I believe students are unique individuals, each with their own learning style and inherent potentiality. I work with ages six and up, including seniors, and levels beginning through advanced. My approach provides structured lessons with fun, encouraging interaction, and fosters development of fundamental skills: reading, technique, rhythm, scales. I encourage students to find expression and meaning through interpretation, imagination, creativity, and history.

Five great reasons to study music with Michelle:
1. She has taught all ages at the San Francisco Conservatory and was chosen specifically for the preparatory department due to her patience with children.
2. She has taught for 36 years.

I'm a composer primarily working in acoustic chamber music as well as a classical saxophonist.
As a saxophonist, I seek to represent the saxophone as the incredibly expressive and versatile instrument that it is. In my choices in repertoire, I prefer to lean toward 20th and 21st century music, but I am familiar with the standard repertoire for the saxophone and I spent several years playing jazz in combos and big bands.
In my teaching, I first always focus on fundamentals and continually return to those even when working on more advanced musical topics.
