How can I memorize Surahs if I don't speak Arabic?

Assalamu alaikum everyone! I'm looking to start memorizing Surah Al-Baqarah and would really appreciate any advice you have. What methods work best to help you remember what you've learned? Also, about how much is realistic to cover each day without getting overwhelmed? JazakAllah khair for your help!

I do a page a week, sometimes less. It's not a race! The goal is for it to stick forever, not just to finish fast.

I listen to a reciter on repeat while reading the transliteration. It helps a ton with the pronunciation even if I don't understand the Arabic fully.

Don't stress about the meaning at first. Focus on the sound and rhythm. Your heart will connect to it, insha'Allah.

I feel you! I started with the last juz. Much more manageable and gives you confidence to tackle longer ones like Baqarah later.

May Allah make it easy for you! I use apps that break it down. Try to find a teacher online if you can.
