Creators of magic: PLEASE consider teaching as a separate skill that you need help with unless
you're already an accomplished teacher. We would say to someone who wants to get into magic: please
study and get mentoring before performing. Same thing with teaching.
The trailer has
subtitles but the instructional video does not. When trying to focus on overcoming cultural
differences on how English is pronounced, it's harder to follow the instruction. Please include
subtitles.
Also, please tech magicians, slow it WAY down. There are clicks and steps done
that are obvious to the teacher but not to the student. Some of this may be facilitated by a
generational divide. (Again, trained teachers know all about this and what to do to overcome it
effectively.)
Also, if you make a mistake please stop, rewind, and tape again. Mistakes are
another distraction. Moreover, welcomed is an outline of what's to come at the start of the video.
If I can rewind enough times, and overcome the significant teaching limitations, this
sounds like it will be a wonderful addition to my repertoire.
(Please excuse me if I sound
too critical. This is just an ongoing theme that I don't see many discussing within the magic
community.)
Teaching needs improvement
