  • I love your videos and I thank you for uploading :) just a tip, from a qualified teacher- make the verbal instructions short and simple- the words plus movements need to be heard then processed by the brain, before the viewer can mimic you. The more wordy you are, the more processing we have to do... it makes the learning slower rather than easier. Hope that makes sense and isn't offensive in any way! Keep up the good work, please!

  • @aylablue669 I agree and in the past have considered making a new vortex tutorial. This tutorial was one of my first tutorials back when I didn't write scripts or do much planning. Now, including my most recent videos, I write scripts and plan and weed out unnecessary words/shots that I feel can distract from learning. Thanks for your input

  • Great tutorial! I've watched many and this is by far the most comprehensive :)

  • @jennknits: Cool, thanks! I feel like I really want to teach every aspect of a trick, though I find it very challenging to do so because sometimes I'm not quite sure how I actually do the trick, when it comes to explaining it, until I've studied video of myself performing the trick. I find it's easier to say "do this," and expect people to understand by watching the video vs. explaining in detail exactly what I'm doing, which is something I'm working towards. Thanks for your acknowledgement!
