I took this class having so-so feelings about my previous Latin TAs but Jason is really fantastic. He makes every class engaging and has a lot of supplementary knowledge that is a bit much at times but neat. Also, extra credit saved my life. It's a fair amount, and mostly supplements learning. Few quizzes and he gives you lots of prep material.

He was a great instructor. He gave background on the language that made it much more interesting to learn, he was enthusiastic about learning, he was extremely caring and understanding, and he was very knowledgeable and approachable. I'd definitely take another class with him.

Jason works hard to make sure his students have all the resources they need. By far my favorite class this semester. Thanks Jason :)

He's really knowledgeable and patient, and never runs out of lame history jokes. You can tell he really cares about his students, and goes above and beyond for them. The class structure and expectations were very straightforward and doable. If you get a chance to have Jason as your TA, take that chance!
