I'm a visual learner. I may not remember what I wrote in my notes, but I can tell you exactly where it was on the page and probably the ink color, too. I could probably reconstruct my drawing of a brain cell from high school biology, even though I drew it 60 years ago.

Greetings from a former Psychology student teacher, and current Security Trainer. I'd recommend using visual memory aids. Doodling drawings or thinking images that symbolize your notes. For example- the word 'catharsis' vaguely means 'an emotional release'. I take the first three letters of 'catharsis'- C A T, and visualize myself petting a cat as an action to settle my emotions.

Hope this helps! 👊🙂

Same. I stick to the same colour for different parts of the page and try to keep track of what I'm expected to already know, and how the "teacher" wants to develop ideas going forward. It's sort of like reverse engineering a lesson plan.

Great job Coach. Really looking forward to your next video. Excited to move from IMA PATHETIC to EMPATHETIC listener. LOL 😅

[@alexanderlyon]

Ha! Funny. You got this. It comes out in two weeks because I'm skipping my post on election day. People will be preoccupied that day!

Your videos always provide good tips on better communication. Do you have videos on public speaking in general? In other words trying to present a speech but not sound rehearsed

[@alexanderlyon]

Yes! Many of the videos on my channel focus on public speaking. A video that might be what you're looking for is titled *_How to Give an Extemporaneous Speech_* . If you search for that title and my name, it should come up in the KZbin search results.

Thank you, It happens to me when I talk to a lot of people, I sweat excessively, what would you advise me to do?

[@alexanderlyon]

Hm. I'm not sure. It sounds like anxiety to me. Have you talked to a counselor about it?

So i struggle with taking notes because when I struggle with listening and writing simultaneously, and I’m afraid of missing crucial details. Any way to improve this? I know nobody is going to be perfect but I do want to be a better active listener.

I am a great listner, but if I take notes, i get distracted and may miss some information. I try yo write just a few important words and take notes after the lecture.
