Lately, some excellent free memory courses have been showing up on YouTube.

The price is right, and the techniques are quite useful, so in today's post, I'll show you where to find these free video memory courses.

The first course is about one of the toughest, yet most useful, things to memorize - numbers! AEMind's YouTube account features videos on many aspects of memory, mostly geared for memory competitions. Here's his first video on memorizing numbers:



The links to the whole series (as of this writing, anyway) are below:

You'll also be able to keep up with any newer videos in the series via my YouTube playlist, Memory Technique 5: Phonetic Peg (Major) System.

As I write this, AEMind is also beginning a series on remembering names and faces. This, of course, is one of the most useful, and most-requested, memory techniques. Below is the introductory video of the names and faces series, and you can keep up with future releases through my Memory Feat: Names and Faces YouTube playlist.



Our next course comes from Kerin Gedge from New Zealand. Kerin's course teaches how to memorize long texts word-for-word. He teaches it from the standpoint of memorizing Bible scripture, but the techniques are equally useful for memorizing scripts, music lyrics, speeches, and more. Below is the introductory video of the series:



Here's the complete list of Kerin's text-memorization videos:
