Well, knowing how to study is almost as important as studying
This is me right now
me asf
Literally me right now 😂😭 I have a terrible habit of procrastinating and have a certification exam that I need to do within 3 weeks that I had a year to prep for but put off for 11 months because of stress,depression, severe anxiety and death in the family, loss, Coronavirus, work from home... I just kind of back burnered these two exams that cost me a couple hundred bucks and I have 3 weeks now to play catch up but I really suck it remembering text these days. Not as young as I used to be and it seems my ability to retain information has decreased.he's hoping these tips help me get through 800 pages of one text and 1600 of another!
All the best out there to my fellow procrastinators ❤️
Here's a tip which helped me score 74/80 in science
This technique works
So when you're reading the lesson and just blindly making notes ,keep a seperate notebook.
Now while reading instead of taking notes, frame questions which come to your mind and also try framing questions just as you are reading,i mean - be atleast a bit curious about the topic and ask yourself questions. Now don't answer them,note them down
After reading that particular page or topic ,go back to the questions and answer them
Benefits:
Firstly it's forces your mind to be curious over stuff
And it's increases your ability to answer thereby making it easier for you to get full marks for a particular question in exam
And it's pyschologically proven that if you write smt down immediately after learning it ,you remember it for a longer time
Trust me this works
I Went from 27/80 to 74/80 by this technique
And try to understand the concepts instead of blindly reading and taking point
Yes! You are right Lakshanya. Good suggestions. I talk about the value of taking handwritten notes in many of my newer videos like tip #3 in this one. czcams.com/video/cFrt3ZWtEC8/video.html
Thats a great tip, I'll apply it along the tips in this vid
"psychologically proven" aight.

b. How many words are there compared to images
c. Does anything jump out at you? Graphs, images, tables etc.
2. Go to the end of the chapter
a. Did they give you any sort of a quiz?
b. Quiz will give the important information that should be gained from the chapter
3. Go to the beginning of the chapter
a. Read the bold print
b. Titles, subtitles, headings: Break down of information
4. Go to the beginning one more time
a. First and last sentence in each paragraph
b. First sentence is the introduction
. The last sentence of the paragraph helps you sum it up
5. Now you have got the preview

This is so amazing, I feel like a capable person again, thank you for this awesome video, now I'm looking forward to read books and materials that I have neglected over the years because I always thought that they are boring, but now I have a completely new mindset on how to approach them.
Thank you professor.
I see in the comments that you reply on and like others comments, which means that you are indeed a one of a kind in these dark world whereby everyone is busy with themelves rather than helping and reaching out to others who are stuck.

I do something similar to this in med school,
1. I read through all the chapter sub headings & draw a map on how they link
2. I try to understand the entire chapter (not memorize, just focused on understanding)
3. I start taking notes on the important points & at this point I've already memorized the entire chapter
8 years later and you’re the teacher I’ve always needed. Thank you for continuing to inspire generations of students and I will definitely stay tuned to your videos.
Welcome
I wanna add one more: If you speak a second language, translate the material in your mind. Doing this will force you to engage more, and will help you block other distracting thoughts

"Many people read textbooks like they read novels"
This sentence really changed my approach
Most people don't read novels because most people don't read at all!
I can't read
@@SahuClub105 are you Jared, 19?
Idk
@R5N2K20 yea i haven't read any books except textbooks
After my first week of uni and not understanding the textbooks I had to read I have been watching videos such as this and here's is what I've learned so far:
HOW TO READ / STUDY TEXTBOOKS
Step 1: Flip through the entire chapter, to get a sense of how long it is and see whatever stands out to you
Step 2: Thoroughly read through the quiz at the end of each section or chapter to gain the understanding of what important questions you should be asking yourself from here on out.
**IMPORTANT: FOR STEPS 3 & 4 YOU ARE READING FOR EXPOSURE TO THE CONTENT, NOT COMPREHENSION**
Step 3: Go to the start of the chapter and read through all of the bold texts throughout the chapter
Step 4: Go back to the start of the chapter and read the first and last sentence of each paragraph.
Step 5: Finally read through the chapter fully while framing questions that come to your mind on a blank piece of paper and highlighting in the text what made you think of those questions (Remember to stay curious, this will help you think of questions from the text). For now, don’t answer these questions, wait until you have finished the section or topic, then go through and answer them.
Step 6: If the teacher has posted any type of video going over the topic. Watch it, it will help immensely because it was what they think is most important
Hope this helps someone :)
I unintentionally tried this before because I was stressed I kinda did something similar, and I can confirm it actually works a lot better than just reading alone

I actually read like this all the time, just didn't realize it was a system/process. Also explains why I can't comprehend info that doesn't have such summaries like bold texts, quizzes that give me context. Thank you Matt.
I have always read linearly and wondered why nothing sticks 🫡😂😭
8 years later, I'm still neither a sponge nor my textbook is water.
LOL. You are not alone. Here's a video that mentions your comment. I think you'll enjoy it. czcams.com/video/iRWxOnGWVas/video.html
A quick summary for those who want it:
- Flip through each page: Overview on what is coming.
- Look at the End-Quiz: You know what you look for.
- Read the bold print: Information has been broken down for you.
- Read the first and last sentence in a paragraph: The first sentence is an introduction & the last a conclusion.
This method takes more time than just reading the chapter in one go, but it is way more effective.
And remember: REPETITION IS THE MOTHER OF LEARNING.

