Alex Moreira is an amazing instructor! He's super engaging, teaches the content well, and is really good at giving the students a chance to come up with the solutions instead of spoonfeeding us everything. I'll miss him when this camp is over!

The instructor really tries to encourage everyone to participate and takes all ideas/comments and either takes or improves on them. I really appreciate how much he shows that he cares about his students and how they learn, as well as taking everything they say seriously.
