Well, there are instances where mnemonics help, but for grammar, there are more useful for exceptions than rules you can just practice until you get it right.

I had more difficult with the conjugation of adjectives than verbs, because it was a foreign concept to me. You do not conjugate adjectives in English, and while 'gender' and quantity modifies adjective in French, tenses do not.
