Homework is difficult! Studying is hard! We get it. We all know how challenging it is to hold concentration while trying to complete assignments. The right kind of music can help you  concentrate! Background music has helped me complete assignments over the last 5 years at Whitney Young. 

Fellow students from Whitney Young also comment on how music helps in their studies:

“Background music really helps my brain focus on the material that I am trying to study and it makes my work less boring, especially when I am doing homework for hours on end.”- Paige Smorynski ‘21

“Calming music really helps me study, when it’s not playing too loud. I especially like low fi and jazz music because they are really soothing and mellow so it helps with my stress levels.” – Gigi Cumpian ‘23

“Listening to music while I work actually does help me! I like to listen to like bedroom pop, classical or white noise mix!” – Stanley Cannon ‘22

Check out this playlist made just for  long hours of homework and studying, as well as working on your college apps! Lucky for you we made it just in time for the back to school season! Spotify has many playlists available, however we have made one for studying that any Whitney Young student can add to.
