What is the fastest and most efficient way to learn large alg sets?

[bananapoopking]

So, I've been speed cubing for only a year using 2 look oll and pll. I want to learn full pll, but I feel that the way that I learn them isn't efficient (the next day I forget). How should I learn the algs? If this is an opinion based question, how do you learn large alg sets?

well this is the way i learn algs i do 1 or 2 a day always,

i wake up and learn the alg(s) (so that i can execute them and i have a rough idea of the recogniton) i just practice it a few times i spend no more than 10 minute on this.
Then later in the day i practice it instead of solving so on the way to school or when im at launch ill be practicing the algs
then in the evening i just try to reminding myself of the recognition, and doing some solves until i recognitize it in a solve.

i think the main thing is that you always learn the alg early in the day otherwise you will forget it overnight

Divide them into smaller sets, and when I learn algs I will try to learn one of the smaller sets every time I learn some, unless they're like more than 10 algs, but you can learn at whatever pace you want.

Day 1: J perms, R perms
Day 2: G perms
Day 3: T perm, F perm
Day 4: Y perm, V perm

Day 1: J perms, R perms
Day 2: G perms
Day 3: T perm, F perm
Day 4: Y perm, V perm

If you're going to be doing it that fast you'd have to spend a lot of time nailing the algorithms along with their recognition.

Learn 7 or 8, at a time, or at least a few more than feels comfortable. Initially make sure you get to a point that the one you've picked is the right one and feels comfortable. Make a little summary sheet and print it off unless you always have your laptop on.

Repeat the algs at different times of the day. You can do this by just fiddling, it doesn't necessarily need your full attention, you're building muscle memory, so can do it while watching TV or something. The first 1-2 times you may need to re-learn the alg though.

When you come to a point when you know 5 or 6 of them, use them in a solve, bingo! Go learn some more, or revisit the ones you forgot.

As already suggested, I would learn in sets, there are common features that crop up and make it easier. Triggers, mirrors, etc. For example g-perms, and if you recognise a g-perm and you know all of them you know you will be able to execute it, rather than, o crap that's the one I don't know yet.

I am currently in the process of learning full cll on 2x2 and Here's my suggestion on learning alg sets

First start with easily recognisable cases, then move on to more difficult ones.

For cll, I started with h set first
Then pi followed by sune and antisune cases. Since L and U are difficult cases I learnt them last so I had the practice to learn more

Learn under pressure. I memoed all 57 OLL algs because I had a comp coming up.

You can learn 5 or 6 of the easy cases in one day. But once you get to the longer harder ones learn 1 a day or 2 if you can.
