Student Reviews
“Will is a great teacher he encourages to make mistakes so we learns from them and always comes to class in a great mood. He creates a great environment to express your art and it very positive about everything. he also encourages us to practice and to get better whenever we have time to.”
“Will is a top tier professor and there are very few people like him. I missed A LOT of classes and came back twice asking for his help in order to graduate and he assisted me. Humble, smart, there needs to be more individuals like him in all the departments!”
“Will is an absolutely wonderful teacher who has brought life back into the ceramics department. He cares about his students and truly wants them to succeed and have a good time doing it.”
“Will is an incredible instructor and advisor. He always makes sure you understand the content and helps you if you are struggling. He is constantly encouraging and appraising students to let them know they are doing well. He is very kind and knowledgeable in his field and can always come up with solutions to any problem you throw at him. I could not have gotten through this past year of classes without him. The only weakness he has is that there's only one of him.”
