Grammar

concentrate on or at
  

Top answer

If you mean "concentrate one's thoughts or attention on something" (direct one's thoughts or attention to something), then say "concentrate on something". Similarly, we would say "focus on something". In a more literal sense, "concentrate" could also mean to cause people (or things) to gather into a group at a certain place, usually for a specific purpose -- that said, "concentrate + noun + at" might work in such a case.
