Learning by repeating and practicing
“Learning is the process of acquiring new understanding, knowledge, behaviours, skills, values, attitudes, and preferences.”
From Wikipedia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning
I’m not going to go to deep into learning because there are plenty of resources out there on the internet, I will leave that for you to research. But one aspect that I will focus on which I think is useful is learning by repeating and practicing.
Like with most things when you are dealing with learning you have to remember and understand. By repeating you strengthen that into memory and also your understanding. From my experience when I am learning something new by repeating and practicing, I begin to notice stuff that I’ve missed. I also then start to discover other insights that I didn’t know before. So how do you know when you’ve repeated enough times to understand. Well it starts from when you go around in circles with the subject matter. My advice to you is to repeat, repeat, practice, practice. If you have a photographic memory then that’s a bonus.
As a note I know there are memory strategies that you can use to remember but in my opinion you still need to repeat.
In general, there are other places where repeating and practicing works.
For example:
- Athletes train by repeating and practicing to get better. They may experiment with things like technology to help improve themselves.
- To remember something you need to repeat, repeat and practice, practice.
- Become a better car driver by repeating and practicing.
- Become a better chef by repeating and practicing
