Master of Memory: Accelerated learning, education, memorization
Summary: I'm Timothy, a lifelong learner and mnemonist. This show is where I answer your questions every day about memorization: Memory tactics and how to remember anything. Have trouble remembering dates, vocabulary, or people's names? This is where you'll find the answers to all your questions! Personally, I love memorizing things quickly, because it not only enables me to learn anything I want to learn really quickly, it also frees up my time to go beyond mere memorization of rote facts because memorization is now so fast. Let's talk about mnemonics, memory palaces, memorizing numbers, alternative educational ideas, and basically all things related to accelerated learning.
