Keep your work as organized as possible. I find that just taking the time to sit down and file things away properly helps me remember them. And if you can reread your notes either the night you wrote them, or the morning after. But don't just read them in your head, reading them outloud will help loads.
Don't worry too much about learing things if you're just starting, as long asyou work hard, I'm sure you'll do well.

thanks alot, sometimes it just helps to hear a little encouragement. i've always been the type to read to myself, so i guess i'll try reading out loud
