LEARNING A MUSICAL INSTRUMENT: VALUES & LESSONS TA

LEARNING A MUSICAL INSTRUMENT: VALUES & LESSONS TAUGHT This blog is all about the evolution of talent. But what happens if your dreams of your musically talented child becoming a world-famous violinist go up in smoke? After all—you’ve spent a small fortune on lessons!
All is not lost! There are MANY other values that a child learns when learning a musical instrument. Read about a few of them here: link in bio

WHY IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF MUSICAL TALENT SURPRISIN

WHY IS THE DEVELOPMENT OF MUSICAL TALENT SURPRISING?
Most people have the erroneous belief that exceptionally talented people are “born” talented—that they naturally have some exquisite talent that the rest of us missed out on because we were eliminated from that elite gene pool.
According to science—nothing could be further from the truth—and for some people—that comes as a surprise.
BUT—the BIGGEST surprise is—most musically talented people did not show unusual talent at an early age. And there’s more—click here to read the fascinating facts and studies of how musical talent is developed (or any other talent for that matter): link in bio

WHAT IS THE FORMULA FOR DEVELOPING MUSICAL TALENT

WHAT IS THE FORMULA FOR DEVELOPING MUSICAL TALENT IN KIDS?
What?! You mean there is a “simple” formula that parents can use to help their kids develop musical talent?
Well…nothing lasting or exceptional is ever simple, but there are steps that scientists and researchers who study the development of EXCEPTIONAL talent have discovered.
Here are 7 things kids and parents should know when developing musical talent—and for those parents out there who have exceptionally musically talented kids—what do YOU think it takes to develop musical talent?

MUSICAL TALENT—NATURE OR NURTURE? INQUIRING MIND

MUSICAL TALENT—NATURE OR NURTURE? INQUIRING MINDS WANT TO KNOW… Believe it or not, any “hobby or interest” can become a “talent” if you’re willing to work hard enough. Right?
Maybe Mozart was born with “natural” talents (he was a “natural” prodigy). But again, his innate talent increased because his father made him practice every day. For most of us—talent requires tremendous hard work, perseverance, and a “can-do” attitude.
So, is developing a musical talent nature, nurture or a little bit of both?
For all those “inquiring minds,” who want to know–check out what is required in creating musical talent in kids: link in bio

HOW ACOUSTICALLY FILTERED CLASSICAL MUSIC HELPS KI

HOW ACOUSTICALLY FILTERED CLASSICAL MUSIC HELPS KIDS WITH AUDITORY PROCESSING ISSUES Alene Villaneda, an educational therapist and owner of Integrated Learning Strategies has found that sound therapy helps children with learning issues. Since 1994, she has worked with children who have a variety of learning disabilities including auditory processing, ADD/ADHD, dyslexia, sensory processing disorders, speech and language issues and autism.
One of the programs she uses to help these children is acoustical filtered classical music. Many people find it odd that listening to specific pieces of acoustically filtered classical music can affect the inner ear and auditory areas of the brain—but it can and does!
Check out the work that Alene does here: link in bio

HOW LEARNING CERTAIN INSTRUMENTS HELPS LEARNING DI

HOW LEARNING CERTAIN INSTRUMENTS HELPS LEARNING DISABLED CHILDREN If you have a learning-disabled child and want her/him to have a brain workout—enroll them in music lessons. Wondering what music instruments work best?
Well, brass instruments tend to be a good choice for a child who struggles with learning—these instruments do not use as many fingers as most instruments. Voice is another good choice! Did you know that the human voice is the first instrument available? And everyone carries this instrument around with them! Voice lessons will strengthen the auditory cortex as a child learns to sing on pitch. Think of it as aerobics for the brain! And there are other instruments that are perfect for the learning-disabled child—check out the details here: link in bio

MUSIC: THE ANSWER TO MANY LEARNING DISABILITIES!

MUSIC: THE ANSWER TO MANY LEARNING DISABILITIES!
More and more, scientists are realizing the importance music plays in building and strengthening the brain. Believe it or not—the studies go back to the 1800s!
In the early 1960s, a medical doctor discovered that listening to certain pieces of classical music changed the way the brain processes information. Other doctors throughout the world begin testing his theories and discoveries and found the same results.
This breakthrough paved the way for acoustical filtered classical music that works to strengthen the auditory cortex—the seat of learning problems.
Discover how this filtered classical music helps kids challenged by auditory processing issues and other learning challenges: link in bio

LEARNING DISABILITIES ARE ON THE RISE: HERE’S HO

LEARNING DISABILITIES ARE ON THE RISE: HERE’S HOW MUSIC CAN HELP!
Not only are learning disabilities on the rise—they are complex. Why? Because they involve layers of problems. And all learning disabilities affect a child’s ability to learn. Some kids suffer from auditory processing, visual motor, visual processing, Attention Deficit Disorder (ADHD), sensory integration (SI), language delays, and more.
Most learning disabilities start with auditory processing and can affect language, spelling, writing, and reading.
What helps? MUSIC (of course)! Music exercises and strengthens the auditory cortex as nothing else can. Check out all the different ways music strengthens the auditory cortex and improves a child’s ability to read, listen, learn & more: link in bio

MUSIC ENHANCES LISTENING SKILLS & MORE. Did you k

MUSIC ENHANCES LISTENING SKILLS & MORE.
Did you know that one of the areas of the brain that is strengthened when a child learns to play a musical instrument is the AUDITORY CORTEX?
This is the area that helps a child learn to read, write, spell, listen in school and at home and pay attention in class. And if a child has a learning disability—one of the first areas affected is the auditory cortex; causing auditory processing problems.

MUSIC MAKES KIDS SMARTER…COMMON CORE MAKES KIDS

MUSIC MAKES KIDS SMARTER…COMMON CORE MAKES KIDS DUMBER Have you read the latest reports on Common Core? It’s not good (surprise, surprise). The class or 2019, the first to experience all 4 high school years under Common Core is the worst-prepared for college in 15 years.
It gets better.
On the same day that the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) released their dismal results on Common Core, the college testing organization, ACT released a report showing that the scores for English and math of the high school class of 2019 are at the lowest levels in 15 years.
When will the decision-makers of educational standards ever learn? These people do not understand neuroscience and until they start understanding how the brain works and how children learn—we will continue to get programs that dumb-down our children and grandchildren!
You MUST read my blog! I’ve listed 12 studies (all bonified and reliable) about how music INCREASES learning, math, standardized test scores such as ACT and SAT. How kids do better in math, reading, problem-solving and more. How music strengthens, builds and exercises the brain for amazing academic success.
If you want more studies—then read my book “Good Music Brighter Children”—it’s filled with studies and reports showing that what we need in our schools AND at home is MUSIC—comprehensive, sequential music programs. Then watch what test scores do in this nation! Link in bio
