ART 176
Quality 2/5Difficulty 3/5
He's very knowledgable in photography, but not a good teacher. We didn't receive any grades and minimal feedback on our projects throughout the semester. The only grade we saw was our final grade. He would show up late, couldn't remember some students names, and made it obvious that he favored specific students. Take the class with another teacher.

Quality 5/5Difficulty 3/5
Extremely knowledgeable and a very genuine person. He made the class fun, yet stimulating, especially when understanding the mechanics behind photography. I would recommend him to anyone.
