Secrets of a Super Memory: Intermediate Series (Parent/Child)

This class picks up where the Secrets of a Super Memory: Beginnerseries left off. In the first series, you learned 3 memory techniques: pegging, chaining and substitution. In the intermediate series we cover up to 9 memory techniques and practice using them on academic subjects:

• Learn how to use VAKing to learn geology
• Expand your SAT vocabulary rapidly with a cartoon memory technique
• Practice memory techniques for remembering a script
• Find out how numbers can be remembered at the genius level with a simple code
• Discover a method for holding large blocks of data in memory, and use it on interesting law cases
• Learn how to have phenomenal recall for what you read

Secrets of a Super Memory: Intermediate is interactive. Again you will learn by playing. Walk in on the program and you might see students acting, distributing game cards to learn vocabulary, or passing rocks from the "quarry" to blindfolded geology students. The skills gained in the Secrets of a Super Memory: Beginnerseries allow us to look at more sophisticated memory techniques, like how to memorize a book. This is a big step towards becoming memory literate. A number of the techniques used in this class come from Jim's book, Memory Smart.
