My number one tip for how to memorize is to first memorize as little as possible.

What?

Hear me out.

I studied chemical engineering at Caltech and got A's in all of my organic chemistry classes, which if you don't know, require tons of memorization.

So in this video, I'm going to explain number one, but as part of five tips

that I actually use to graduate with a 4 .0 while playing varsity sports and sleeping about eight hours a night.

Let's go.

The main problem that you and most students have is that you think there is so much to memorize, but there's actually only a little bit.

What do I mean by that?

Well, the thing is, if you have about eight subjects, 10 subjects, you might think, oh, okay, every single one of these classes, I have to memorize all of these math equations,

all of these facts, all of these mechanisms and XYZ.

Well, of course, it's going to be a ton because you're stacking everything you need to keep in your brain.

That's why tip number one to memorize as little as possible is to first maximize the number of things

that you can understand and only the remainder are the things that you have to memorize.

Here's an example.

Maybe you've seen this triangle before where people say, oh just memorize this triangle so then you can better remember the physics equation

that speed equals distance over time or that time equals distance over speed.

If you just memorize this handy dandy triangle, that's how you can better remember the physics equations.

Now you might think, yeah well isn't that the best way to memorize things?

You use things like mnemonics, pictures, little tricks with letters instead of words, but here's the thing.

When you turn all the things you need to memorize into other versions of things you need to memorize, you're not actually learning and you're still trying to cram all of that information into your head.

Now do you have to recall and to memorize how you tie your shoelaces no

because you just understand how you do instead for math formulas

physics formulas a lot of science all you need to do

is to understand why it is the way it is speed

represents the amount of distance you can travel given a certain amount of time

and that way you can derive the equation simply from understanding what speed is not having to jump through hoops

and give yourself additional things to memorize in fact giving yourself these tricks is actually the dumber, slower, and worse way to learn.

If you just understand that taking a square root means you're thinking of what number squared equals this number, then you don't have to memorize that the square root of nine is three.

You just understand it.

If anyone ever gives you this stupid triangle thing or any other thing to memorize something that you can just understand, please slap some sense into them.

And the easiest way to understand something, see it.

You can replay your favorite movie scenes in your head, but you can't recall what page 47 of your textbook looks like your brain holds on to visuals

and that's why i hated reading walls of text

because there's nothing for me to grab onto that's why i love gamma today's sponsor

and i can't even count how many times we've worked together now

so thanks again to you

and to gamma gamma turns information into visual slides super easy with diagrams

and bullets that break everything up instead of paragraphs that blur together

and here's what's new and super cool

that i have not talked about before with gamma they just launched something

that saves me so many steps and will save you

so much time too

and no it's not learning for you it's not taking creativity

away from you it is helping you do the busy work

so you can get the slides made

and then all you focus on is the actual studying

and using your brain and the new thing is connectors for claude

and chat gpt i personally run so many tedious tasks within claude

And I also use Claude to learn things faster because just like a tutor, I can ask Claude a question, Claude says something, then I ask follow -up questions and we have a conversation back and forth.

Now, when I'm asking Claude to explain the things I don't understand, in that same chat, I can ask Claude to pull my notes from my notion

or I can drag in some text from a textbook.

I then turn them into a visual study guide in Gamma.

Within just a few seconds, a full set of slides shows up.

And guess what?

I never had to leave Claude to make this it's super convenient

because when i learn something new then in

that same chat i tell claude and the slides

and gamma update with me so

if you're a student in 2026 the biggest advantage you can give yourself is

if you use tools like this as if it's a private tutor

that you can access 24 7 with gamma you can stop rereading walls of text

and just hoping that they stick instead you can give your brain something

that it can actually picture

and thus understand you can try out gamma today to memorize i mean understand better at gamma .app

or with the link down below even though the best way

to remember something is to understand it sometimes we do need to brute force memorize things like vocabulary

and that is why tip two is to empty your trash imagine files on your computer you're using it

and then suddenly it glitches it airs out

because there's no memory left no matter how hard you try you cannot shove in more things

and your computer starts to malfunction.

It starts to forget things.

It starts to not save things.

That computer is your brain.

It has limited capacity, both long -term and short -term.

