The term in question is about how you understand it and put it in your own words. I don't think Nabil needs a definition for the word "magnet" here, he could have looked it up in the dictionary by himself.

I didn't do or say anything improper Sir! You have explained your point of view and I gave my own view of the phrase. It seems some colleagues are convinced with it without any references.

IMAN,this is not a proper way of discussing translation at all.Please provide your references because you have to in order to convince us with your translation.According to dictionaries,'magnet' is contradictory to the meaning intended in the English text

Hi Sir, Actually I think that 'magnet' can never mean 'fond of' or 'attracted to' simply because 'magnet' in itself means an attractor(something/somebody)..That is why I see a contradiction in the term 'learning magnet' if compared with that context.
