=OOOOO YOU WANNA KNOW WHAT I DO!!? lol
Okay well, do you like listening to music and singing?
Lol, well what i do is write out my review and then i
record myself saying the review.
Then I listen to it over and over, like you do a favorite song!
Haha, well it works for me.

Try it out, i mean writing the review out, you’re learning, then
saying it out loud and listening to it, you’re also learning! And
memorizing!!

Haha, yeah. That’s my help.
=D

Use word association. One example I used this week was for remembering what “pavo” meant in Spanish. I thought of pavo as “pavement” and a turkey half trapped in pavement. Do the same for English or whatever. Just come up with some crazy thing that involves what you’re remembering. It works very well.

I know a great way to improve your memory.

What you have to do is learn the information multiple times in close succession.

Or, you can learn the information multiple times in close succession.

You can also learn the information multiple times in close succession.

You could also try to learn the information multiple times in close succession.

It would probably help if you tried to learn the information multiple times in close succession.

Lets see if you can remember what I wrote in this post when you remember things you’ve read on this site … lol.

Learn the information multiple times in close succession.

I m kind of studyholic [not really~!!!]
my grades are ok.

u can try flashcards. [a pretty good game]
or,
after class or before u sleep, close ur eyes and try to flash back wht u learned.
then, u surely remember that for a long while, since it is easy n memorized.
U can skip those parts u know u understand and remember, and focus on the parts u cannot remember. [it is a fast way]

PRACTICE~!!!
Normally, a professor [here I mean math, science teacher, not history] gives u some problems deal with the basic. [for math & science, please dont skip the homework. although u dont need to return it, JUST TRY SOME PLZ. DONT BE LAZY. SOLVING ONE PRO. or JUST TAKING A LOOK STILL IS BETTER THAN DOING NOTHING.] SOMETIMES BASIC PROBLEMS WITH LITTLE TRICKS~! u understand the basic, n it is not going to be hard.

MEDIA, DRAWING A PICTURE, HAVE SOME FUN.
To history, information… History, Econ, etc., get bored, u can draw some pictures[getting some fun] or graphs on ur notes to help u memorize. Making ur outline is good, too. But, I worry u dont hv time.

THERE R SO MANY THINGS U CAN TRY. ALL U NEED IS relax and enjoy.

ur brain hates suffering. it doesnt like to be forced.
