Personalise your Chinese learning
The fourteenth rule in the 20 Rules for Learning is “personalise and provide examples”. Dr Wozniak makes the valuable point that it’s easier to retain material long term when you include personal examples for it in your learning.
Learn before you memorise
Memorisation of material is a big part of many people’s approach to learning Chinese. Some aspects of memorisation are essential: seeking out ways to enforce and retain what you’re learning in the long term is important. If you don’t do that, learning Chinese will be like trying to hold a growing quantity of sand in your hands. In other ways, though, memorisation can be a bad approach.
