In this Halloween Music class, learners will learn to play Twinkle Twinkle Little Star - but Spookily!  While I teach on piano, any instrument is welcome. Perfect for all musicians, neurodiverse learners, ADHD, Autism.  Worksheet Provided.  

*****************

Before taking this mini class, please ensure your learner already knows all the names of the white keys on the keyboard. In addition to the notes ABCDEFG, learners on other instruments should also know Eb and Ab on their instrument.

What you can expect:
- Hellos and getting to know your learner
- Halloween Rhythm / Physical Warm Up
- Learning Spooky Twinkle Twinkle Little Star (demonstration on piano and writing out notes on the worksheet with your 3 different colours)

You will receive a print out before class.  Please print it out for your learner, and if possible, have 3 different markers or crayons ready to fill in the sheet with me.  Using different colours helps students identify patterns and learn pieces more effectively.

Learning Goals

Students will learn how changing certain notes in a piece can give the piece a dramatically different mood.

Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Non-US Teaching Certificate in Music/Theater/Arts
Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from University of Waterloo
Hi, I'm Nefeli!  

I'm a certified Online Music Teacher with with a BA in Psychology and a special interest in music and how we learn.   

I've been teaching piano for over 20 years, as well as tutoring high school math and study skills.  I'm a relationship first teacher which means I take time to get to know my students and find out how they learn and what their strengths and challenges are.  I always focus on strengths first to build confidence and a love of music!

I am neurodiversity affirming which means that no matter your ability or disability, you will have access to high quality music education and that no matter your neurotype, you are welcome to be yourself.  You can stim, you can play with your fidgets or doodle, you can turn off your camera, you can type your answers in the chat if that is your preference.
 
I have a variety of classes to suit your needs, including
- Just Games! (Fun way to reinforce theory)
- Camps
- No practice group classes
- master workshops on various topics (such as emotions and music, performance anxiety, rhythm, composers)
- 1:1 lessons
- 20 minute focussed practice sessions
- and more!

Fun facts about me: 
 1.  I call myself the  Neurodivergent Piano Teacher because it's easier than saying "I'm autistic and have ADHD and bipolar and executive dysfunction and prosopagnosia and aphantasia and anxiety and I teach piano" 😅.  
2. I have been bellydancing for many years and have recently started learning ballet.  While I love middle Eastern music, I have to admit that the piano music during ballet class really makes my soul happy.