To keep things in your brain long -term, it has to go into short -term first.

So raise your hand, be honest, guys, and leave a comment down below if you follow any celebrity, any kind of pop culture news.

Think of a fact you know about your favorite celebrity right now.

Let me know down below if you understand what the heck 6 '7 means, because I've been hearing it around.

I still don't understand it or if you know what terms like mog

and all those other things on the internet mean you remembered those didn't you

so whenever you browse unnecessary things celebrity drama short form reading

anything unhelpful you are stuffing your brain with trash pushing out this long -term memory your brain is now

so full of the distractions that you succumb itself to every day

when you're on your devices

that of course is not going to have room for the less exciting things like your Spanish vocabulary.

That is why in the CEO method I always talk about, the first step is see cut because that creates capacity.

Related to that, tip three is to stop shrinking your brain as well.

Studies by the National Library of Medicine show that heavy social media users are becoming less able to ignore distractions.

Well, that's not surprising.

That's nothing new.

These efforts to stay focused can ultimately shrink parts of the

brain used for concentration a change known as neuroplasticity can you believe

that you are shrinking your brain brain rot is actually real

but here's the sad thing you probably already knew this

but you're still doing

that every single day it's like you look up videos for how to memorize

and then at the same time you're making it harder for

your brain to do these things then it makes videos like this

100

and any tips less helpful because you're giving yourself a disadvantage in the first place.

101

If you just cut that disadvantage and not shrink your brain, that would be more effective than any little tips stacked together.

102

I'm not here to scold you.

103

I'm not even mad because here's the thing.

104

You're not shrinking my brain.

105

You're not affecting my life.

106

You're affecting yours.

107

See, this is why the only person who can change your life

108

and to save yourself is yourself

109

because there is no other person who should care more about your life or your brain or your body than yourself.

110

And that starts with you having awareness so you can actually change because here's the thing, you don't want to be average.

111

If you are like the average person scrolling all day, taking it even to the restroom, which is gross, then of course you're going to have a bad memory.

112

Just ask yourself, do you want to be like everyone else?

113

Do you want to have the memory of a goldfish?

114

Do you find it satisfying to go talk to someone

115

and then they're like oh yeah my brain's rotting

116

and you're like yeah me too just because your friend is scrolling

117

and sends you a reel doesn't mean you have to do it too

118

or go get some better friends be even friendless

119

that would be better too you can be better than

120

that you are better than

121

that it's time you start treating your life like the most important thing in the world

122

because it is and so that's why this part i get very fired up about

123

because you know tips are useless

124

if you're making your brain not even be able to work

125

properly i don't want to see you asking how to memorize things again until you've deleted all your social media.

126

Then you have the right to ask

127

because you've actually done the number one thing that will help your grades and your life.

128

You know what?

129

Let's take this time to do it together.

130

I'll wait.

131

Delete them right now.

132

Comment down below when you've done it and we'll all cheer each other on

133

because we're all here trying to grow and get better together.

134

Cool.

135

Now tip four is to bombard yourself.

136

So funny that I named it this

137

because you were just bombarding yourself with social media and scrolling

138

but now I'm telling you to bombard yourself with the facts you're actually trying to remember.

139

Tip four means you're bombarding yourself.

140

It's kind of like a tongue twister.

141

You're bombarding yourself with the things you want to remember, both spatially and temporally.

142

I should use simpler words, but if you memorize vocabulary and did tip five, then you would know what those mean.

143

Anyway, tip four means you want to fill your space and your time with the things you want to memorize.

144

So number one, your space add sticky notes everywhere you know on your mirror

145

while you're brushing your teeth so you look at those vocabulary words

146

or the history facts you need to remember add a screenshot of biology terms to your phone lock screen

147

so every time you pull your phone the first thing you see is oh yeah I need to memorize

148

that biology stuff you take a look and oh

149

that way you leverage boredom whenever you get a chance you scroll

150

but instead when you open your phone

151

because those social media apps are not there anymore you see

152

the vocab the second way you bombard yourself is with little review sessions throughout a day

153

or throughout a week not in one giant session you've probably already heard

154

that spaced repetition is way more effective for studying

155

because your brain takes time to encode that new information so

156

that the next time you review it it encodes even stronger

157

and stronger and stronger and so that's why you need to bombard yourself with this studying multiple times

