At an Early age, Jerry realized that being a successful student in school took knowing not only how to learn but also how to retain educational information. He became determined to develop ways to make the learning process fun,easy and long lasting.
Like a farmer who plants small seeds in the soil and Carefully Tends Them So that they grow, Jerry has devoted his life to cultivating ideas and methods for fun and easy learning and memory retention. The resulting methods are now known as the lucas learning system™ and have earned him the title of Dr. Memory™.
