One might find that he or she has to memorize a poem, an event, or even a story for school. This guide will help point out tips for all types of learners from visual to auditory to imaginative. Methods of memorization are not "better" than each other, each is within itself good. It all depends on what type of learning styles a person prefers. Visual Learners: Read the words in your mind until you think you have it. Make a small stack of flash cards with their sequence number on the front. Get somebody to ask you what the first word or line is and then continue on from there. Associate a line or word with an object that you're familiar with and then create a scenario where it can be used. Auditory Learners: (About 30-40% that a person hears is retained in their memory.) Reads the words aloud. Get a person to listen and push you along. Repeat the lines until you know that you have them memorized. Get a person to read you the words. Imaginative Learners: Imagine the words in the air and then say them out loud. Take each line step by step like a stairway. Once you have one line, read the next, all the way repeating the previous lines; do this until you have the entire thing down. Associate a line or word with an object that you're familiar with and then create a scenario where it can be used. If you can find a way to view the words and hear them at the same time, that would be the best way to go (80% of everything heard and seen is retained in memory). Kinesthetic Learners (Feel): Act out what you're saying. Create some kind of sequence for what you're doing and the words will become second nature. Write the words down; since your mind processes the words to write, you've already begun to memorize it. Write a small amount of the words on post-it notes and then stick them around the room that you're in. When asked to, point at the note that matches the sequence. Randomize them so that you get a better feel for it. Note: Only a small portion of the population is a kinesthetic learner. Though we may think we learn by doing, most of us learn by reading and hearing. Some tips: Tell yourself that what you're memorizing has to be known. Unless you have to memorize something, the chance of it being remembered isn't very good. Work in a quiet, stress-free environment with a person that can help. Only attempt to memorize something hours before going to bed; being fatigued damages the way that the mind keeps information.
this guide is not very good. no pictures, very short. i guess you learn a little something form it though. 4/10
This only explain the method of memorization, it doesn't explain how each method is better than each other in situations, you should include more details 6/10.

Basic... But I like that you gave three methods for different types of learners. I've had to memorize poems and I hate it. Memorization is stupid, moronic and should never be used unless you have to... Like poems... Work on the layout some. Make the headings bold or bigger or something. Maybe even a different color. Try and make it centered even.... Its kinda plain right now and just looks like a block of text. You want to try and capture your viewer with a good visual presentation before they read it. You could expand more on the different sections a bit. Maybe give more than 1 way for each type of learner.
Although direly inextensive, the content is reasonably good, although the guide itself was awfully monotonous and boring.
I think that this guide is too short without enough details. It gets very boring just reading text so I suggest adding some pictures or diagrams to make it more interesting and better looking. Go into better detail such as the advantages over each method, and maybe add a index for better organization. Next time I would pick a topic in which you can add some visuals and expand on it more than you did in this guide.
^ Seconded. Also, you didn't tell us how one would know what type of a learner one is. Thus guide means nothing without that.
Ok guide, does look a bit plain. But i'd say about a 4/10. Need to add some colour, change the layout.
Hmm, it's pretty short and simple but I do like it, some nice idea's. But what about Kinesthetic learners ..?
