A good example of it would be, in all stages of my whole life, in other words, from childhood to adulthood I cannot remember many events and scenes. In fact, not only do I have a good memory, but also I don’t have any skills to hone it. Because I have some problems and one of them is that I think during my life, I don’t have had good regime and nutrition. I really like being in this course, because it is believed that a good memory has many benefits. And I am really eager to know what is the course and how is it as well as what programs and skills will be taught. Since I am a poor person, I want to know what is the tuition for the course and when the course will start.
