Great class! The lecturer was so descriptive...to detail...and at the same time so relaxed and funny. I loved him and understood better things that i' ve heard before, but never cared that much to paid attention to...!

Excellent! I will never look at typeface and daily examples of typography design the same way again! Brilliant teacher who animates the 'deliciousness of an optimal text setting experience' in such a hilarious and engaging manner.
