    The three memory techniques that work best with me are jingles‚ words‚ and pegging. I recall information through jingles to be more effective. I memorized telephone numbers of my faculty with a jingle I made up. Their numbers are the same but their extensions are different‚ so I recalled the information easier. The least effective to me was the story lines because if I am able to create a story I will end up going off track and confuse myself. I learn more from a jingle than words or pegging. As
