A very good book
The extraordinary dedication of the young Mozart, under the guidance of his father, is perhaps most powerfully articulated by Michael Howe, a psychologist at the University of Exeter, in his book Genius Explained. He estimates that Mozart had clocked up an eye-watering 3,500 hours of practice even before his sixth birthday.
pickGood, well researched, well written and encouraging. While not a parenting book I think it is also helpful from a parenting perspective.
This book is changing my perspective.
There is no such thing as natural-born talent. Practice is everything.
pickThis one is from our meeting with an inspirational Sarah who had set up her own community school in #Africa. We met near #LondonBridge and had swapped a great books, including Bounce (highly recommended book which emphasis the importance of practice)

Lowering standards just leads to poorly educated students who feel entitled to easy work and lavish praise.
