Educators recommend private lessons in addition to school band and orchestra rehearsals. Students advance more quickly and learn new skills by studying one on one with a private instructor. Plus, studies show that musical training improves math and reading skills, and results in higher S.A.T. scores. Other benefits include improved discipline, social skills, teamwork and self-confidence.
