How do we learn ?

It's said we learn at a faster rate as a child than at any other time in our lives.
I believe this is down to two main reasons.

A: We are open to new ideas with out fear doubt or
prejudgment.

B: We make an awful lot of mistakes and have to repeat
until we get it right.


Repartition,repartition

When we learn a new skill the mind must make new connections.
Making these connections memory is not an instant process
many reparatitions must be made to generate these memories.

The repartitions must be performed at a speed that the mind
can comprehend and without stress or tension or the mind will
learn this as part of the pattern.

Points to note:We remember;

10% of what we read

20% of what we hear

30% of what we see

50% of what we hear and see

70% of what we say

90% of what we say and do

So it's clear from this list that if we sound out the parts
we are trying to perform we will get there quicker.

To finalise by combining our senses we can learn more efficiently.

So next time you see a drummer sniffing his snare whilst playing a
new part you will know what he is doing............

Looking very stupid !!
