BENEFITS OF A MUSIC EDUCATION

Confidence.
A child with self-confidence has a better grip on handling life’s many curveballs. Playing an instrument instills confidence and helps a child to overcome shyness.

Coordination.
Piano lessons and music study help students develop manual dexterity. The child who takes piano lessons often does better in sports because of good eye-hand-ear coordination developed.

Creativity.
Music helps a child explore his or her imagination and encourages creative thinking. Soon, that child learns to improvise at many things in life.

Discipline.
Through regular practice and playing, students graduate to a higher level of self-discipline.

Satisfaction.
The knowledge that something has been accomplished, even as small as a musical exercise, teaches satisfaction in a job “well done”.

Sociability.
Piano lessons encourages a child to reach out toward new friendships and grasp opportunities for social interactions.

Fun.
A child learns right away that playing an instrument is terrific fun! It teaches the joy of participation and offers a welcomed alternative to watching TV.
