Introduction
Music is an innately human practice. From the humming the song that is stuck in your head to walk out songs to specific life and cultural moments, such as the quinceanera or weddings, music can serve a variety of purposes. In a recent study, researchers found that over fifty percent of college students’ study and do other classwork while listening to music1. This largely due to music through platforms like Spotify making music much more accessible. Music is a powerful form of self-expression, but can music help you be better at school?
