The kinda guy in a bar you wouldn't go up to and say "how you doin?" He makes you work to understand the material and when it comes to reading the book, well lets just say that dog wont hunt. Overall Good teacher and he has more interesting sayins than an episode of Dragonball Z. Top notch work johnny boy
