In recent years, a growing number of psychological studies have shown that music courses promote both neurogenic and psychological development.
"Learning music improves cognitive and non-cognitive performance twice as much as studying physical education, drama and dance", and the study found that children who choose music classes "have better cognitive abilities and academic performance, responsibility, cheerfulness and ambition", and this is just the beginning.
What are the benefits of music learning?
01
Enhance your reading and oral expression skills
Gives you the opportunity to have better learning potential than others.
Some studies have found that there is a strong link between tonal processing and language processing ability in brain blocks, and through a series of comparative studies, children randomly assigned to music training have much better reading performance than other children who have been assigned to visual and painting courses.
02
Improve your mathematical and temporal and spatial reasoning skills
In elementary school, music training helps children to be smarter and better to learn.
Music is closely related to mathematics, and children with high-quality musical training tend to perform better mathematically because young music players can grow and improve in their thinking about abstract time and space.
03
Gives you better hearing
This will be helpful when you are older
Musicians who are still playing instruments lose their hearing ability much more slowly than the average person.
Musical training makes people more sensitive to hearing and benefits more obviously as they get older.
Musicians who are still playing instruments lose their "peripheral hearing ability" much more slowly than the average person, and they can maintain good conversational skills in noisy environments.
04
Strengthens the motor cortex of your brain
The impact of music learning on memory and hearing can benefit you for a lifetime!
Playing all instruments requires a high level of finger dexterity and accuracy.
The training of music activates the motor cortex to an incredible degree, and the benefits extend to other non-music-related skills.
The study, published in the journal Neuroscience, found that children who learned music before the age of seven performed better on non-music-related movement quiz programs.
05
Enhances visual long-term memory
Music learning here emphasizes brain development, rather than memorizing the way of learning.
Musical training can also affect long-term memory, especially in terms of vision.
Scientists at the University of Texas at Arlington last year found that musicians who have played instruments for more than 15 years perform better than others in the long-term memory of patterns.
06
Makes you more creative
Scientists have studied that the impact of children's music learning on memory, hearing, creativity, motor nerves, etc., can be used infinitely in long-term life.
Creativity is something that is notoriously difficult to measure with science, and there are always deficiencies in any way it is measured. But most research sources say that musical training, especially creative musical activities, helps to increase creativity.
