Here is one way to help you remember hiragana

(think of hiragana as shorthand for characters)

Here are all the hiragana symbols with pictures to help you remember the SHAPE, the SOUND of the hiragana and possibly the rōmaji spelling. It is very important to remember that the sound is based on British English words, so don’t pronounce the English as if the words come with any American accent.
