Here is my problem I have severe difficulty remembering street signs from the book and answers to test questions :cry: my question for everyone is, Is there some way to get by this?

Hi,

The only thing that I can recommend is that you try hard to picture the words in your head, instead of trying to just remember them. The brain works best with images, and that's the fundamental way of learning things.

review them everyday . draw the sign, them write it down, and say it out loud . go over the signs every day once or twice. each day you will remember more and more with time. try to explain to your self out loud to understands what the sign is telling you and why does that symbol represent what it does. not just memorize it

yes it is a lot of work but you need to use all of your senses. Get a teddy bear and teach the teddy bear the signs out loud. you may have to go and find each sign on the road and visit to understand why it means what

good luck
