The thing I liked the most was the fact that even though I thought that I had some experience with linux, there was some simple things that I didn’t know about. And also, I was used to google something when there was a problem, but Luke showed us how to find something without using internet connection.

Brodie was a great tutor that was genuinely interested in the success of all of the students in his class.
