Here's what my students said about their experience working with me:

"Willing to both teach and learn with a very positive and infectious energy and is always enthusiastic."

"Ezra is the glue holding the class together, I think. If we stay late, he stays late, and it seems like he wants us to "get it" as much as we want to "get it.""

"His excitement for what he does is clear. His code along sessions are fantastic and entertaining. He inspires me to work hard and achieve what I am capable of doing and pushing myself harder."

"He sometimes appears almost divinely inspired and a force of nature. His always-expanding set of skills motivates me to have a passion for this when my energy is flagging. He's an unbelievably nice and genuine person. It's as if he has an inexhaustible supply of energy to help other people become better."
