Memory strategies, also called
mnemonics, have been used for thousands of years. They enable learners
to store verbal material and then retrieve it when needed for communication.

visual images and sounds.

3.
Reviewing well: This category contains just one strategy, structured
reviewing.Looking
at new target language information once is not enough; it must be reviewed
in order to be remembered
4.
Employing actions: The two strategies in this set,
using physical response or sensation and
using mechanical tricks,
involve some kind of meaningful movement or action. These strategies will
appeal to learners who enjoy the kinaesthetic or tactile modes of learning.
Memory strategies are clearly
more effective when the learner simultaneously uses metacognitive strategies
like paying attention, and affective strategies, like reducing anxiety
through deep breathing.
