Less is more!

"Don’t overdo it; shorter, smaller, or subtler is better!" says Chris Stamatakis, my boss at Ecole Shakespeare.

 

 

To say less is more  means less is more effective. This expression can be used to say that it’s best to do something quickly, or that it’s better to use a small amount of something. In general it means “don’t overdo it.” The expression was first used by the English poet Robert Browning to describe the ease and simplicity of painter Andrea del Sarto’s work.

 



Chris says :

Select your words when explaining ideas. Choose words with impact and repeat same ones. Less is more. Allow them to learn thru giving them their own examples of what you've just said. They'll make mistakes and that will be more impressive on them.
If they're impressed, they remember.
