I work in a children's preparatory center and I work with children to find out their mental abilities. I notice how many children nowadays have bad memory and I was interested to find out why this happens and if it is possible to help them. I found this article about how to improve short term memory and started using the techniques described in the lessons with children. I noticed that the techniques really worked and the children are now memorizing information faster and more efficiently. Maybe these techniques will also help you to improve your memory.
