The best advice: do it many times in many modes.
We can learn languages better if we understand how memories work. It's like learning how to play soccer. Practice makes perfect.
Scientists will tell you that the hippocampus and other parts of your brain work together to connect the wires, to build that memory or to rebuild that memory.
Hence, to remember something your brain goes through the following process of what is known as encoding. First your brain consciously registers the memory (e.g. putative failure). This is called encoding.
We need to repeat our use or expose ourselves to the variety of ways the target expression is used in context.
- "Perhaps one of the principal goals of education is to alter learners’ beliefs about themselves by showing them that their putative failures or shortcomings can be ascribed to a lack of effective strategies rather than to a lack of potential. "
Hence, the best way to improve your memory is to keep remembering the same thing, over and over, and vary its context of use, in as many modes and media as possible.
If you can do this, you will be successful in your language learning.
