About Natalia

I started my journey with teaching as a teenager. I graduated from the State Music School in Poland with a Diploma in Music, specializing in piano, viola, and eurythmics. I have been trained to teach music in the methods of Emile Jacques-Dalcroze and Carl Orff, as well as the music learning theory of Edwin Gordon. From childhood on, I have been constantly involved in concerts, events, competitions, exhibitions, theatre, music, dance, and writing.

During my training at Music School, I performed at many concerts and won competitions with The Symphonic Orchestra in countries all around the world such as Saudi Arabia, the Czech Republic, and Cyprus.

I have accomplished a variety of music courses specialized in viola and eurythmics for children and recorded educational songs for youth. I am an active music composer for short movies, videos, and games, filmmaker, and screenwriter.

Along with piano, I teach music theory using various methods, I mainly deploy a kinaesthetic approach, teaching through touch, sound, and movement, especially body language. Through the years, I have been observing that adding elements of body movement to my teaching, makes people understand, memorize and feel music easier and quicker.

I teach piano in Bristol and Cardiff, however since the pandemic I have started giving lessons online.

About the lesson

Teaching piano is a powerful therapy that helps with mental health. I cherish my profession not only for its creative nature and for sharing my skills with people but primarily for helping everyone find their solitude and emotional balance.

I am a fan of using music games in my teaching based on rhythm and aural exercises, as well as piano improvisation. I focus on helping people find their confidence, passion, and joy from play. My method of teaching is based on using creativity and a unique approach to every single person. No matter your goal – if you’re looking to master a song or develop the level of your play, I am here to help you with finding your own way of improving and gaining your skills.

Due to the variety of ages, levels, and goals I teach, I use different methods for each particular group of students:

Children: I present the world of music from a beginner level, using methods I’ve created through years of teaching which simplify challenging terms and rules. It provides a stable base for experimentation, creativity, and improvisation, all of which make lessons exciting and awaited.
New materials and terms worked through the lesson are delivered to children through music games, making it easier to memorize and simply enjoy.

Students: With intermediate and advanced students I focus more on the mental approach to learning piano. We strongly establish goals and approaches from the start, and I also help with improving technique, music interpretation, awareness of play, and music theory.
I work more on the psychology of your play to prepare you for meeting greater demands. Through doing so, you learn how to stay passionate about the piano and are ready for every challenge that the future beholds.

Adults: I strongly believe everyone should experience both classical music, restrained by rules and patterns, and the creative freedom of music – endless and never fully explored. Once we’ve gone through this process, together we set a course for what you like the most and want to explore further in your piano journey. My method here is based on deep exploration and making sure students experience and become aware of all music prospects. I help you to set the direction you would like to go and start preparing you for this journey.

Outside of these categories, I can assist in reestablishing a previous knowledge and love of piano, if you’re out of practice or your skills need polishing, I’m happy to assist a reintroduction and a revival of your passion.

I contacted Natalia last year and piano lessons with her have been my first experience with any musical instrument.
Natalia has proven to be very skilled and flexible teacher, insitinctivelly being able to find the right words (hit the right note so to speak) in her tutoring style to me, so I can learn a whole new language of music by skillful metaphores (when teaching me notes) rhytm exercises (to help my brain feel the music) which altogether has made the actual piano playing exercises much more effective and fun.
It has actually felt more like a musical spa welness sessions rather than lessons, absolutely mind blowing.

Natalia has really helped me grow and develop, both in terms of my skills with piano and my confidence in general. I had lessons with a couple other tutors before I found Natalia; the first person was a bit to straightforward and critical and I lost interest in piano for a while, the second was much better but I couldn't afford them at the time. When I finally found Natalia I new she'd be the one to hone my skills from the first lesson.

Natalias approach is unlike the other tutors I had and I would say she's certainly different and very engaging. The way she taught me was very creative and understanding, and we worked as much on my self tackling any task in general as much as we did my piano playing. This was a great approach, and I thoroughly enjoyed having her as a teacher. Since then I've come so far with my piano playing and really enjoy it whenever I'm able to find time. We still have occasional lessons and it's always so nice to see her when we do.

I would highly recommend her to anyone thinking of picking up the piano, if you've never played before, have a little but not for a long time, or already can play well but want to learn how to be more free thinking and able to improvise rather than a more traditional "stiff" approach.
