                                          Simona Green

                                          Resume

                                          Simona brings to the Kids at the Con program a fresh approach and understanding of the major music and movement teaching methods of the 20th century, including Kodaly, Orff, Laban, and Dalcroze.

                                          Before undertaking solo pre-school classes she worked and trained with Jane Boyd, who founded Bridges to Music after following in the footsteps of the esteemed music educator Dr Doreen Bridges.

                                          Simona has been teaching the Early Childhood program at the Sydney Conservatorium for the last seven years.

                                          Simona grew up in Italy, studying languages, flute and Baroque recorders and has a Bachelor of Music Theory from the Conservatorium Giuseppe Verdi in Turin.
                                          In Australia she has regularly attended Dalcroze Summer Schools and Workshops and believes in the importance of movement as one of the building blocks of early childhood music education.
                                          In addition Simona uses songs, poems, and rhymes for the children to experience pitch, beat, accent, dynamics, and most of all rhythm.
                                          Visual, aural, and action games are used in her classes as well as a full range of percussion instruments. Incentives and encouragement to creative thinking are an essential part of this children’s first musical journey.

                                          In 2019 Simona has completed Songwriting Level 1 and 2 courses at the Conservatorium Open Academy.

                                          Simona is a passionate and dedicated musician and for the past 10 years has been studying the piano focusing on classical music and improvisation.
