Episode 312: Learning about Laughter

From when Andrew studied under Shinichi Suzuki, he remembers the great teacher using humor while he taught. Grateful for the humor, Andrew asks, "What makes something funny?" Join us this week as Andrew explains the health benefits of humor, discusses its value in a classroom setting, and shares the different components that make things humorous.
