Use Your Creativity to Bring Information to Life

Use your creativity to make a memorable movie or picture

When memorizing foreign words

Break them down into smaller words which sound similar to others

Make them sound funny or absurd

This way they become more memorable

Use the SEE method

Senses

Create a multisensory image

This is far easier to remember than simple text

Exaggeration

Create funny, fantastical images

Energize

Add a bit of action to make the image more vivid

Use Sounds to Remember Numbers and Dates

Transform numbers into images that will stick in your mind

First, change numbers into letters / change how those letters sound

Example

Number zero

Can be represented by the letters s, z and c

Think about a hissing wheel

0 looks like a wheel anyway!

Each number from 09 can be assigned a group of similar sounding consonants

You can also use the shape of the numbers to assign sounds

e.g. flipping a 3 makes it look like an m

Now, if you're trying to remember a date, write down the letters that represent them and try to make up a word

e.g. 1969

No need to remember the first 1 because most important dates we want to remember happened in the last millennia

969

b, sh, p

BiSHoP

Then use the SEE principle to try and picture that word as something memorable

Use the Four C System to Remember Names

Concentrate

Say the name out loud and repeat it

Create

To make it stick, take the name apart and use any words that come to mind to create a memorable image

Connect

Connect the image with the person's face (think of their most striking feature!)

Continuous use

Revisit the names, maybe add them to your diary and review them often!
