memorize, wait for a few seconds,… the wait should be as long as possible without losing the

information” rehearsal will help you retain material.

I will give a clear example of how rehearsing repeatedly can play a modest role in

remembering and how learning can be enjoyable when employing rehearsing as a strategy in

learning. Back in my high school time, I used to get a lousy grade in chemistry. This resulted

during classroom teaching, but when the exam comes I get a failing grade. This happened

because I could not recall some concepts and procedure, especially in lab practices.

One day I was anxious to know how the top performers in chemistry made it. I approached

one of my friend who explained the methods and strategies he uses to study the subject. He

told I only need to rehearse repeatedly after class teaching and more fluently towards the

exams period. I bought the advice and practiced it over and over on throughout the term. I did

not believe it until the chemistry exam paper was in front of me. I still doubted that I might

not remember what has been told just like before. But the things were different, when I started

answering the questions, I could easily remember everything, and as a result, I thought the
