I've learned more than I ever thought I could

I've learned song lyrics, people's names, phone numbers, birthdays, I have even learnt a lot of the Polish language - all things I never would have dreamed of being able to do before doing this course and learning the Magnetic Memory Method techniques. It's changed the way I approach everything in my life. I recommend everyone in my life to learn these practices.

I learnt to rap from this course

I started Anthony Metivier's Magnetic Memory Method a few days ago and have been very slowly working through the first part of the course.

I like to apply what I learn as soon as possible, so I took my initial memory palace and within an hour I have learnt all of the lyrics to Blackalicious' Alphabet Aerobics. It was a bit of fun and I was amazed at how easily the entire song stuck in my memory. Now I have the perfect party trick for this holiday season - roll on New Year's Eve!

Anthony has been very responsive, I received a reply to my email within a couple of hours (and my email was just me waffling, he didn't need to reply) from which I judge that he does genuinely care about your success with and enjoyment of the course.

I am a studying for a firefighting leadership course next month and I'm looking forward to using the techniques in MMM to learn some more complex and technical topics.

Reply from Magnetic Memory Method

Thanks so much for starting to apply the techniques so quickly and for sharing your experiences.

I do love that my teaching success has enabled me to reply personally to everyone interested in memory techniques and other aspects of mental training.

And I too memorize complex lyrics and poems, so understand the joy that it brings. Both ourselves and others when we entertain and amaze them with the miracle of memory.

Thanks again and I look forward to your future updates as you continue adding on more and more layers of mnemonic skill!

Learn to learn, grow your memory, surprise yourself

I have been trying to learn Irish for half my life by various methods. I enjoyed weekly evening classes, loved summer schools in the West of Ireland and worked diligently on and off through multimedia courses. But I made little progress. I almost immediately forgot most of what I learned; recall of what I knew was painfully slow and fluency was a far-off dream. I knew that the problem wasn't that I couldn't learn a language, since I had become fairly fluent in Spanish when I lived in Spain for a year. The problem was I needed a different way of learning. I am what teachers call a concrete thinker and I need a sort of total immersion - I learn through my senses and imagination, not by abstractions. So it was a lucky day when I started watching Anthony Metivier's Magnetic Memory podcasts. The way he described the memory palace method was entertaining, scholarly, practical and, best of all, a multisensory method, the way I learn best. I knew I had to give it a try. After a few false starts with locations that were either too dispersed or not well enough remembered, I chose my secondary school as a memory palace, a good choice as I have clear and fond memories of it. I copied the 300+ items I wanted to remember (lists, dialogues, grammar points etc) on to cards and filed them under 26 rooms. Then I put objects that represented food items in the canteen, transport in the bike sheds, health in the medical room etc. Some rooms had a few items, others had more. Having done that, and going mentally round the school a few times, Anthony's method has really started working in a wonderful way. For example, when I want to remember a dialogue in Irish about where people are in a house, I imagine visiting the Geography room and see a bucket (which represents for me dialogue 7) and the more I do this, the stronger the memory becomes. This might sound a small achievement, but remember there are another 300+ objects around the school, representing the entire corpus of what I want to remember in Irish. You really have to give it a go to appreciate what a real break-through this is and the potential it opens up.
Anthony Metivier really understands his subject and believes what he says. He is clearly humane and passionate about lifelong learning and the way he speaks about characters in history who practised the art of memory is inspirational. So if you want to improve your memory or learn something old or new, I really recommend this as your method and Anthony Metivier as your guide .

This an inspiring review to read. Thanks so much for sharing your journey!

Your results are exactly why I am so passionate about teaching this skill.

I'm also very enthused that you appreciate the time and effort I put into featuring the memory masters of the past. They offer so much we can learn from, but can be hard to read, so I'm grateful for the interest and support that enables me to work on making their teaching accessible in our times.

Keep up your incredible progress with language learning and developing your memory. Action inspires us all!

Fantastic lesson plans and approachable prof

I took Anthony Metiviers Language of Learning Live course, which has all the components of the magnetic memory method. The lesson plans were really well thought out, it was taught in an approachable and easy to understand manner, he provided fantastic additional resources, and most importantly, the support he provided was invaluable. There is no shortcut to improving your memory, it definitely is hardwork at the outset and this course doesn't deny it, but if anyone can smooth that pathway out for you and make sure you have some fun and hit all the check points to get there, it's Prof Metivier.

Dr Anthony Metivier is a great teacher

Dr Anthony Metivier is a great teacher. I have been immensely helped by his Masterclass course. The memory techniques are really something else, it untied the knot in my heart that came to existence due to rote learning and the terrible schooling systems. Finally.

Thanks Anthony, again, for everything.

So glad to have you as part of this program, Dionysios.

Your commitment to using the Magnetic Memory Method to help yourself so you can help others is inspiring.

And your excellent questions throughout have been wonderful. It's such a nice surprise to see your review here and I look forward to hearing from you again as time and memory allow!

Extremely satisfied

Outstanding experience.

I´m currently learning a new language and really have trouble remembering new words. I just had no strategy how to proceed. Luckily the MMM Masterclass gives me a "system" on how to work with my mind and creativity to store information of any kind (not just vocabs) in my longterm memory. Once you have the system in place it is so much easier to proceed- I am just amazed how quickly I can store new information in my mind and also recall these at a later point. It´s a great confidence booster. I just wish I had found this course years ago.
One additional point is the outstanding communication with the team. All questions or concerns are answered very fast.I can just recommend this course to everyone to give it a try and you will be truly amazed what your mind is capable of. Thank you Dr. Metivier!

