Flashcards! They're a classic for a reason. Pairing elements with their symbols and atomic numbers can make memorization easier.
Break it down into chunks. Focus on one group or period at a time. You'll find it way less overwhelming.
Use mnemonic devices. For example, for group 1 elements: 'Harry Hates Lying Nasty Kids, Really Crazy Friends.' (Hydrogen, Helium, Lithium, etc.)
Practice, practice, practice. Repetition is key! Regularly quiz yourself and use online resources with interactive periodic tables.
