As we all know, playing the piano, or any instrument comes with many benefits. It can help you improve your musical talent and knowledge, it will help you in your social life by getting you involved, providing different opportunities, and connecting with others who play the same instrument, plus so many more positive effects of playing an instrument, like the piano. But can the piano really make you smarter?

The simple answer is yes, taking piano lessons does make you smarter and improve brain functions. Playing the piano works out parts of the brain that are useful in subjects like math and science, spatial intelligence, and other cognitive functions. Because playing the piano requires you to use both hands at the same time playing different scales and keys, it also improves your hand-eye coordination, this, in turn, improves your performance in sports like tennis or baseball and even at school in gym class. Taking a weekly piano lesson uses both sides of your brain. The left brain, which is responsible for logic, reasoning and understanding math and science, controls the right side of your body, and the right brain, which is responsible for activities that include the arts and that brings out your creative side, controls the left side of the body. Playing the piano requires both sides of your brain to work at the same time, which exercises them and makes them stronger. Giving both sides of your brain a nice workout has many benefits of its own including, improved memory, better attention span, increased concentration, improved hearing and understanding of auditory signals, and the obvious positive effects like improvement in logic related subjects and becoming more creative and imaginative. Playing the piano provides all of these benefits. Scientific studies and research show that playing musical instruments, like the piano, can even have a positive impact on your IQ. Studies that have been done throughout the years show that after about a year of weekly piano lessons and practicing, on average, children’s IQ went up about 4.3 points. There is scientific proof that playing the piano can actually make you smarter. Improving your IQ also comes with many benefits within itself, including a better performance at school in all subjects ranging from science and math, to subjects like history, reading comprehension and language arts. So, taking piano lessons and mastering how to play the instrument, can make you smarter. By exercising the left and right side of your brain, improving important and useful skills used in academics and even upping your IQ points by a few, taking playing the piano can truly make you smarter and also has many other benefits that can improve your life.

Other benefits of taking piano lessons include:
