Employ active recall.
from Limitless: Core Techniques to Improve Performance, Productivity, and Focus by Jim Kwik
Active recall is a process through which you review material and then immediately check to determine how much of it you’ve remembered. Studies of student learning practices reveal that it is very important to memory formation to occasionally retrieve the information you’re trying to memorize. Using active recall will help you to strengthen memory and recall information.
