Hands Down Great Teacher A+
Ray exemplifies the cool cat. He is always patient with our questions, is very clear when he explains something, and he can be hilarious as he lectures, with lots of little funny stories. He gave well beyond 300% when he was sick this term but refused to give in, barreling through the principles of animation in an awe-inspiring display. Overall, Ray has made this first class enjoyable, challenging, and in general makes me not want to move to to another mentor. Hands down great teacher, A+