158

throughout a day periodically spread the information you need to memorize throughout your environment

159

and within your calendar tip number five is to apply it

160

and leverage muscle memory if it's vocabulary start using it in your own writing

161

and speaking until it becomes second nature

162

that of course you would remember what it means if it's something

163

that happened in history maybe relate it back to some experience you recently had in your life

164

if you draw these connections it's a lot easier to recall it

165

because humans remember stories up to 22 times more than facts on their own

166

and the second part to this is muscle memory

167

so in organic chemistry i would have to again memorize a lot of mechanisms

168

and drawings so what did i do i just redrew the same drawing the same mechanism over

169

and over again thinking about it each time and

170

that way i committed it to my muscle memory now it's like second nature to draw a carbon molecule simply

171

because i've done it so many times the more you practice using

172

that math equation using

173

that vocabulary using whatever you're trying to remember the more it

174

feels like you're not even trying to remember it you're just practicing

175

and applying and that's how it becomes more fun as well

176

because you have to remember

177

that the point of school is not to shove a bunch

178

of facts in your brain like literally ai can tell you

179

everything nowadays with everything i share in my videos it might

180

seem like it's about all how to do well in school

181

but it's all about the deeper meaning of how it applies to your life

182

because here's the thing school isn't supposed to just be shoving knowledge

183

and facts into your brain you have google for

184

that you can ask claude or chachi bt anything

185

and they know way more than you

186

so why would you spend 12 years in school trying to compete with an ai bot

187

that you can never beat instead it's about understanding it's about

188

how you can apply it to your own life it's about how you can improve your skills

189

so you can be a valuable asset to yourself and so that you can attract the right job opportunities in the future.

190

You can speak to that successful person you want to impress.

191

Always think about the deeper meaning of when you're doing something in school

192

because school could be a waste of your time

193

or you can use it as something that makes you better and gives you a better life.

194

Remember to check out Gama so then you can create your own visuals and understand, not memorize.

195

Comment down below your favorite tip and maybe one that you've already been using.

196

And let us know if you've also deleted your social media apps.

197

Thanks so much.

198

Remember to own your life or someone else will.

199

Thanks, and I will see you at the top.

Learn to Memorize (and Speak!) Smarter with This Video

Ever felt overwhelmed by how much you need to remember—whether it’s English vocabulary, grammar rules, or even exam topics? The speaker in this video, a Caltech graduate who aced tough classes while balancing sports and sleep, shares game-changing tips that aren’t just for memorization—they’re perfect for improving English skills too! Let’s break down how to use their advice to boost your speaking and shadowing practice.

5 Key Phrases to Master from the Dialogue

“Hear me out” – A friendly way to ask someone to listen closely (great for IELTS speaking practice!).
“Stacking everything” – Describing overwhelming mental load (use it to talk about learning challenges).
“Jump through hoops” – Doing unnecessary extra work (perfect for casual conversations).
“Walls of text” – Boring, dense paragraphs (relate it to tricky reading materials).
“Busy work” – Tasks that take time but don’t add value (useful for discussing study habits).

Step-by-Step Shadowing Guide for This Video

The video’s conversational tone and clear explanations make it ideal for shadowing technique practice. Here’s how to do it:

Listen first, then mimic: Play a 10-second clip, pause, and repeat the speaker’s words. Focus on their rhythm—they speak quickly but clearly, so aim to match their pace. This helps with English pronunciation and fluency.
Emphasize key phrases: When you hear “hear me out” or “jump through hoops,” repeat them with the same emphasis. Notice how the speaker stresses certain words to make a point—this is crucial for natural speaking.
Connect ideas aloud: After shadowing, summarize the tip in your own words. For example, “Instead of memorizing tricks, understand the concept.” This links listening, speaking, and comprehension—great for IELTS speaking practice.
Use a shadowing site: If you struggle with pausing, try a platform that lets you slow down the audio. Practice daily for 10 minutes, and you’ll notice your confidence grow!

Remember, the speaker’s big secret? Understand first, memorize later. Apply that to English: focus on why phrases work, not just how to say them. You’ve got this—happy shadowing!

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
