<ol><li>Teach it to a child. Write down what you know about the subject in plain language. This forces you to understand the concept at a deeper level and simplify relationships and connections between ideas.</li><li>Review the gaps in your knowledge that you uncovered in step 1.

A good indication that your understanding in that area still needs some work is If the explanation isn’t simple or sounds confusing.</li><li>(optional): Transmit.The ultimate test of your knowledge is your capacity to convey it to another.</li></ol>

4 Steps to the Feynman Technique.
