Раньше забывал имена сразу после знакомства, а теперь благодаря приёму с ассоциациями запоминаю всех на встрече. Техники для списков и фактов оказались на удивление простыми, и я уже применяю их в работе каждый день. Концентрация тоже заметно улучшилась.

Namen onthouden was altijd mijn grootste zwakte op het werk, en juist daar heeft deze cursus me enorm geholpen. De koppelingstechniek waarbij je een gezicht aan een beeld verbindt werkt verbluffend goed; ik vergeet nu zelden nog wie iemand is na een eerste kennismaking. Ook de methodes om lijstjes en feiten vast te leggen passen prima in mijn dagelijkse routine. De oefeningen waren kort maar zeer praktisch. Mijn concentratie overdag is er merkbaar op vooruitgegaan.
