But one key is this: you let the student choose (within some limits) what he or she would like to memorize.
I can't stand Will's When Icicles Hang by the Wall, which I can still recite, because I was forced to learn it at school. It was probably Greasy Joan that killed it for me, and I resent the space the poem occupies in my brain - I need that space for other stuff, dammit!
