot I like learning new things and keep an open mind and thanks for sharing some learning technics
This is great, - a very useful introduction to the technique. But since you are talking about "learning" it would be great if you could learn to correctly pronounce Feynman's name. :)
Thank you for the video. The music in the background is untenable. Unnecessary. Your content speaks for itself. Watch your videos at two times the speed and notice how annoying the background music is. Please consider eliminating it. Some of the best channels on RUclips don't have it. Ultimately it's almost like propaganda. What you are talking about and what you are sharing doesn't need a soundtrack.

Media consumption don’t mean learning
Reading don’t mean studying
Memoring dosnt mean understanding

Great! I appreciate you sharing it
RUclips suggested your video, I think you’re on the rise buddy - much deserved from what I’ve seen so far! Fuerza 💪
I appreciate it! Hope the algorithm continues to show my content 😄
Totally! Great content 👌🏾👌🏾
The ‘ask why?’ part is critical
This was a great video. The cuts were clean as all heck, the content and flow was amazing, your voice is fun to listen to, again the content was presented so well. You deserve way more views and subscribers. I hope the algorithm smiles favorably on you!
Thanks for the encouraging words, it truly means a lot. I'll be praying to the RUclips Algorithm God 🙏
Excellent job, man!!! Wonderful channel. Keep up the marvelous work.
So accurate Juan! I'm so addicted to feeling competent all the time.
Glad to see you around and hear that you liked it!
fuck yes, exactly that.. i am addicted to feeling competent.. holy shit youre so right.. it feels bad when youre the "dumb" one in convo, right?

Very helpful. Thank you
Thanks bro, i was having trouble with learning so maybe this is the best technique
You are a true inspiration sir.
So nice of you!
Your channel is extremely underrated! Thank you for all the great information!
I appreciate that!
Just discovered your video in my feed. I love your style and passion. Keep it up. We need more from you.
Interesting! I must explore how to apply this to my language learning.
Didn't think about that one. Let me known how it goes!
Thanks for the tips! 👌🏾
Happy to help!
Great stuff!
Thanks!
I usually have this technique as mine, and I miss how this make me study better. Now with FT 2.0, I'll achieve new score. Thanks bro
Good luck!
Absolutely brilliant.
My version of how to summarize this video - whatever you try to study, don't be satisfied knowing only the surface, dig deep into the depths!
Awesome, subscribed! 👌👌👌
Awesome, thank you!
Very nice insights, keep it up bro 💪🏽
Thanks

Keep th good work up man ur great
Very good
amazing video, I'll probably forgot everything after 15minutes but amazing video
pretty dam good
Glad you think so!

Total immersion is needed.
Same for me, I can barely speak English, my first language.
I think you wrote the puthagorean theorem wring and also said a2*b2=c2
As a former physicist, I would give you a tip and inform you that Richard "Dick" Feynman is pronounced like f"eye"nman.
I think you got the Pythagorean theorem wrong 8:00
4:37
7:01 for the new technique
Sorry, I forgot to add the time lapses. Thanks for the reminder

Great video, thanks. Just wondering where did you get all those stock videos? Thanks
Videoblocks I believe but there are a lot of them that are free now
Bro thats not the Pythagorean theorem. It's "a^2 + b^2 = c^2" your slide at 6:33 says "a^2 + a^2 = c^2"
Great video!
So, do you like orange?
Thanks!
Today I found this channel by "Reading a book a week ..." video and i liked it alot
I like learning new things and keep an open mind
and thanks for sharing some learning technics
This is great, - a very useful introduction to the technique. But since you are talking about "learning" it would be great if you could learn to correctly pronounce Feynman's name. :)
arent there 7 notes and just 5 semitones? 8:17
Yeah, but that's an arbitrary distinction. C is not more note than D#
Your Pythagorean Theorem is wrong. Supposed to be a squared plus b squared. In the cideo it says a squared llus a squared
Will schoder did a video on this already
You ain’t slick
Different angle, different content, different concepts.
Where are you from brou
Argentina my friennnnn
subbbed
A^2+a^2= c^2 I thinksy not
Everything things is perfectly said except the Pythagoras theorem 😂 it was wrong
🤣
Where are you from m8?
Aregentina my friend
@@Inerize lo sabía! Jeje
Do you have a gf
of course

I'll take it into account. Thanks for the feedback
Your introduction is to long and to hyped, its should not be necessary to spend half the video on introduction
Ill take it into account, thanks for the feedback
I found it helpful.
