About Michael
Growing up, I played a lot of music. When I wasn’t playing piano and clarinet in orchestras and ensembles, I’d be writing down my favorite songs and adapting them for piano or my school band.
I graduated from UC Berkeley with a degree in Cognitive Science, so I like to figure out how people learn. To me, every new student is a challenge, and an opportunity to refine my method.

I want to help you be a better musician. I can give you the tools to analyze the music you like, and to translate your musical ideas from your head to your instrument.
I believe good musicianship starts with having a solid grasp of the fundamentals of music: melody, harmony, and rhythm.
If these concepts scare you, don’t worry. We’ll start at your level.
“But wait!” you might ask. “Can’t I learn this all on Youtube?”
Have you ever watched a Youtube lesson, and then the next day, retained almost nothing? Videos are great resources, but ultimately skill is learned through engagement. That’s where I can help.
I want to offer you a framework that helps keep you engaged with music theory:
1. A method that builds on itself to reinforce the skills and ideas you’ve already learned
2. Personalized challenges: as you improve, I’ll teach you concepts and assign you exercises catered to your level. I want you to be challenged but not defeated.
3. A chance to make your own connections: when introducing new material, I’ll encourage you to make connections to music you like. When you’re engaged on a personal level, learning becomes discovering your taste.
Learning these skills takes a lot of practice. No musician has ever learned to play without drill. That’s where I come in. My job is to make the drill as engaging and effective as possible. So join me in leveling up your musical ear!

If you’re looking to embark on a music journey that is both enriching and rewarding, Michael is the mentor you need by your side. Michael understands the path to musical proficiency begins with a strong foundation in fundamentals. What sets him apart is his ability to make concepts accessible and approachable when things might get intimidating. He’s a kind and generous person who will make you feel supported along the musical path you choose to take. I’m sure you will realize you’re in good hands as you find yourself engaged and wanting to learn more about music!
I have been patiently instructed by Michael for many years. He is VERY smart but keeps things simple and easy to understand. I know he's always focused on having me understand things at the level that is required. Sometimes that means digging into why things need to be understood in a certain way and other times we can skip that. I wish all the teachers I've had in the past took this approach. Highly highly recommended!
Michael is such a patient kind and knowledgeable teacher. I was nervous to learn something new to me but Michael made his lessons approachable and easy to understand. Thank you so much Michael for an amazing class !
