How to find your LEARNER TYPE & build a perfect study system 

Take my Learner Type free quiz to figure out your learning strengths and weaknesses: bit.ly/4dYKX3T You'll also get a personalised report at the end with recommendations for what to work on to improve your learning efficiency as quickly as possible.

Does anyone want me to go into the problem with learning styles in more depth? Or is that topic already pretty well covered by this point? (Also let me know if there's anything form this video you want me to dive into more)

- Learner types are about assessing your habits and processes as a learner. They are based on 5 key dimensions: - *deep processing* - *self-regulation* - *mindset* - *self-management* - *retrieval practice* - Deep processing is your raw cognitive power and ability to think critically. It can be improved through training habits. If you have low deep processing, ineffective study techniques may not work as well for you. - Self-regulation is your ability to monitor and adapt your learning methods. High self-regulation can compensate for lower deep processing. - Mindset is about your resilience and response to mistakes. A fixed mindset limits improvement, while a growth mindset enables it. Mindset can be the most limiting factor. - Common learner types: - *Unchained* (fixed mindset) - *Sprout* (growth mindset but low processing/self-regulation) - *Trooper* (high self-regulation but low processing) - *Carp* (high processing but low self-regulation). - Knowing your learner type helps you focus your efforts on improving the dimensions that will make the biggest impact for you. A free diagnostic quiz is linked in the video description.

1. Deep processing: ability to think critically, connect ideas and understand complex concepts 2. Self regulation: mastery and adaptation of learning techniques and self-awareness of using the right strategy for the right task 3. Mindset: attitude toward failure and experimentation

The quiz has now been updated and the bug which gave more people "Other" has been fixed! The "other" category is something that should have only occurred around 3% of the time based on our sample data set. But due to a probably bug in the quiz logic, it was being given out 10x more frequently! I've just tested it with an additional set of cases and it seems to be functioning as normal. If you received "Other" before, please do the quiz again!

You're changing and saving lives. Thank you for still uploading and sharing what you have synthesized for the rest of us.

Thanks so much for sharing this! Can’t wait to join your program! Just waiting for the next window to open up!

Thank you Justing for all your videos. You helped me to change my entire perspective of learning and realizing that there is so much more and I can go further and further.

I appreciate the content you bring to this channel! Immensely valuable!

Guilty spark here. Smart, have good learning methods, AND a good mindset, I just suck at doing things early enough to learn everything I need to; even if I learn insanely fast, I'll always have to sacrifice one or two sections I need to learn because I genuinely don't have enough time left to go over them, without losing what I've already learnt😭😭

I love what you've done with editing🎉

Thank you Justin, this is what I want to take notes, you know what I am thinking, thank you for your video

From Togo! You're videos help me learn English and how to learn!

hello Justin. I am a new commer in your group. I was thinking about my life, my future whether I can do something btter in my life or not and I stumbled upon your video in seach of guidence. this video really helped me boost my confidence and also to give myself time to think about the methods and techniques and also my mediocare routine as a high school teen. Your survey said I am unchained which at first I was curious that how on earth I am like this but after a retest, I admit it. just waiting for the pdf and looking forward to grow now. Thanks for your help and your motivation (well this video isn't meant to be a motivational stuff rather it is a guide and informational one but who knows).

This is a life changing video full of knowledge. Hopefully I can apply and grow more about it. New subscriber here.

I like how Justin is always talking about seeing the big picture and being mindful of the context for information that we consume and only now is he giving us all the parts that form a comprehensive big picture for cognition and systematic learning. Not complaining, the guy is already putting out so much valuable content for free, just pointing out the irony

Hi Justin, thank you for your videos - I found them a few days ago and leave more knowledgeable and excited each time. I was a PA student and recently withdrew because of poor performance. I believe I am a “sprout”. Not the outcome I wanted, but your channel is helping see where and how to strengthen my learning. My biggest pitfalls were studying voluminous content and recall. Thank you again!

Just wanna share a few thoughts about you, Dr. Sung :Đ I've accidentally "jumped" into 1 or 2 of you videos when I started learn in university, and your context have helped me a lot with my learning journey. I remembered like 2 years ago (?) People are really go crazy about space repetition and active recall, flash cards, etc... but with a law student like me, those methods take too much time and energy while the results are not too good. But after accidentally found your videos, I could learn in a really relaxing ways while still being able to enjoy myself and doing other stuffs. I just wanna say thank you, thank you very much for your help.

