Inside Learning | Unlocking human potential

4x4 Learning with Ian Gibbs


Listen Later

Have you ever been frustrated to discover you couldn’t remember

something you read just the day before?
Have you ever thought you understood a new idea but then found it
difficult to put that idea into words?
Have you ever given up on trying to learn a new skill because when you
tried to apply it, the result was an abysmal failure?

If your answer to any of these is “yes”, you’re in the right place.

Learning is one of the most useful skills we have in today’s
forever-changing world. But even though you’ve probably spent the best
part of your life learning in one form or another, no one has ever
told you about effective learning techniques.
So that’s what today’s guest offers.

We are joined by the author of "4x4 LEARNING: The 4-step method to get
4-times more out of every book, talk or video you read, hear or watch
for the rest of your life", Ian Gibbs
