The Feynman technique follows a few key steps, which I’ve simplified and updated based on my own learning experience:
STEP 1: LEARN
First you must identify the topic you want to understand, research it thoroughly and grasp it from every direction.
STEP 2: TEACH IT TO A CHILD
Secondly, you should write the idea down as if you were teaching it to a child; use simple words, fewer words and simple concepts.
STEP 3: SHARE IT
Convey your idea to others; post it online, post it on your blog, share it on stage or even at the dinner table. Choose any medium where you’ll get clear feedback.
STEP 4: REVIEW
Review the feedback; did people understand the concept from your explanation? Can they explain it to you after you’ve explained it to them? If not, go back to step 1; if they did, move on.
