Make a clear connection between the information and what is already in your brain. This can be done by relating new information to something you already know or a story you've already heard. It is also important to take frequent breaks and not try to cram a lot of information into a short period of time. Additionally keep in mind that everyone learns differently and has unique ways of processing and retaining information so try different methods until you find what works best for you. Keep track of your progress and take regular tests to see what you've learned and what's still challenging for you to understand.
