I am not good at promoting things, but this is perhaps the best book for parents of young students. The book describes a large number of techniques for making the learning process easier. You no longer need to go in search of, collecting bit by bit, whatever might help you in the learning process.

Everything is included in this book:

How to memorize large amounts of information and difficult names

How to learn foreign words

How to correct mistakes in vocabulary words

How to increase reading speed

How to quickly summarize a paragraph, focusing on the main idea

How to remember numbers, dates, telephone numbers, and much more

Besides this, the book also describes the psychological aspects of learning.

How to talk with the teacher the right way

How to increase a child’s self-esteem

How to motivate, and so on.

Our brains (and the brains of children) are capable of a great number of things, we only need to know how to correctly memorize, reproduce, repeat, present. If we do this using specific algorithms then we will waste significantly less time and effort and have guaranteed results.

I am writing this with such certainty because I myself am studying and applying the techniques of effective learning and I can see they work.

Now my oldest child is only in preschool but we are already using some of the techniques with him.

“Green pen” for motivation

Mnemonic “Cartoon” for foreign words

Correct repetition according to the “forgetting curve” of Ebbinghaus for optimum memorization

Mind maps for structuring information and training connected speech

“Funnel” technique for eliminating mistakes

“Artist” technique for memorizing poems

And many others.

After trying these methods for myself and my child I am convinced that learning can be easier, faster, more interesting, and produce better results.

To all parents who see this, if you do more than just read this book and actually implement at least part of the recommendations in your life, you will immediately notice positive results and see how much the learning process of your child has improved in school.

It will boost your child’s school performance and self-esteem while at the same time reduce the time spent on homework.

Parents will spend less time stressing about the process and will save money on tutors.

Teach your child how to learn and it will be the best investment for your whole family.

I was fortunate to be able to read the book Techniques for Effective Learning. Encyclopedia for parents of schoolchildren. I could relate to every line and it brought back memories of my own school experience, causing me to analyze and rethink the motives behind the actions and teaching styles of the teachers. There were some things from the book which I had already applied instinctively myself back then, for example, associations, and these techniques have always worked. The book is laid out very nicely. I enjoyed the description of the four ways people take in information. It is very comprehendible and clear. It is written in a way that is very easy to read and understand with many examples of practical uses of the techniques. The book is a wealth of tools for teaching any school subject and more. It reveals how to set attainable goals and reach them, and also how to improve self-esteem, something some adults could learn as well. The descriptive mnemonics are truly marvelous. The most important thing is that they are easy to master and can be used in a playful manner. Practically any problem that a family could face when teaching a child is shed light on. The only thing left is to open the book to the right page and try to implement what is written in your situation. In a word, the book is wonderful. I am glad I have it.

The current state of the education system can be summarized in one word: CHAOS. There is a complete lack of any actual kind of system. While some try to hold on to the Soviet system (at least there was something back then), others look five steps ahead and go in search of a new way of doing things. I don’t know about other students, but my son could not be interested by the Soviet system; they tried but it didn’t work :) We had to look forward. For a long time (two years) I searched for different approaches, methods, systems, and I found a lot in the American education system. Despite how Americans might be criticized, it was a necessary measure for me. I found small bits of information which strangely worked, and worked successfully. Thanks to these I later found myself on Renata Kirilina’s blog where she (which I am really thankful for!!!) describes and explains the innovative methods in detail, clearly and concisely.

The book Techniques for Effective Learning from A to Z, in my opinion, is the education system of the future. If anyone is looking five steps ahead then this is the book for them. All the methods work, and many I have already tested myself during lessons with my son. Some of the techniques in the book were like a new discovery for me, and we are sure to try them out.

I will definitely buy the paper version of the book as soon as it is out. I highly recommend it for any parents of school-age children.

I want to tell you about the book Techniques of Effective Learning from A to Z. Encyclopedia for parents of schoolchildren by Renata Kirilina and Sergey Kirilin. It is a dream come true! Finally there is a book which contains all known techniques for effective learning. I was very interested to read Renata Kirilina’s articles on VK and was worried that a lot of time would need to be spent finding the right article at the right time. Now everything is in one book with very concise headings, as always by these authors. My daughter is going into the first grade next year and this book is like a gift to me. I have become more confident and relaxed. I know how to help my daughter with her future in school.

The book is just great! It is difficult to even pick out some articles as they all contain very useful observations.

I regret not knowing a lot of it myself when I was a student and wasting a lot of time.

I can’t wait for the printed version. I recommend it not only for parents of school-age children but also to university students and school teachers!

I have decided to review the book Techniques for Effective Learning from A to Z by Renata Kirilina. It is truly a wealth of information.

Although we already knew part of what was written and had implemented it in our lives and in the learning process (again from publications of @rkirilina’s “Glad to Learn”), we also discovered something new and intend on trying it and getting more results.

It is especially valuable that all the techniques are given in a playful format which is interesting for children.

It is a big advantage that all the techniques were created keeping in mind the individual psyche and maturity level of the children.

The information is given in a structured, albeit condensed, format. These guidelines should be enough for any parent who thinks and cares about their child to understand and apply to their own lives.

I recommend it!

The book Techniques for Effective Learning from A to Z is simply a treasure trove for parents who want their children to learn more easily and with interest. It contains many helpful techniques which make it much easier for children to learn. The step-by-step description of every helper explains what and how to do in the specific technique. I read the book in one go. I recommend this book to all parents. The advice in this book can help you make it easier for your child to take in information when learning, thereby helping them remember the information forever.
