Memory techniques
9 guides, each written to be the last page you need on its subject, and each ending in something to practise here. If you have never used a mnemonic, take the first group in order.
Looking for the reference tables? The Major System chart lists a peg for every number from 00 to 999, and the ten-grocery challenge is the link method as a five-minute exercise.
Start here
No system to build. Learn to turn a word into a picture and join two pictures.
Numbers
Digits become sounds, sounds become words, words become pictures on a route.
Cards
Fifty-two images, one route, and the compression trick competitors use.
People
The everyday problem: a name is a sound with nothing to hold on to.
Every guide links to a drill. Numbers, cards and words practice score your recall and feed the misses back into your personal dictionary.
