  • Stargazing while
    Chasing Cars
    (featuring ‘Stargazing’ by Myles Smith and ‘Chasing Cars’ by Snow Patrol)


    This is a stand-alone block and is designed for beginners and those with experience. Beginners will focus mainly on learning and playing the right-hand melody. More experienced players will be challenged to develop left-hand accompaniments to make the songs sound fuller and more expressive. Whether you're new to the piano/keyboard or ready to take your playing further, this block will help you build confidence, develop new skills, and play two fantastic songs along the way.

    In this exciting piano/keyboard block, students will learn to play two hugely popular songs: ‘Stargazing’ by Myles Smith and the iconic ‘Chasing Cars’ by Snow Patrol.

    Whether you love powerful pop ballads or simply want to build your keyboard skills, this block is the perfect opportunity to develop your playing while learning music you recognise and enjoy.

    Throughout the block, we’ll explore key musical skills that help bring modern songs to life, including: How to read and play from a lead sheet; how to play chords in their 1st and 2nd inversions and how to use rhythms effectively on the keyboard.

Tutor

Natalie .

Piano Tutor

Hi, I’m Natalie and I am the piano/keyboard teacher for the hub. I am a mum of two and a qualified primary school teacher. I have been playing the piano since I was 6 years old and have been teaching piano for around 24 years- both online and in person. I am also a classically trained singer and was a member of the Cantamus Girls’ Choir for ten years. Pre-Covid, I enjoyed singing to residents in care homes and running my own dementia choir. Music is such a huge part of my life and I am thoroughly enjoying teaching in the hub, where I can share my love of music and enjoy watching children flourish.

“After a year of mostly science and art, my child has recently started Creative Writing class. From the first lesson I was blown away by the quality of the teaching, the standard of work the children were submitting and the supportive environment of the group. The tutor has a fantastic rapport with her students and it is also so nice (and great for their self-confidence) to see the students give each other great feedback and encouragement.”

Louise, parent

“I would like to say a huge Thank you for your incredible service. Such a brilliant concept and as an ex-teacher I'm very impressed with the quality of teaching, resources, well everything really! My 14year old is like a different child nowadays, wish I had deregistered him years ago in hindsight. Thank you!”

Claire, parent

“I just wanted to say thank you so much for all you do at the Hub. It is such a Godsend for us. Our kids are enjoying their lessons, the live interaction with other kids and the lovely, lovely teachers. Where did you find such wonderful, knowledgeable but incredibly patient people?! It’s such a relief our kids can get a tailor made, good quality, British style education even as we live out this slightly crazy life here in the Mexican jungle! Thank you very much to all involved.”

Carolyn, parent

“Very grateful for all your hard work, and thankful for all your help during these 4 years (can't believe it's been so long) - you don't know and I can't express in words how much pressure you take of our shoulders with this amazing palette of classes that you offer.”

Thanks for everything you are doing! ”
