🪄 Long-Term Retention
The Leitner System solidifies the long-term memory by spacing the review sessions over time and prevents losing the learned material acquired because of the process of cramming in the short-term.
🎯 Effective Learning
You have a better time for the tough material and less for the easy one, and the whole process is time-effective and efficient.
🧠 Active Recall Training
Each review session triggers active retrieval of the information by the brain, which has been proven to improve memory and comprehension substantially.
⏳ Spaced Repetition
It applies the scientifically proven principle of spacing — the review of material at longer and longer intervals has the effect of solidifying memory and minimizing forgetting.
📉 Reduced Overload
Your daily load is reduced as your level of expertise improves because the well-practiced cards are moved to the boxes where the reviews are least often.
🚀 Motivation Boost
Progress seen — with more cards moving to higher boxes — visually, enhances ability and keeps the learners encouraged to continue.
⚙️ Flexible Customization
Number of boxes, review intervals, and type of material can be adjusted to your study time, subject, or learning style.
📲 App Integration
Flashcard apps now operate according to the Leitner system automatically, so it is easy to take advantage of online spaced repetition.
📚 Any Subject Resistant
Leitner System is not only suitable for languages, science facts, formulae, or history dates but for nearly any type of information.
🏆 Ongoing Improvement
With each review cycle, recall speed and depth of knowledge increase, thus leading to continuous improvement and proficiency in the subject.
