It may sound counterintuitive, but the number one thing that helps your memory is sleep.

Did you know your hippocampus—the part of your brain responsible for memory—works overtime while you sleep? This is when your brain processes and organizes the information from your day, turning it into long-term knowledge.

That’s right—dreaming is part of your brain's memory recall system.

Too many students believe pulling all-nighters is the key to success, but the science shows it’s doing more harm than good. Lack of sleep interrupts this critical memory consolidation process, leaving you less prepared and more stressed.

At Untapped Learning, we help students develop personalized routines that include structured study times and, importantly, the rest needed to lock in what they’ve learned. By focusing on executive function skills like time management and prioritization, we empower students to study smarter, not harder, and achieve their academic goals.
