Back by popular demand… Do you struggle to remember names, memorise speeches, or remember where you left your phone? World-renowned memory expert Phil Chambers is here to make forgetfulness a thing of the past.

In the digital age the world’s information is at our fingertips. But even the best voice-activated assistant, search engine and smartphone cannot substitute for of a well-trained and powerful human memory.

Whether you want to have the facts at your fingertips in a business meeting, memorise names and faces at a networking event, deliver speeches without a script, or rapidly learn foreign vocabulary, no digital device can compensate for your own finely honed memory.

Taught by coach, consultant and author Phil Chambers, six times Mind Sports Olympiad finalist and twice World Mind Mapping Champion, this two-part interactive livestream course will teach you tried-and-tested techniques to strengthen your memory – and enrich your life in the process.

With exercises and tools you can begin using right away, these sessions will help you understand why we remember and forget, and provide a range of practical strategies to develop your recall in everyday life and work, including memorisation both for the short-term and long-term.

Tuesday 4th October – Session 1: Principles of Memory: in the first session we will explore how memory works, including the differences between semantic and episodic memory, and the nature of absent mindedness. We will study and practice a range of classical techniques for quick and effective memorisation.

Tuesday 11th October – Session 2: Advanced Techniques: In the second session we will study modern techniques for practical challenges we all face – from how to remember dates and foreign vocabulary to how to memorise PIN codes and faces. We will review how to transfer memories from short-term to long-term for lasting recall.
