the ONLY fingerings that are "the same" on any woodwind instrument (except the bassoon...we won't go there.) are the mainline fingerings (B, A, G, F, E, D, C), and this is in the UPPER register of the clarinet. The same fingering combinations (adding register key on clarinet) produce all these notes on the flute, clarinet, saxophone, and oboe (with one exception: the F fingering gives an F# on the oboe/EH). They all use a fingering system designed by or based on designs by Theobald Boehm. There are some similarities, yes, but in NO way are they identical.
Guess we know why yer violin teacher's a violin teacher and not a clarinet teacher :P
