Studying music teaches crucial functional skills, addresses characteristics of emotional intelligence and reinforces skills necessary to function productively and successfully in life.
Music is a teacher on its own.
Music education encourages ownership of learning.
Research in music and child development has yielded the undeniable fact that participation in music instruction improves academic achievment and more.
Basically, when a student understands “why”, “how”, “where” and “when” to practice, they have been given power. They will feel a sense of responsibility, which will then lead to self motivation and routine. Ideally we want our children to have ownership over their own learning in every aspect of life, and music education is a wonderful way to teach this!
