Remember the Daf day after day and experience Daf Yomi on a completely new level. Discover the ground-breaking memory program designed specifically for Daf Yomi, that helps you remember three topics on every Daf with instant recall. Learn the most powerful and effective memory strategies and techniques that will help you establish long term success in retaining the Daf. Zichru is the perfect supplement to your favorite Daf Yomi shiur, for those interested in remembering what they learn in an organized and systematic way. The Zichru app gives you access to a 14-Day Coaching Program to help you get off to a strong start and to the comprehensive suite of materials produced for each Daf. Listen to the short (~20 minute) daily shiur which introduces and explains three topics on the Daf, followed by the siman, the memory aid, which enables one to recall which Daf the topics are on. The shiur also includes a quick eight-minute review of the previous four blatt and a ten-question pop quiz to test one’s recall. In addition, colorful illustrations and animations are provided to enhance visual and auditory recall. While the Zichru program has been developed for Daf Yomi and is following its current cycle, the program and materials will help anyone remember the masechta of their choice, regardless of learning pace.
