Visual memory techniques help you picture something in your head. You can write words in special shapes or colors, or you can highlight words. Drawing cartoons and illustrations are also visual memory techniques.
Auditory memory techniques are excellent strategies to help remember things. We all know how easy it is to remember the words of a song. You can create a rhyme or a song for any topic.
Try to act out words with simple movements. You can even create a dance about certain facts, or you can write words in the air.
You will find that it is easier to memorize and recall information when you use some—or all—of these techniques.
