    Practice makes perfect. Also try learning your facts by skip counting... 2,4,6,8,10. Or 2 *1 =2 2*@ =4

    You don't need to post again. Everyone here is volunteers, doing this for free around the rest of their life. You can't expect answers in an hour and a half!

    I can help a bit. Your own homemade flash cards.

    Hey, I had trouble memorizing too and with multiplication tables as well. My confusion was with knowing which one went with 54 and 56 and 63 and 64 which are 8 and 9 x tables.
    Well, the sum of the digits in the 9x table always add up to 9, hence 54 and 63 are in the 9x table and 56 and 64 are in the 8 x table.

    To make the 9x table super easy. Hold your palms toward you. Say you want to know 4 times 9. Fold down the 4th finger from the left. You then have 3 standing fingers to the left and 6 standing fingers to the right, thus 4 x 9 = 36.
