Interleaved Practice: The Practice Tool that Separates Pros from Everyone Else

Interleaved practice is the ultimate tool to better prepare for your lessons, recordings, recitals, auditions, competitions, and performances. If your practice time at home goes really well, but you suffer from the dreaded "it went so much better in practice" during your lessons or any other time, this video is a must watch for you. You are likely suffering from the "illusion of mastery" that incomplete practice gives us. Interleaved practice is the key to true mastery, not just the passing feeling of mastery. 🎹 This is one module from an entire, 6-hour, course on how to learn more in less time during your practice.
