Read a LOT and the things will go into your head.
A few: itchy dust 10 10 (conjugation endings for regular verbs ich--e/du---est, t, en, t, en)
ZAP--Zeit Art Platz--time manner place--for the order of adverbs in a sentences "ich bin am Samstag langsam durch den Park gelaufen.
when--Sat
manner--slowly
place--through the park
der word endings:
reesy,neesy, merman
with m/f/n/pl and Nom. Accus. Dative across the left:
-er -e -es -e
-en -e -es -e
-em-er-em-en
Sing dative preps to the Blue Danube
(aus, ausser, bei, mit, nach seit, von zu)
two-way preps --Dative-dead (just sitting there)
Er sitzt im Stuhl.
accusative-active (going to a place)
Er geht ins Kino.
Of course you have to know and understand the basic rule before the mnemonics make any sense!

With a question like that, you need a lot more than secrets. I mean, I could give you some, but you'd have to be more specific about what part of the grammar you want help with, else I could write 3000 words.

specific, German may be very complicated for a close-by English speaker. Coming from a language with one gender like english, to having 3 may be very fantastic and complicated. i might propose sorting out a language equivalent to French or Spanish first, that's going to likely be easier. yet once you do not techniques it being puzzling, then circulate with German. that's a uncommon language. lots of the words sound very comparable to english, and French, and a few of them are way way fantastic. And the third gender isn't very common. that's used, notwithstanding if now not that traditionally, so do not enable it scare you away :)
