Sure Nathan, here we go:

A) to remember

1) If we remember someone or something, we keep that person or thing in our mind or we bring that person or thing back to our mind:

Eg: I remember when we used to study in the library together.

Eg: I suddenly remembered that I had left the cake in the oven.

<em style="color: rgb(29, 42, 87);">2) </em>Remember to + infinitive means that we don’t forget to do something:

Eg. Remember to disconnect the tv aerial when there's a storm.

B) to remind

1) If a person or thing reminds you of someone or something, they make you think of that person or thing, or they resemble that person or thing:

Eg: That songs reminds me of when I was a teenager.

2) If we remind someone to do something or about something, we make them remember it or help them not to forget it:

Eg: He’s probably forgotten he was supposed to be pick up the shopping at 6. Shall I ring him and remind him?

Eg: I have an awful memory so this morning I tied a knot in a handkerchief to remind myselt it is my friend's birthday.

Now try using them in different situations:)