Maybe in american education that 3rd and 4h tip is possible to go along with, but in Europe, it's not.
the funny thing is, most of my textbooks are written by Americans so I can apply all these rules even thoug I'm from the Netherlands

And tip 2 is not possible in advanced textbooks. So you have to adapt the strategy.

Repeat for all chapters:
1. *Flip Through* each page in the chapter _(Tells your brain what to look out for, how it's structured, and other subconscious benefits)_
2. Read *Questions* at end of chapter _(Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon)_
3. Read *Bold Words* in the chapter _(Titles, subtitles, Topic-Headings. Get a better understanding of the structure)_
4. Read *First and Last Sentence* of each paragraph _(First sentence gives an indication on what the rest of the paragraph is about, the last sentence sums up the important information)_
5. *Read through* the chapter and *take notes* _(Brings everything together and lets you connect the dots)_

Finally a to-the-point tutorial. Most of these kind of videos just ramble on about “getting into the correct learning mindset” and “stop stressing out about it”. This actually has specific instructions I can do immediately. For anyone in doubt - I tried this method it works impeccably. All textbooks are different so adapt the style as fit, but I assure you that this is fail-safe.
Hello Will. THANK YOU for posting your comment. I believe your words will inspire others to not merely view this content, but actually put these ideas to use. I very much appreciate you for taking the time to post your personal review.
Finally i found a youtube recommended video which I needed
@@moviesnight248 Thanks for viewing, and for actually taking the time to go through some of the comments before posting yours. It is very much appreciated!
Here's a newer and more detailed video you may find helpful, as I compare the 3 different types of books you're likely to be studying. czcams.com/video/4_a0ME65wAQ/video.html
Hi, Matt. Would be nice if you post something about a learning technique of differrent manuals, chapters with technical recommendations and requirements where you dont have a well structured chapters or where you have to learn all the recommendations and requirements, for example, procedures, equipment specs etc.
@@rustamrasulov820 Thanks for the suggestion. In the meantime, here's a newer and more detailed video you may find helpful, as I compare the 3 different types of books you're likely to be studying. czcams.com/video/4_a0ME65wAQ/video.html
This changed how I learned in college. Dissecting chapters before reading them help me understand what I'm reading and made my experience less scary.
Continuously practicing these steps and being aware of them has helped me set up my notes better and now I annotate what I read because I feel like I can relate to a lot of what I'm learning. It honestly made me fall in love with learning and reading. This eventually led me to set up an entire style guide to how I take notes.
Hello Fot. Thanks for taking a moment to post your experience with this technique. I'm sure your words will have a positive impact on those who read them. Hope you enjoy my newer content too.
I am a network engineering student in NIIT and I do appreciate your method because it's seems its gonna be more helpful to me then I thought
1. Flip Through Each Page to see length etc
*Repetition Is The Mother Of Learning*
2. Go to the end and read the quiz (if any)
*Repetition Is The Mother Of Learning*
3. Read the *Bold Print*
*Repetition Is The Mother Of Learning*
4. Read First and Last Sentence of each Paragraph (reading for exposure only to map out)
*Repetition Is The Mother Of Learning*
5. Read the chapter (will only need to read it once after the above steps, prevents cramming)
*Repetition Is The Mother Of Learning*
You took good notes D C I. Happy you got value from this.

Repitition is the one of the most primitive way of learning
Is this method patched in the latest update or is it still working?
Repetition
This dude is the reason i got 97% in my board exams
That is OUTSTANDING Sahil. I'm PROUD of you.
Which board exams did you take?
Have you watched my other videos? Please tell us a bit more about yourself.
@@BeSmarterFaster board exams in India are given by students in 12th grade and they matter a lot because they help you to get through universities.

Invaluable information. Thank you for sharing!
Back again to listen to your video. Great information for me. I am in my last semester before graduation. I have used your guide to study. Thank you. Sherry Hurd
he basically emphasized how to study smart instead of studying hard. a person can read a whole chapter of the book and still won't comprehend the important parts. this is a great guide especially if the textbook has way more pages per chapter.
Studying hard doesn't mean studying stupid.Working hard in a smart way is the key to success
@@gulaborani5184 Yeah but by cramming, you are working and still, you might not remember 50% of what you read.
Hard work is not the key, SMART WORK( hard+timely+efficient) is the key to success
@@indraneelmenon well yea but some people work hard consistently from the start so we can't just disregard taht.
@@ivory8835 I told smart (hard+timely+efficient) and I think that hard working consistently means doing your work in a timely and efficient way.

