I wish he hadn't worked us harder than other classes. I wish I learned as much in other classes as in his class. He made us think.

Misey is an interesting combo. He is an international tax lawyer. Very intimidating at times. Also funny and gives good real-life stories. He writes your book for international tax. 8 weekly quizzes that are subjective. Two exams. Cold calls on you for a while in class. Misey does some kind things for the class, like buying coffee for everyone
