How can I effectively memorize the Qur’an?

Assalamu alaikum, I’ve been distant from practicing Islam for a long time, honestly. I stopped praying about 12 years ago, but alhamdulillah I started again this Ramadan. I feel like memorizing the Qur’an is the way for me to reconnect. I never left the faith-I always believed in Allah, subhanahu wa ta’ala-but I neglected that bond for way too long. Now I want to commit the Qur’an to memory, hoping it’ll guide me back, insha’Allah. Usually my memory is pretty good, ma sha’ Allah, but it’s just not sticking. Should I try listening to the recitation while reading along? Maybe start with Surah Al-Baqarah? I’m open to any tips. Jazakum Allahu khairan. By the way, I’m French-born with a Moroccan dad and Algerian mom, and I can read Arabic even though I don’t speak fus’ha. I can’t really ask my parents about this.