Its a great investment for life

different roles in life demands verity of memory skills to be the architect of your dreams. with following the MMM teaching, and Dr.Anthony advices-he replays to you with fast, concise, genuine feedbacks- I reached to many Memory breakthroughs I didn`t expect to have one day. and I guarantee anyone who put the time and effort on the program will reach a memory breakthroughs last for life. from learning English language to memorize hundreds of Names in weeks. the method is a playground games. I personally recommended the program to my family and closest friends. the great thing is they noticed how my memory improved significantly. Its a great investment for life.

P.S: If I didn`t use the MMM to learn English language. I have no Idea how I would write this review in English.

Current Student in the Magentic Memory Method Master Class

Hello I'm David,
I purchased the Magnetic Memory Method Course a couple of years ago. I initially found Dr. Metivier via the many many Youtube videos he has posted regarding the subject of memory. Before you believe me or anybody else I would watch some of his Youtube videos there and try his free course.

You can get started using the Memory Palace right away after doing the short free course.

The MMM paid course gets deeper in to the Mechanics of Memory Palace Construction, Do's and don'ts. How to customize information/palaces for various subjects such as Math, Poetry, Languages, Science etc. Some visualization exercises. I would be very shocked if anyone could find it lacking anything, there is so much material there.

At this point after completing the MMM Master Class. I have the following really cool skills. Some of this was hard work on my own, but the concepts and the foundation was provided by Dr. Metivier's Instruction.

1. I have a peg system in a memory place from number 1 to 1000. This means 1000 locations that I can place information. This was based on the major system. I used the first 500 locations to put Arabic words in them.
2. I have memorized maybe 1,500 Lebanese Arabic words and definitions in around 200 other Memory Pallaces.
3. I remember peoples names and enjoy doing it, using memory palaces.
4. Have incorporated Memory Place work into every
day of my life and believe it to now be a lifelong hobby.
5. Can memorize a deck of cards. Which didn't seem humanly possible to someone like me before I discovered the Memory Palace Methods Dr. Anthony prescribes.
I'm almost 50 at this point. I pretty much gave up on anything scholarly and pretty much figured I would be going down from here. I am happy to say that daily memory training using the concepts learned from Dr. Metivier has really motivated me to become more focused and exercise my brain.

The course is free and you can see what kind of individual he is from the many Youtube videos out there. See for yourself.

It's wonderful to read this list of actions and accomplishments, David!

1500 hundred words is a great outcome, and it's great that you've developed a peg system based on the Major. Of course, there are alternative systems, but this one seems the most direct and logical.

Keep up the great activity with these practices and many more positive outcomes will arise!

I bought the course and tried using it

I bought the course and tried using it. It didn't work for me. He refused a refund.
Also Metivier is not a medical doctor, he has an advanced degree in film, not in medicine or neuroscience. That's a red flag.
Overall, I feel scammed.

Thanks for your post and sorry to read that you think there are any red flags related to this training whatsoever. It would be illuminating to know more about what specific steps you took, for how long and with what kinds of information, as I'm sure there are solutions for you and I am well known for providing an abundance of tailored additional instruction for those who request it.

My Ph.d. is in Humanities, not film. I'm not sure where it is written that one must be a medical doctor or neuroscientist to teach memory techniques, but would love to hear more.

If you requested a refund, it may not have been received. If you're willing to give us the benefit of the doubt and reach out, so long as you were in the guarantee window, this is no problem at all.

There's no scam here, though I would recommend people use discernment when reading anonymous reviews and use critical thinking and research to determine the value of a training program. Memory requires individuals to take various actions, which may include communicating with the instructor directly, not via a medium like this website, which is itself as worthy of scrutiny as are the individuals who seek to punish content creators with their anonymous posts.

Worth Every Penny

Dr. Metivier is, in my opinion, is the most prolific teacher in the memory field. I've paid thousands of dollars for over-hyped promises with regurgitated and antiquated training stuffed into a shiny new box.

Dr. Metivier's training and private student group are worth 100 times what he charges. His unique approach to Mind Palaces and his innovation of the "Bridging Figure" (characters that make navigating and retrieving information in a Mind Palaces a breeze).

As a disabled veteran returning to college after 20 years, I was overwhelmed with the amount of information and how it was delivered. After a few months of taking Dr. Metivier's training, I went from being overwhelmed to being one of the top students in all of my courses. I can't thank Dr. Metivier enough, his training has helped this old sea dog learn new tricks... he's the real deal!

Thank you for sharing your experiences!

I'm glad the Bridging Figure innovation has proven so useful for you. It was a huge game changer for me as well, especially since it taps into things that are already known - a huge part of what makes it all "Magnetic."

Above, I'm glad that this training has helped you reduce overwhelm. That's a fantastic outcome and I can't wait to hear more over the years to come.

Waste of time

I got here from an email saying it was a free video.
The website title clearly states "Free Video:"
Yet there is a absurd cost of "$1,686.00 Value - Today Just $497"

Thank you for your post.

Yes, the free course is free. Of course, people need to "pay" the price of their time, focus, attention and consistent practice in order to unlock the full value.

And the full program helps them in each of those areas by accelerating the process.

I always encourage people to complete the free course first, and if they wish, go through it multiple times. It's the actions you take that makes the difference in the end, not the consumption of the lessons on its own.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions and I'll be happy to get them answered.
