Essential basically means it cannot be synthesized in the body and has to be taken through any external source
So by a mnemonic you can remember all essential amino acids

Every capital letter is an essential amino acid
A-arginine
H-histidine
I-isoleucine
L-leucine
T-threonine
L-Lysine
M-methionine
P-phenylalanine
T-tryptophan
V-valine
Rest all are non essential like Serine and glycine and can be synthesized in human body
Hope it helps
