Good Advice for Practice

In an earlier post, I talked about how I enjoyed mixing up the old and new words together, rather than mulling through the same set of random words again and again and again...

Well, you can imagine how surprised and relieved I was to find that I'm not the only one who agrees!
Jenni of Court Reporting Bound and Determined wrote up a wonderful blog post about this very thing.

I've only written up the section that really out to me:

Most of this repetition practice should be on the forms as they occur naturally in connected matter. The repetition of isolate forms for more than five times consecutively is not in accord with modern pedagogy. Scientifically graded connected matter has supplanted the isolated form.

So by golly, if something written in 1916 agrees, it must be a tried-and-true method!

Here's to steady practice.
