Welcome To The Beginning Of A New & Improved Relationship To Your Memory<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Welcome to the Magnetic Memory Method website! I’m Dr. Anthony Metivier and I’m thrilled that you’re here.<\/p>\n

Many people worry about their memory. Whether it’s struggling to recall names, constantly losing things or feeling overwhelmed while studying for exams or learning languages, it’s natural to feel anxious.<\/p>\n

Struggling to learn is a serious challenge \u2013 one that traditional education only sometimes<\/em> addresses. Certainly not enough as it should.<\/p>\n

That’s why after learning to use memory techniques myself in graduate school, I decided to help people overcome memory challenges of every possible kind.<\/p>\n

My Background<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I hold a PhD in Humanities from York University in Canada. My BA and MA were also completed at York, and I earned a second MA at the European Graduate School in Switzerland. I have taught at York, Rutgers in New Jersey and the University of Saarland in Germany where I was a Mercator guest professor.<\/p>\n

My scholarly background provided me with a deep understanding of many cognitive processes and the research skills I’ve applied to understanding memory techniques throughout time and how they’ve been used around the world.<\/p>\n

Why I’m Best Suited To Help You Achieve Your Memory Improvement Goals<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Simply put, I care.<\/p>\n

I feel that I expressed why I care so much about helping people with memory when I was invited to deliver a TEDx Talk in Melbourne, Australia. It has since been viewed over 3.5 million times. In this talk, I explore what I believe to be one of the highest goals of memory training: combining improved cognitive function by combining memory training with mindfulness techniques.<\/p>\n
