Memory PalaceAuthor: Olly RichardsWebsite: http://www.iwillteachyoualanguage.com/Description:Do you use Memory Palaces in your language learning?You don’t?Well, this might be for you. Here’s some background…Recently, in my Facebook community, the topic that won’t go away is Memory Palaces (Mind Palaces).A memory palace is an ancient memory technique that uses location-based mnemonics to help you memorize huge amounts of complex information quickly.But do they really work?Well, recently, eight-time world memory champion Dominic O’Brien used this technique to memorize 54 decks of cards in sequence (that’s 2808 cards), viewing each card only once.So yes, they work.But can you use memory palaces in language learning?If so, how would you adapt the technique to memorize vocabulary effectively?These kind of questions have been coming thick and fast in the Facebook group, so I thought I’d put on a live class on Thursday this week, where I’ll walk you through step-by-step how I use memory palaces in my own language learning.Available on youtube
