I always knew our children would take music lessons one day. Not only did I think it would be awesome for them to learn to play an instrument, but he extra benefits that come from lessons are amazing. Learning music can strengthen parts of the brain used for language development and spatial reasoning, thus helping the ability to process language and learn important math skills. Students, also, learn discipline from the practice schedule and some studies have found a light increase in IQ scores after students participate in music lessons.
When the time came for the kids to actually take lessons, the hard part was finding an instructor. I finally found a great piano teacher for the kids, but it took some searching and some interviewing. It would have been so much easier if I had a list of music instructors and tutors to choose from that had already been checked out and screened. Something like……TakeLessons.com.
