To piggyback on
+1 with Bob's advice.
To learn the DH rule you have to break it down into it's component parts in the rule book. Take your time, and work hard on each section until your clearly understand it. Flowchart it, or set up a series of if/then statements like you are writing a computer program in BASIC. You'll get the rule if you work on it.
Once you grasp it, then find some situations and apply the rule to them. Even if you have to write out situations on your own do it. Then after you write the situation down, leave it for a day and come back to it, so that you are looking at it as an unknown situation.
As to the other advice, there are many places where you can find laminated cards with the rule printed on it. I know umpire.org/ABUA has them, and I think Honigs does too. Until you have it in your brain, that's the way to go.
Just take it one section at a time until you understand it.
