A visualisation requirement led me to abandon a Mandarin course: miraz.me
You know when you’ve had a dream and you can sort of remember it in the morning — but not quite? That’s what my visualisations are like.
That’s an excellent description of what it’s like not being able to visualize. Very well put.
@Miraz I use visualization to remember things; I make ridiculous flash stories in my head for that, so visualization for me is a good tool. But I’m with you about the pushing to advance course! I stopped going to a Yoga studio among other things because of that.
@jtr I’m glad to know visualisation works well for those who can do it. 😀 I also understand the free course is their tool for getting folks to pay for the rest, and fair enough. But the push was so strong, so hard, so early. I guess they wanted to catch people when they were high on learning two words and before they fell off the track with 5 words. My last straw was when they texted me the millionth message to sign up now as all the emails hadn’t worked.
