Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
there are a few different depending on what type of learner you are

for visual people it often is most helpful to look at the lines and say them in their head over and over, this way they will be able to picture them in their mind even without the script

for auditory people it can be very helpful to do one of two things, first you could record yourself saying the lines and listen to that over and over again this will help you memorize the way most people memorize songs over the radio!. Once you feel that you kinda have it down you can utilize the other technique which is recording the lines before and after your lines to test your cue lines and make sure that you are memorized!.
*ex) Mom: go clean your room
You: but i don't want to!
Mom: you need to, now
You: but mom that's not fair! your room is messy!
Mom: if you talk back to me again you are not going out tonight with your friends!.
You: mom!
Mom: go clean your room!'
You Ughhh, fine!.*
in this example you would record all of moms lines and say yours from memory in the order that they come!.

for tactile learners (touch)
it helps most to write down all your lines over and over

and for other learners (i forgot the name)
saying the lines out loud over and over again can be extremely beneficial!.


in all cases repetition is key!.
your brain can also only handle so much
meaning that this is how the human brian works when it comes to memorizing or studying
for 15 min your brian is very active and can retain a lot of information
but after that 15 min, your brain goes into overload mode and will not retain any info at all, you have to let it rest for about 5-10 min doing something different, then it will be ready again to start over and memorize again!.

This one isn't really well known about!. You say a sentence of text, then you spell out the letters of each word till you have spelled all of the sentence out!. For example!. I love you!. I love you I!.!. I love you I l!.!.!. I love you!.!. I lo!.!. etc!. Then after that you associate the phrase with a few things like love is like happy, hearts, cupid!. etc!. I hope it works for you and it is all based on sound principles!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

Memorize the last line first!. When you have it perfect add the line in front of that and perfect!. You are always moving to what you know you have perfected!.
Keep adding lines until you have it all!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
