If you are the parent,
who decides to be actively involved in the educational process of your
children and would like to be certain that they will succeed
academically, - the following couple of paragraphs are for you.
It is now known, according to numerous studies, that there is a profound link between music and
intelligence.
Since education is one of the key elements to future success, if you were shown a way to increase your child's I.Q.,
- piano lessons serve as the first major steps in this direction. Besides offering help and
encouragement, learning piano is another important "educational tool" that can help your children achieve greater academic
success and prepare them for the future.
Children that take piano lessons learn valuable qualities such as concentration, coordination and confidence.
Based on a study of psychologists Dr. Gordon Shaw and Dr. Frances Rauscher at UC
Irvine (Published in the February 1997 issue of Neurological Research), -
"music lessons, specifically piano instruction, is far superior to computer instruction in dramatically enhancing children’s abstract reasoning skills necessary for learning math and science."
Overall, the children who received the piano/keyboard training performed 34% higher on tests measuring spatial temporal ability.
It is an amazing result, - isn't it ? |
