Boot Camp last week was incredible, as I knew it would be. After taking training from you previously, I expected that going through Boot Camp here at Carolina wouldn't disappoint - and I was right. While some of the material last week overlapped what I learned from you in January, you managed to present it in a slightly different way, geared towards our class. I think that's one of the things I appreciate most about you as a teacher: that you are able to gear the class and your knowledge to the audience you're addressing. As you know, it's one thing to be an expert in your field; it's another to have the ability to teach that knowledge to others.

Your knowledge about Plone and Zope is obvious and incredibly impressive - and I'm sure I don't even know the half of it. But even more impressive to me is your teaching style; you are the best teacher of a technical subject that I've ever had in my career.

I'm not sure how you seem to be so well prepared for class each day, but I have a hunch that it just comes naturally to you.

Anyway, I truly hope that I have the opportunity to take more classes from you in the future, be it advanced Plone development or advanced basket weaving.
