Reviews
Schaefer is a very skilled educator and he is very qualified to teach the sensitive 310W. Schaefer's 310 included a good coverage of foundational topics. The class is very difficult, that's just the nature of it. Schaefer doesn't seem to hold punches but still gives exceptional lectures and is very accessible and helpful outside of class.