This is an absolutely unique but the most interesting video. I’m a high achiever , doctor, with 2 residencies in uk/ USA. My partner an Ivy League multiple degree . I am an MENSAN and he is in intertel , the way he studies and remembers dosent work for me , I’m slow methodical and require time , he studies at the speed so high. I want young people to watch this video with their parents slowly and understand eveyword Justin talks about , becaus3 no learning coach is going to be this explosive in analysis by living in the head of a student

Thoughts while watching: - There is more than 1 theory of learning styles - it would be good to be clear what theory you are referring to. - Styles aren't really explained when looking at behaviours or cognition. - Types - takes to long to explain - why assume we don't want to watch long videos? - Building habits from neuroplasticity seems redundant - How do you measure deep processing? If people can't self measure how would they know what to do or not to do. - Weight lifting analogy seems inaccurate - technique can beat strength (far too much nuance over looked for me) - Using different tools seems like someone anyone can rather than a 'type' - Fixed and Growth mindset (assumed Carol Dwecks work) seems inconsistent here - fixed mindset sticks which what they do so why would they go looking for new/better technique? - Avoiding failure can be people in growth mindset - Types seem like level of expertise, making them very dynamic. How can that be used? tracked/measured/made aware off FYI - I am an "Other" type according the quiz...

Hello Dr.Justin sung, im truly impressed by the depth of insight provided in this video ,Your expertise in this area is truly valuable, and I believe that it would be incredibly beneficial for many individuals if you were to consider authoring a book or a series of books on these subjects. Your ability to communicate complex ideas in a clear and engaging manner makes your insights extremely accessible and valuable to a wide audience. I imagine that a book from you could serve as an invaluable resource for anyone looking to enhance their learning and cognitive processes. I eagerly anticipate the possibility of reading your work and gaining deeper understanding from your expertise. Best regards Your student 🤘

subscribed to your channel, god bless you for helping millions out there . i am 32 now but i always had problem in learning. i hope your videos will help me

Please do an in-depth video on the conceptual framework of learning/dimensions of learning

Keep doing what you are doing This seems so promising ❤

Im amaze with you're knowledge about how learning works, how can you know so much about those?

Wow you don't know how happy I am to find your channel. I am going back to school after 18 years, and I was freaking out. appreciate your videos. cool you are in Auckland, I'm in Tauranga. Being a dad of 4, going back to school, trying to get a degree after never even finishing college, faaar bro, your help is invaluable.

Thank you so much! That was helpful to understand better my struggles the results were that I am the Unchained type

Also do a video on the last two dimensions! Great video

You really know your stuff. respect to you.

12:30, Damn! Stop calling me out Dr. Sung! The diagram that you showed at 12:58 really sums up my life lol. Consuming content, but not doing anything about it. Thankfully I have been getting better in these past days.

Please do learning styles. This video was so helpful for me. Thank you

i love you content justin! thank u so much!

Nobody gonna talk about how smooth that pen flicking was of Justin 🔥 6:44

I'm a last year medical student and i have recently seen your videos and i already LOVE them. I've always loved these topics that you cover and honestly you are doing my dream job. I just wanted to let you know how inspiring you are and i hope you get better and better everyday😍😍

Ill definitely be using that course

Can you please make a video on how we can train and develop our deep processing habits?

Great video. I want to hear about Self management and Retrieval Practice too.

Thank you, Justin and the team, for the great video! I took the free test and got "other" so I started thinking would it be possible to share the full test for a fee, separate from the rest of the course?

I like how you use research! Where do you get your research articles? I’m interested in reading then

I want those last two dimensions, so here’s me best guess. Retrieval practice is your strategy to memorize things. Self management is how efficient and disciplined we implement learning into a schedule.

First.

I love your videos all of them actually so thank you ,but please don’t use loud music and a lot of different sounds for editing it’s so distracting.

Awesome thanks so so much man.........

commenting rn to positively influence your fate and quality of life, doctor! Keep up the good work and make sure to rest well.

Thank you Justin for all your videos :)

Wow it is each an eye opener

try the quiz twice, both times the result was Unchained. i wish i knew effective methods at all so i can learn all the things i want. I think im trap in the circle of wanting to improve and not nowing effective ways to learn in a consistens manner o learning at all

What’s your opinion on active learning? Like Quizlet, etc.

What do you mean by Self Management? Do you use it in a casual way or it has different meaning? How could someone assess he is good at self management or not and the ways to improve it ?

thanks a lot for this video. Very helpful

Please make a video on Learning Styles please

6:44 Slickest pen twirl I've seen in my entire life 👀 I can't be the only one replaying it over and over... right?

Really lucky about reading mindset by carol dweck before meeting you. There are lots of bumps along the way but hey, i persist

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO OMG

We appreciate your videos

I truly needed a video like this

Great video. Though I've to ask, what does the dimension of "self-management" entail? My first thought was your idea of learning enablers, but you said most people aren't lacking in it, so now I am not sure. And separately mindset is already a part of the enabler skills.

