Michael is a brilliant educator that I would and have recommended to anyone who asks me for referrals to an amazing piano teacher. I myself am an elementary school music teacher as well as voice teacher and have been asked for referrals for piano teachers many times through the years. I always refer them to Michael. The students I have referred to have stayed his students for many years and have grown to become amazing and competent musicians themselves. One parent I ran into a few years later thanked me and told me how happy he is, how it transformed his child to have more confidence and a wonderful skill to have and enjoy for life.

Michael, piano teacher extraordinaire, taught our son for 6 years and our daughter for 4. He laid down their music foundation, taught them theory, discipline, exposed them to classical composers and kept them interested by asking what music they liked, were interested in, and expanded their repertoire. He spotlighted their talents in wonderful piano recitals, connected them to the Junior Bach Festival, and Certificate of Merit. Michael is a talented musician, patient teacher, and a wonderful person to work with for many years. When we think of our son or daughter's musical accomplishments, we think of their piano beginnings with Michael, whom we credit for starting them on that path.

When I first met Michael I was first impressed with how enthusiastic he was. My daughter liked him right away. I never had to argue with her about taking piano lessons because Michael made everything interesting and fun for her. His passion for music was evident and contagious.

Michael is the best piano teacher I've ever had. Though I ended up pursuing classical voice rather than piano in the end, I am still grateful for all the lessons and influence Michael had on me when learning discipline, technique and in my opinion, most importantly, musicality. I now have my BM in Voice from Illinois Wesleyan University. Having knowledge of the piano definitely made music theory in music school go more smoothly. One thing I can for certain say about Michael is that he is anything but boring. I've had my share of boring piano teachers throughout my childhood and it made me never want to practice because they never got me enthusiastic about piano. Michael was the opposite. He not only introduced classical works to me, but he also would transpose a song I was listening to at the time for example, into an easier key so I could play at my level. So I really appreciated that. The only reason I quit was so I could focus more on voice. But I cannot recommend Michael enough if piano is your passion.
