How to Memorize



  1. Read out loud a portion of the passage which you want to memorize. Pick a portion

which can be retained in the mind.

  1. Read it out loud three (3) times.

  2. Then look up and say it out loud without looking three (3) times.

  3. Do the above once per day for four or five days

  4. On the fifth day try to join the portions together, maybe even the whole verse. Then read the whole verse three times and then look up and say it three times.

  5. Repeat this for a couple of days.

7. At the end of seven days merely read the passage once, then look up and say it once. You should have the passage memorized.

8. Go over the passage once every two of three weeks so you will not forget it.
