Michael was an excellent professor! We gave me alto saxophone lessons and helped me improve a lot in the basics and details. I will definitely choose him as my professor again

Michael is a great teacher. He is very friendly, helpful, and very a patient teacher.
His method of teaching is great because the way he explains things was done very well and simple. The way he teaches is by first showing the foundation/basics and how it applies to the instrument that he is teaching. The way he teaches is great because he will accommodate each lesson to a students needs, and helps guide his students to understand their instrument better.
