Read and write it out over and over again.

To memorise mine I wrote it out a lot, but I also wrote out dot points of the main events that occurred because i found that I remembered the paragraphs but sometimes when I was writing it out I wrote them in the wrong order. If you're super short on time (or just sick of writing it) try recording it and listening to it over and over. This can also help because if you remember how you say something then your more likely to remember it - if that makes any sense.

There is honestly no easy way to memorise. I often realised I spent more time looking for tips on how to memorise than actually tried to memorise. Read a few lines/a paragraph at a time. Slowly begin to look away from your paper as you read it until you can recall it without looking. Next start the next paragraph and say the first paragraph off by heart before repeating the first few lines of next. By advancing like this ensures you don’t forget what you have already memorised.

There’s really no shortcut. Just plain and hard memorisation.

Memorise paragraphs by paragraphs. Then, once you memorise a few, visual it and memorise.

The first step is to get yourself familiar with the text. Read it out loud, copy it by hand, create a short outline, or have someone else read it to you. Once you have a general idea about the text, it's time to come up with a way for your brain to memorise the least amount of information but still recall the words.

Hey.
Just to tack on to the end of the thread and provide a summary, here's what I would use:

• Rewriting the text. This helps (especially handwriting) as you have to go over words repeatedly. Consciously make an attempt to read each word, like you're talking to yourself in your head.
• Using it like a speech; talk to yourself out loud. Like memorising for a speech, practice going over phrases with passion and mood so that you can remember each paragraph smoothly. And like Lear said, slowly begin looking away from your writing until you don't need to refer to it at all.
• Recording your own voice reading it back to you and listening to this, or getting a friend to do a favour and read it to you. Even if you find your voice annoying, you get used to it after a while. It's a really good way to memorise because you can be doing other things while phrases are being dumped into your brain.

Use any of these a few times, and/or the other excellent methods given by the other users, and you'll do great.
