This was my third class with Paul Wright and I would take another without question. He is attentive with his timely feedback and specific comments meant to encourage self reflection. He also organized the material in such a way that I didn't have time to be defensive of my previous practices, but instead was constantly thinking about how I can evolve my teaching.
