  • Teaching others helps you learn
​James was great! Very friendly and enthusiastic, corrected anything we were doing wrong and made us feel comfortable to ask questions. Very thorough. I thought a 2.5 hour class would get boring but he kept us engaged the whole time. Highly recommend taking James' class!
