I suggest you read the whole article. I’ve heard of this system before. I’ve never been tempted before as I don’t really see where memorizing numbers or even short texts will benefit me greatly. However, I wouldn’t mind memorizing my students names. I really try to do this throughout the semester, but I find it so difficult. I’m not good with names in general, but I’m terrible with 30+ Korean names. I’m willing to try just about anything now 🙂
