How to Learn People's Names on Tour - Techniques for Remembering Names

[@chiararozzi]

This is exactly what I needed...! My BIG problem. And you are right: essentially I cannot remember names because I am not really interested in succeeding in this. But now I will improve because I'm aware it's important for the guests and also to be a good guide

In my experience it also helps if when the guests are joining the group, you introduce them to the rest of the group using everyones names. So if you're standing there with Jack and Barbara, and Kelly joins you, you say: Hi Kelly, this is Jack and Barbara. By the time you have ten people in that group, you'll have it memorised :)

Focus is key. I haven't perfected that yet, but agree that it's important. And some good other tips too. Thank you!

Thank you for this! I really appreciate it! Usually I will memorize it before the trip. We have medical forms for them to fill up before the trip , that's where we can see their names (:

I have problems to remember the guests names when the groupe is big

[@henrivietnam]

It sounds weird but i associate people name with their first impression to me: John , bald guy. Mary, short blonde girl. Tiny, big guy. I can remember 29 names after 1 night!

Good one thanks.

I'm a teacher . I have this problem of forgetting names of the students badly!!! If my mind decides to call Mary, Lila (though the names are not even similar !!!!!!)then it does! It' like : It suits her better!!!!!!!this name goes with her not that one !!!!But I have this problem of forgetting everything ... I think stress and tension causes a lot of forget forgetfulness!!!!!