So the quiz was why the video was late. Good work as always! A bit disappointed to get the other result though, I want to have a label :v

I really appreciate what he is doing.

Man this is so insightful

Please provide the info for Sparks AMAZING video, I am deeply grateful:)))

I would like to see a video about learning styles, please

Great work

Hello Dr.Sung, please add this video at the start of the playlist you showed at the end…

I hit the like button and even better I subscribed to your channel.

😊 thank you

It is so helpful for me

Hello Dr Justin I was hoping if you would recommend a book for us that can help us understand more about learning Thank You

Tysm for this

I almost never comment in all my life of youtube, but please make more videos like this, it really helps alot

thank you!

Hi @JustinSung I would like to know if there is any difference between having deep processing and high IQ, and if so how do they relate and interact with each other. Thanks

Which is better vocalizing something to memorize or just processing something to memorize?

Deep processing is underrated yet yields better overall results/performance especially in the academic field. But, if I may ask. How do you do "deep processing"? If one can improve one's deep processing ability, how can we measure it? Can we even measure it?

Hi Justin, what do you think about memory coaches like Anthony Metivier?

Thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Thank u so much for offering free tools from ur paid program. Even a small sample is better then no knowledge at all.

Great sir 👍

thank you justin!!!

deep processing seems very fixed in this video even though it was mentioned you can change it because of neuroplasticity. im dying to know more about since I didnt really grasp this too well in the video.

It wasn’t until I got to college that I had to learn how to study. I felt deflated in the beginning of college because before college, I was able to grasp materials while in class without opening my texbooks.

Thank you so much❤🎉

That was amazing

Thank you for sharing the knowledge! It´s very useful. And greetings from Germany!

Love this

Is there a way to test where your deep processing skill lies? That is, a way to measure how good your deep processing skills are?

You know dr justin,when you mention about train deep processing it reminds me about jasson padget who got savant syndrome after terrible accident.Jasson padget is a normal person with not good deep processing before accident he took in head.Then,with the example of jasson padget, could you give me some steps for banging my head or make accident in my head so that i could get increasing my deep processing? (Bercyanda ku bercyanda)

Algo give this man a raise

Hey Dr. Justin, are you going to be releasing those I can study t shirts? I really like them

I am curious to know my learning type am in others😂😂😂 when is the next video??? Plus what's your type Justin?

I would be really interested in how to help my kids (10 and 12, non-English natives) achieve that

Hey Justin, when u say "relate it to the big picture" What do u mean, I know the sentence isn't in this video, but it's on other videos, really curious, please reply this. And if anyone APART from Justin, kindly reply me

형님 영어 정말 잘 하시네요!!!

I accidently learnt to do deep processing in high school. I can confirm that studying is easy for me. Even if I write down linear notes, I still have a map of the theme in my head and do better in tests then other studients. Of course, if I use better methods, I get even better results.

I really don't know where I fit in with those and the free quiz also just gave me the information "others"

Thank you

Bro please do another video on mindmaping

Hi Justin, I hope you are well. If we wanted to book a session with you how would we go about this? I would like to have a better understanding of my learning style. For me I think I really tend to do well with a teaching style rather than a lecture style. If the information is spoken to me from a student summarised notes rather than a professor speaking I am able to digest the information better. I tend to like situations where I am able to ask questions and speak out loud to someone so I am constantly clarifying my understanding. I think this helps to keep me more engaged and it really helps my dopamine levels when someone says “yes you have got it”. It makes me confident that I am on the right path. I probably prefer application based learning to lots of theory and content. I think being a good student is more about discipline than how much like something because surely you can’t like every topic. Also I find that if I work alongside someone who has a genuine interest in the topic it tricks my brain in a way to also be interested in the topic. I also believe what you mentioned about pre-studying makes sense as once I had to retake a year and found that the year I did not do well in acted like a form of pre-study in my mind. The second time round I was lucky that the teachers suited my learning style and I used a lot more application based styles such as past papers but I managed to hit about 90 + % in quite a few of my modules which were mostly Maths and Science. Also when doing past papers I found myself putting t.v programmes on in the background helped me to concentrate but I am not sure if it is an ADHD trait. I also found that just by hearing about the concepts before even if it was badly it made me tune in more attentively into the actual lesson. Saying that I found University very difficult like you said as it involved a lot of self regulation and lecture style based learning. But I would like to improve myself from this experience. I am just not sure if my style of learning is more interactive?

good video thx.

what would be a good study method for a karp ?
