The main idea is simple.First,choose any topic you want to learn and write down everything you know about it on a piece of paper.Next,pretend you are teaching it to a classmate who doesn't know it.51. While explaining,you might find yourself getting stuck.This is a good sign!It shows you exactly which parts you don't understand well enough.When that happens,you should go back to your books to review and learn more.

My challenge was a long English poem full of new words.I couldn't remember it by just repeating it.Then I tried the "picture-story method"-turning each line into a simple image in my mind and linking the images like a cartoon.For example,"a shining star over a lake"became a clear picture.This worked because our brains remember images better than words.The pictures gave the poem order and meaning. Once I imagined the first line,the rest came easily.I felt proud and learnt that with a good method,my memory could be improved. That's all.Thank you.
