Hi, I'm Kelvin.

My memory isn't very good — and that's okay

Here's a secret: I'm not someone who found school easy. My memory is actually pretty rubbish! I would learn something, feel like I understood it, and then... poof. A week later it was gone, like it had fallen out of my head.

For a long time I thought there was something wrong with me. Maybe my brain just wasn't built for learning. If you've ever felt like that — like no matter how hard you try, stuff just won't stick — I want you to know something important: it's probably not you. It's just the way you've been told to study.

I tried EVERYTHING

I tried all the usual things. Reading my notes over and over. Highlighting everything in bright colours. Copying things out neatly. I spent hours and hours studying.

And guess what? Most of it didn't work. I was working really hard and still forgetting everything. It was so frustrating!

What I didn't know back then is that those ways of studying are lazy for your brain. They feel like work, but your brain isn't really doing anything. And if your brain isn't working, it isn't remembering.

Then I found the magic trick 🎯

One day I discovered something that sounded completely backwards: taking the test BEFORE you study. Getting things wrong on purpose! I call it Test First.

It felt weird. But for the first time ever... things started to stick! Not because my memory suddenly got better — it didn't — but because I'd finally found a way of studying that actually worked with my tricky brain.

After that, I found more tricks that worked. Testing myself. Spacing things out. Teaching my ideas to a teddy. Each one earned its place because it actually helped someone whose brain finds learning hard — me! I put all the best ones together into one system. That's The Stack.

Why I made this for you

Here's the thing that bugs me: schools teach you maths and science and history... but nobody ever teaches you how to actually learn. That's like being given a bike but nobody ever showing you how to ride it!

So I put all my best tricks in one place — just for you. Not one single trick, but a whole toolbox. Different tricks for different kids and different subjects, so you can find what works for your brain.

My wish is simple: I want you to get the grades you deserve, and to feel good about studying instead of scared of it. And I want you to learn it now, while you're young — not have to figure it out the hard way like I did!

A little bit about me

I live in the UK. I love learning about computers, technology, and especially AI (clever computer brains!). Even though my memory makes things harder for me, I never stop learning new stuff — I just have to use my clever tricks to do it. And now you can use them too.
