In a nutshell, I was moved by the fact that teacher Jesse is a native English speaker. During the first semester, I struggled to understand what he was saying. However, in the second semester, I fared much better. The handouts were excellently prepared. The teacher taught me a lot of useful information that I can now put to use in practice. I admired his teaching style, openness, and zest for life! Excellent educator!
