What His Students Say:
Hank clearly shows a great mastery of everything we've come in contact with thus far (and if he isn't positive about something, he isn't afraid to table it for later, which is a great trait in an instructor). He also makes our lessons fun, which (again) is very much welcomed considering the difficulty of some of the concepts we've encountered and the pace that we go. Also, maybe most importantly, Hank has shown that he does his absolute best to not leave anyone behind during the lessons. If anyone has a question or is confused, he is more than willing to stop and make sure everyone is comfortable. * -Student from September 2023*
