Who is behind Pleasurable Learning

I am Guillem Palau from Barcelona, Spain (born 1987). My name translated to English is William Palace.

I suffered a lot in the school system. I wasted my potential. I may say more than usual as I did nothing better than repeating 3 times the same high school year, followed by studying multiple bachelor and master’s degrees in college. Now I do learn purely following my learn drive, which luckily survived all years of coercion and I am willing to put all efforts to put the Prussian school model to an end by making people aware of the slavery children are suffering in the school system by writing, podcasting, tweeting, researching, learning.

Help me dedicate my full efforts to the cause: Support

Projects

Pleasurable Learning SuperMemo

Videos about SuperMemo 18 software, focused on Incremental Reading. How to's, guides, experiments, opinions, heuristic recommendations, hacks, and more. SuperMemo is a great tool that lets you learn fast and retain memories. It ensures 95% recall of the learned knowledge for life. You can get a copy of SuperMemo 18 here.

I started the channel back in August 2020 from day one, that is, from the very first time I recorded my experience learning in public. After about 40 hours of use, I considered I had acquired minimum proficiency of Incremental Reading and I changed the style of the videos. Initially were just screen-cast of my raw experience and some recap videos.

Pleasurable Guide to SuperMemo

Easier to digest and conveniently curated tips for understanding how to use SuperMemo for Incremental Reading. A mixture of text, resources, and videos from Pleasurable Learning SuperMemo.
