I learned in pree school that languages should be practiced aloud.
And any fact should be re read an mas.
Temperature in the room should be low depending on where you live.
I live in place with an average temp during summer at about 25 Celsius, so 16-18 C is the temp I learned to study in.

Take breaks evry so often, you wont remember shitt if you read 4 hours non stop.
Have a drink next to you, maybe a snack.
Write down keywoords that make sence in your head ( woords that make YOU remember a sentence/paragraph ).
Begin by studdying what you like, that takes the least amount of time to remember and stick.

Just a few tip's off the top off my head. Hope they help you

I find that when I actually write down the things I need to know on paper that I will memorize it better.

Hello;

I'd advise reading your intended information 3-4 times minimum; take a break, then repeat the process. You could also relate information to other knowledge you already have acquired. OR, you could relate a piece of information to an item - like a necklace. Whenever you touch the necklace, think of information you related it to.

You could also create acronyms. Any example is:

MVEMJSUN. Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. -- MVE Micheal Jackson SUN (as in son).

Best of luck.
