See below.

Explanation:

1. Increase the temperature of the water. This will speeds up the movement of the molecules. As molecules move faster, they gain more energy and collide frequently. So this speeds up the rate of the reaction.

2. Increase the surface area of the salt. You can do this by crushing the salt. In this way more salts are being exposed to the water and more collisions occur.

3. Stir the mixture frequently, as you stir it you are spreading the salt around the water, increasing the chance of them coming into contact with the water.

I hope this helps you.
