Very knowledgeable of language and culture. Always willing to slow down and explain if necessary. Funny dude too, really keeps the class engaged.  The GOAT",

It's a language class, so there is an obvious out of class obligation, but if you get confused Brad will help no doubt. Can't recommend Brad enough. Makes what could be a miserable slough very fun.",
