Practicing Sucks, But It Doesn’t Have To! is a new system of learning which teaches students, their families and their instructors how to derive the most benefit from instruction in the least possible time. In a no-nonsense but humorous style, it  offers hundreds of ideas, tips and suggestions which enable students to learn practically anything two to four times faster, easier, with more success and less frustration.

 

During the workshop/demonstration, Mr. and Mrs. Satz will take volunteers from the audience, teach them all the white keys on a piano keyboard, and how to read music notation and within  less than  ten minutes, the volunteers will play a simple piece on the piano by notes.

 

Although originally geared for music instruction, the Practicing Sucks, But It Doesn’t Have To! method works for anything requiring practice, study, repetition and memorization, and it actually cuts months, sometimes even years from the learning process. This new method of teaching/learning has engendered so much interest that the Florida Department of Education is including portions of the book in the new Sunshine States Standards. In addition, the Dade County School Board has scheduled a three hour seminar for school teachers, for which they will receive educational credit.
