People's refers to more than one person, so the possessive noun should be plural: people's names. Also, their names should be plural because the speaker is referring to the names of multiple people.

✓ When I meet some new people, I try to repeat their names a few times in my head and associate them with the place or situation where we met.
People is already the plural form of person, so peoples is incorrect in this context. Their names should be plural because the student is referring to multiple people's names.

✓ When I meet some new people, I try to repeat their names a few times in my head and associate them with the place or situation where we met.
The structure I to try is incorrect. After the subject I, use the base verb try without to. Also, where is needed before we met to connect the relative clause correctly to place or situation.

✓ When I meet some new people, I try to repeat their names a few times in my head and associate them with the place or situation where we met.

× Actually I don't mind it because it is normal thing for people. I also forgot their names.
✓ Actually, I don't mind it because it is a normal thing for people. I also forget their names.
A singular countable noun such as thing needs an article. Use a normal thing, not normal thing.
× Actually I don't mind it because it is normal thing for people. I also forgot their names.
✓ Actually, I don't mind it because it is a normal thing for people. I also forget their names.
The question asks about a usual or general situation, so use the present simple forget. Forgot is the past simple form and would describe a completed past event.
× Not usually, but when I meet a group of new people, I forgot their name but I repeat their names in my head and associate with the time, place or situation.
✓ Not usually, but when I meet a group of new people, I forget their names, repeat them in my head, and associate them with the time, place, or situation.
Their refers to several new people, so the noun should be plural: their names. Using the plural form makes the pronoun and noun agree.

✓ Not usually, but when I meet a group of new people, I forget their names, repeat them in my head, and associate them with the time, place, or situation.

✓ Not usually, but when I meet a group of new people, I forget their names, repeat them in my head, and associate them with the time, place, or situation.
The verbs repeat and associate need an object. Them correctly refers to their names, so repeat them and associate them with the time, place, or situation are complete constructions.
