Hi Luiz,
First of all, it´s not MY method. Like I said in the post, probably someone else invented this approach when learning a new subject. I´m glad we share and use the same learning process. cheers!

That method is really good indeed. I think that I also make use of it somehow, not in such an organized way though: just recalling some things I have recently read/heard when my brain in idle mode (for instance: showering or other rest-room services, before sleeping, walking/driving to work, etc).

Another method that I think is even more effective for me is teaching the recently learned subject to someone you know. When you teach something you really have to know it, the important details and connections between the littles pieces of the matter. So when you teach someone, you recall these connections and fix them in your brain.

I remember teaching linear algebra to my then-girlfriend
When I can’t find an interested person whom I can teach to, I just pretend I am teaching to myself.
As it usually happens after I have effectively read (or learned) the subject, I think it can also be considered your method

Hey Jarrod,

I didn’t know about that technique. Thanks for sharing. I’ll definitely take a look at it.

cheers
