Our students with autism
Since 1998, Musik Mogul and its director, Prof. Jadnel Rosario, have been proud to support the autism community.
We recognize that individuals with autism have immense potential when guided in the right environment. Music is a powerful tool that engages the brain, providing benefits that are not only psychological and physical, but also educational. Through music, individuals gain opportunities for future professional and occupational growth, helping them reach their full potential.

our special methodology
When we talk about autism, it’s often seen as a condition with many challenges.
Since 1998, Prof. Jadnel Rosario has recognized that individuals with autism have so much to offer society. By moving beyond social stigmas, we see that each person on the spectrum carries a unique “superpower” waiting to be discovered.
The first step is to focus on potential rather than limitations. While it’s true that autism can present challenges, the real goal is to uncover each individual’s strengths — whether it’s a perfect ear for music, a passion for deep sound, a unique form of communication through an instrument, or a way to nourish the mind through musical notes. Musik Mogul is dedicated to helping every student find and develop their extraordinary abilities.
Each musical instrument presents a different level of difficulty.
Before starting lessons with any student—whether a child, teen, or adult—we conduct a psychomusical assessment to determine the best approach. The results of this test help us identify which instrument would be the ideal starting point for the student to achieve success and progress as quickly as possible.
In this process, the most important goal is not simply playing the instrument. It’s about discovering the student’s abilities, developing them, and helping the student see tangible results. This builds self-esteem and fosters a love for their instrument, creating a true passion. Once this happens—BINGO—autism is no longer a limitation.
Choosing the right teacher is critical. Unlike neurotypical students, individuals with autism who receive improper guidance may struggle to overcome mistakes or gaps in learning later.
Our teaching process focuses on building a strong musical foundation:
-
Students develop auditory skills to recognize musical notes and cultivate perfect and relative pitch.
-
Using color-coded methods, students learn the mechanical aspects of music reading and rhythm.
-
They establish auditory patterns by connecting musical symbols with the sounds of notes.
Instrument instruction is tailored based on the student’s position on the spectrum. We start with the easiest techniques—pressing, strumming, or blowing the first notes—to familiarize the student with their instrument. Our curriculum features unique melodies that create new auditory connections, ensuring students aren’t confined to a single genre but learn to value all types of music, from classical to popular.
Over time, students master concepts such as chords, melodies, harmonies, intonation, melodic dictation, rhythmic dictation, and many other skills. Each student is unique, and our role is to guide them within their individual world, helping them achieve results that demonstrate the perfection of their personal musical universe.
