If the audience illusion is performed after being taught a different illusion, neither the student nor the teacher will receive credit of any kind until the teaching session expires.

	* As for teaching a student assigned to [[Illusions#Speed\|speed]] tasks, repetitions are only gained for each fully completed speed rep.
