Positive Impact of Playing an Instrument:
Music will open doors and create opportunities.
It provides an opportunity to build relationships.
It creates long lasting memories with friends.
Students can take their music career to all different levels such as high school, college, or even professionally.
It builds better practice habits which allows them to learn how to be proactive and to work hard in order to complete their goals.
The practice skills learned can be applied to school work and eventually in their personal life and professional career.
It teaches that everything takes time but it also takes a lot of hard work and dedication. Without trying, you will not be able to continue growing as a student or as a person.
You must work hard to make your dreams and goals come true.
