Mnemonics techniques
These mnemonics can be applied immediately, although it certainly pays off to
practice them first. All of these mnemonics are based on elaboration and association,
which why we start out with these. Elaboration adds more meaning to a word, while
association makes sure that two words are thoroughly linked together in memory.

Basic mental filing
Peg mnemonics
In the simplest version of this technique, a peg words is associated with each
of the digits 1 to 10. It is then possible to associate the peg word with things-to-remember,
for example, a shopping list or a speech. Variants include peg systems for the alphabet
and months of the year. Peg mnemonics allow more advanced mental filing than the
basic mnemonics. Most of these techniques can be learned in 20 to 30 minutes, although
it requires some practice to get the most use out of them.
Rhyming Peg System for numbers 1-10 or 1-20
Shape Peg System for numbers 1-10
Alphabet Peg System for letters A-Z
Calendar Peg System for months January to December
Intermediate mental filing
Advanced mnemonics
This technique requires a greater time investment (at least two hours, plus regular
practice afterwards), but the pay-offs are considerable, such as remembering lists
of over 100 items.
Phonetic Mnemonic for numbers 00-100 and higher
Expanding existing mnemonic systems
Advanced mental filing
Number Shape system
This is another peg system, much like the number-rhyme system but more suitable
for those with visual learning styles (a one looks like a candle; a two looks like
a swan, and so on).
