The Brain

The way the brain learns best for anything - academics, arts, sports and anything else works very differently than the way most of us have learned to learn.

The very few that understand the unusual ways it really works and do that regularly seem gifted, talented and highly intelligent, but anyone can do it. If learning the right way can get those results, imagine what a little bit of it can do for your academic, musical or athletic performance. Just a little will increase your skill significantly and allow you to perform well in real-time whether it is a test, concert or game.

The answers are in psychology and neuroscience applied by an experienced teacher.

      I am profoundly appreciative of what my students gained from listening to you tonight. For me, it was a great “booster shot!” Thanks for your important (deliberate) work and thanks for your time and energy!

      Since his visit, I have had students stop me and tell me they have started using Mr. Goodhart’s recommended practice techniques and admit that they are working. Mr. Goodhart has planted an important seed amongst our music students. We are all grateful to have had this experience.

      Mr. Goodhart’s presentation was very well-received by our music education students at the College-Conservatory of Music in Cincinnati! He is a very motivational speaker and he covered a great deal of material in a short amount of time.

      You have provided one of the most beneficial presentations to my teachers I think they have attended since I began working with the school. It’s not often when you meet someone who understands and works to apply time maximization and utilization properly to achieve positive results.
