When i was assessed i was advised of a trick to remember things.
my main memory issue is peoples names and names of things and places.
i was advised to think of something funny or odd about what i need to remember like a curious look of someone or something about the place or item.
for example i recently took on an allotment to grow my own fruit and veg and have struggled on the difference between broad-bean and runner-bean.
to remember the difference and which is called which i relate broad beans to being a broad (wide) bean and runner as a bean that runs away with its length.
this little trick seems to work for me.