@@pranshukaushik4837
That is a good queston. I'm working on what to do for that too. For now, I'm making flashcards of the key points, processes, definitions, diagrams etc. I'll make a "test" with these. Past exam papers seem a good idea to me too, what about these for you?
Wdym most educational videos are really good on CZcams
@@pranshukaushik4837 If there is a chapter there are questions... If you can't find them in book itself, try internet there are previous years, important questions by trained professionals etc. Try try but don't cry. Good luck pal
How to watch this video:
1. Keep skipping 5 seconds till the end
2. Watch the last 15 seconds of the video
3. Watch the first and last 5 seconds of each minute.
4. Now watch the entire video
Remember guys, REPETITION is the mother of learning.

Jokes apart, this is THE video that is going to drastically improve your grades.
All the best.
I loved the way u wrote down the tips, Smart XD
Were you serious abt the last line
I just played it at 1.5x speed as I do for all videos since people can understand words faster than humans speak
That was a great joke. But this seriously is really good information
Sorry i cant skip 5 seconds only 10 seconds
This is actually insane. I have been using this method subconsciously all through out my school (right from 6th grade to 12th) . In exams, especially English, I did most of the steps mentioned in this video and I for one aced most (if not all) comprehension paragraphs. Glad to hear, this has helped people and myself included because the above case only applied to me for English. About to start college soon, so it has reminded me of the method I used for English and now I'm fully prepared to use it on a conscious level on all upcoming tests, assignments etc. I thank you and the CZcams algorithm.
Good Luck! In your studies.
This... I accidentally found this a year ago when i was at my rock bottom and went through this method, got my academic success at its best.
Again after a year I have to face a major exam and was wondering how to find this amazing teacher for kind of a motivation ( i still remember the method), here this comes again. This is a blessing and thank you ❤

Algorithm! Your choices with videos matters.

‘wasting time’ - I don’t like how you use that term against great technological resources. It really is sad how the education system is formed. It’s horrible. You act like a boring old textbook is the only thing you can use. Well, it might be the case anyway for you, likely. The System just doesn’t hold up to our future standards anymore. College is a repetitive career mongering indoctrination camp, and everyone says that it is the only way to get a good-paying career. Also, Although people say you need money to live, something our Education System doesn’t take into effect is a Work/Life balance. We’ve all been told to get a good paying job; but not one that will make us happy. You need to realize this.
Good luck with neet

Hello Christina. Thank you for you lovely comment. At this stage of my life I'm on a mission to make a positive lasting difference in the lives of students of ALL ages, around the world. Hope you enjoy my newer content too.
A lot of people are saying this should be taught in high school, but personally, I believe that this should be taught in sixth grade so that students can effectively learn how to use it so that they understand it when it matters.
ye,i mean it took him only 8 minutes thats amazing
I wish...so that I wouldn't have to figure it out at the age of 18
well im I'm 8th grade thank god I found this
Can vocalbilization increase studying
Especially as this is more familiarizing our brain with the content so it’s more efficient at processing it. It wouldn’t require 11 year olds to conceptually understand this practical process in depth, just repeat the steps for more effective learning.
Don’t let all the funny comments distract you from how useful and brilliant this video is!
Indeed ❤️
I wish I could find more of this stuff.
The irony 😂
Abc Abc yeah
Very old school, I like it. Used this to study my German grammar textbook-- it works!
But sponges don’t absorb textbooks
Neither do i
"Like a sponge" is a simile. You can absorb/internalise/understand information from a textbook just the way the sponge absorbs water. He's trying to convey an idea by comparing two dissimilar objects that have some similar quality. I hope this helps😊

I don’t believe there are any bad students. Everyone just needs to realize their most effective way of learning new material.
thats exactly what i’m missing, i’m looking through the best way to study no matter how long it takes
Mindset also matters
Agreed
nah there's a lot of bad students
Yep everyone is capable, it's just that some of them doesn't want to
i just realised in stead of attempting to make a profit out of this life changing technique, he posted on CZcams, which is free. this guy clearly cares more about education than getting a pay check which is a mindset, educators and bosses and anyone who has authority needs o considering doing. three cheers for Matt DiMaio

I've been intuitively following a similar process my whole life and it never worked because it felt messy, like it was *my* problem that I can't *just read*, this put that in a very different perspective.

As someone who has a mild intellectual disability and studying in university (24), I want to thank you deeply as before i never grasped information even if I did, I would've forgotten it as you stated it, however due to medical condition (nocturnal epilepsy). Now I am grind it back and regardless of how long it will take me with the support I have, I *would rather learn* than read from page one and end up till page 10. Even though this video is old, it helped me understand my issue much more clearly. I personally want to thank you, reading from last page and going down, then up to last, made me more sense than staring at the text and researching on CZcams or my other ebooks for knowledge.

I'd like to share a little story from my experience. I knew I was relatively smart but I couldn't for the love of God score good marks in tests. I ended up with around 60% on the average test.
