How to help your child remember what she reads 

With exams round the corner, wouldn't it be every child's dream to remember whatever she reads? Well, science can help 

Remember and not memorize it 

Associate the information you are reading to something that will help you remember it for long. 

Link the information with something 

Encourage your child to express what she just read in her own words, both orally and in written format. This way their mind will register the information. 

Summarise after reading 

Instead of treating it as a task, tell yourself that you are enjoying what you are reading. 

Focus on enjoying it 

It may sound crazy but tell your mind that you are liking the part you are reading and it will spike your interest. 

Trick your mind into liking what you are reading 

This is the most basic tip that will help you identify the important lines and will save you the time to go back and forth through the books 

Highlight important lines 

If you keep studying without taking breaks for a workout or a cold shower, the mind will become dull and you will struggle to register concepts. 

Take breaks 

Take colourful sticky notes and jot down information you are finding tough to process - and keep reading them and deciphering them. 

Make important notes 

See your friend struggling with some part, take it upon yourself to coach them and you will see how you are able to grasp it for longer.
