SONGWRITING

The songwriting section of our portal inspires participants to tap into creativity with words, stories, sounds, and rhythm, promoting self-expression and self-development.

This area of our portal is designed to encourage participants to apply their newfound skills after progressing through our rhythm, guitar, or piano modules and participating in live jam sessions, further enhancing independence and confidence.

The excitement and experience of songwriting often inspire participants to engage in new community, social, and recreational activities such as forming bands, recording and releasing music, creating music events, various other music and sound healing projects, and sharing their creations with the world.

Participants frequently find themselves setting new goals throughout our programs.

Each milestone, no matter how small, is celebrated, bolstering confidence and self-belief while ensuring every participant enjoys their journey.

Customer Reviews

Learning with Jay and the Australian School of Music for Autism and Special Interest Learning has been an absolute game-changer for my children's musical growth, self-development, and self-confidence.

I cannot express how grateful I am for the incredible impact these online courses have had on my kids.

After the courses, they both went on to one-on-one teachers, whom they love and will continue with for many years to come.

Jay's commitment to his students is unparalleled. He consistently goes above and beyond to ensure that my kids feel they are in a safe and trustable environment to thrive.

His ability to provide constructive feedback while nurturing their creativity and unique gifts has been instrumental.

These courses are incredible!

The encouragement and support provided in each course instilled a newfound sense of confidence and self-belief that went on to shape many area's of my child's journey.

The lessons are always so much fun. Each lesson in taught with a gentle, nurturing energy, filled with inspiration, accountability and rewards for perseverance.

The way Jay and Autism Music Australia created these courses to embrace each child's unique skill sets no matter where they are at is like nothing I have ever seen.

My child loves the weekly online group jam sessions with Jay; they are the highlight of his week.

He says: "I always learn heaps and have an awesome time with all the other kids. We do something new each week, and I hear and play music I have never heard before. Jay is the best teacher in the world! When I grow up, I want to be like him."

If all your child ever does musically is a few of these lessons and follow's along with what is shared, they will get really good really quickly.

The courses are incredible, and these weekly live session keep my kids extra motivated to play music each week and continue with their musical growth.

Sometimes, they play drums or pots and pans, sometimes they play guitar or piano, it just depends how they feel.

They love that they get to choose their instruments each week just play.

And best of all, I get 45 minutes to myself whilst the kids are being looked after, best baby sitter ever!

Thank you Jay and team, you guys are all incredible teachers and so kind and supportive with my kids.

Eternally grateful.
