Online Drum Set Lessons for Students with Autism

By combing simple phonics with a multi-sensory approach, autistic students learn to play basic grooves and interesting rhythms. (the methodology is also effective with not yet verbal students too) The lessons are super engaging and fun, and have a positive spillover into areas of cognitive and social development. Your autistic child will really learn to rock.

Online Percussion Lessons for Students with Autism

Online lessons for Autistic students anywhere in the world. The online lessons use rhythms to teach positive communication, social skills, and academic concepts. This is no ordinary music therapy protocol: it’s a learning environment that engages students through the power of music. The lessons are successful in addressing COGNITIVE, EMOTIONAL, and PHYSICAL goals. Through inventive multi- sensory exercises, the sessions teach and enhance skills such as maintaining focus, using memory, sequencing, sign language, laterality, recognition and use of numbers, shapes and colors, spatial awareness, fine and gross motor coordination, following instructions, and communication. Through a perceptual motor match: VISUAL, TACTILE and AUDITORY combined with SPEECH, the student sees the lesson, feels it, and then hears it as he/she speaks or sings the answers. It is this redundancy of information that facilitates positive results. The only equipment necessary is a small hand drum and a computer or iPad with Skype or Zoom.
