Study advice: How to memorize vast info QUICKLY?
Your best bet is to knock down your speech into sections. Don’t try to memorize each word. Memorize the key points of that section. Example: “Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.” Eighty-seven years ago our forefathers started a new nation with the belief that all men were equal. Key words help considerably. Example: “December 7, 1941—a date which will live in infamy—the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.” 12/7/41 date, infamy. USA suddenly, deliberately, attacked, navel, air forces, Empire of Japan. I hope that helps. Remember to breathe and good luck with your speech.
