Greetings from Victoria & Mariaemma!
September was a very busy month!
Our 3-day Level 1 LearningSuccess Coach class was
full and
we were delighted and honored to welcome a mom from
Colombia! She came many, many miles to learn more about
our program to help her own family, and also with
the vision
of introducing LearningSuccess in her country. She
will be
back in December for Level 2 and then on to Level 3!
We also welcomed back our Level 3 class for their
second 3-
day session of a year-long internship program. We
are very
fortunate to have so many people supporting our work
and
working toward private practice or school
implementation
certification.
We are also grateful for the charter schools that are
requesting workshops, seminars, and training
programs. This
week we will be presenting a day-long seminar on
learning
styles at Golden Valley Charter School in Ventura,
California.
This one is in our home town so we don't have to go
very far!
On another note...school is in full swing
(elementary through graduate school!) and by now
many children and adults are once again experiencing
the frustration of writing reports.
So we are
offering a SPECIAL BONUS this month to anyone who
purchases our LearningSuccess Writing Kit. You have
the opportunity to turn writing into a painless
experience for you or a child, and at the same time
get a free gift! Read the next article for more
information...

LearningSuccess Law #3 & WRITING!
What are LearningSuccess Laws? They are principles
that we have come to believe are essential for
learning success, life success, and all other
aspects of success. They are short and simple:
Learning doesnt have to hurt!
Success leads to more success!
Coaching brings out the Star!
This month we will look at the third Law:
Coaching brings out the star!
How can you bring out the STAR in every child or
adult, in any subject or skill? Is that even
possible? After all, one of the things we emphasize
in our LearningSuccess work is that every person is
different, possessing different sets of talents and
natural abilities. Besides,
in the last two newsletters we discussed Success
Laws 1 and 2, focusing on the fact that people need
to spend most of their time doing things that are
easy to learn, easy to do, and provide the most
successful experiences!
Yes, all of that is still true...AND
here is one of the most wonderful, magical aspects
of LearningSuccess:
You can follow Success Laws 1 and 2 (Learning
doesn't have to hurt, Success leads to more success)
AND bring out the Star in those areas that are not
strenghts or natural ability areas.
How? By applying a very powerful LearningSuccess
concept: the 4-Period Lesson(tm).
This concept explains how any new thing is learned.
The learning process goes through 4 periods:
Introduction, Recognition, Recall, and Fluency.
The reason so many students do not get to see their
Stars shine in areas of "difficulty" is because most
textbooks and teaching approaches completely skip
Periods 1 and 2 and jump to Period 3!
Take writing...the mere mention of the word strikes
fear in the hearts of students and adults across the
country! Why? Because those who do not have a
natural ability for writing never get to go through
Periods 1 and 2 in a safe, step-by-step learning
situation.
There is a whole foundation that needs to be laid
before we ask students to write sentences and
paragraphs. let alone a research report!
This foundation includes developing observation,
brainstorming, and organization skills. Period 1 and
2 processing occurs the whole time these skills are
being learned, resulting in the following:
ALL kids and adults will acquire skills that allow
their Stars to shine in the area of writing! Note:
This does not mean every single child and adult will
become a great writer or even really, really enjoy
writing. What it does mean is that every single
child and adult would pass any standardized writing
test that assesses paragraph order,
organization of ideas, and topic development.
Would you like writing to make sense and become a
thousand times easier for you or a child? Our
LearningSuccess Writing Kit provides everything you
need to make writing fear-free, easy, and even fun!

Did you know that...
writing can be easy?
outlines are not necessary?
you can learn to write without writing?
Would you like a new way to write-with
no stress...no pressure...no anxiety?
How would you like a writing course that
features:
1. the missing piece that is not found in any writing
program - the foundation
2. an easy way to learn the 3 skills that are necessary
for writing but are never taught
3. a format that is geared to each student's pace and
readiness
4. strategies for all learning styles
5. options for students who refuse to write
Here's what adults have to say about this program:
"I wish I had learned this when I was in
school. It sure would have made high school and
college easier..."
"I could never pass the promotion test at work
because I couldn't organize my thoughts to write
them down. After learning this method I passed and
now others at work are asking me how I did it!"
"Well, I finally understand how to do a book
report!"
And kids are saying:
"I loooove this program...I can write now!" 12th
grader
"I love this, I can do this..." 8th grader
"I think I'll make a tree and get my ideas
together." 10-year-old
"I'm going to write a story." 7-year-old who had
refused to write, volunteering to write a story!

LearningSuccess Tip: Memorize with Music
Is there someone in your life who has been asked to
memorize the states and capitals, the Declaration of
Independence, or any facts, dates, or names?
Make this process easier by setting the words to
music.
Why do you think commercials use jingles? And, by
the way, do you still sing the alphabet song to
remember the ABCs?
Try singing the Declaration of Independence to the
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star melody...We hold these
truths to be self-evident / that all men are created
equal / that they are endowed by their
Creator...etc.
Using music to memorize can work for all ages. And
if the person memorizing happens to have a music
talent and wants to make up his own melodies, all
the better. Add an interest in dance, and you can
sing and dance your way through studying for that
test.
Give it a try for yourself or your students...at the
very least you'll make learning more fun...
