Tom is a gem at Emerson College. I learned to be a better director from him, absolutely. His feedback and attention to detail is much appreciated. The top of the top.

One of the best teachers at Emerson. He makes it clear for those without much experience and still fun for those with experience. He makes you want to come to class.

Extremely knowledgable, has tons of experience in the field, and is quite possibly the most helpful and friendly man in the VMA department. He demands professionalism and quality, but in the end you'll only thank him for it.

One of the best professors I had at Emerson - if not the best in the TV/Video Dept. Great knowledge and a great attitude. Had him for Intro to Field Production and Topics in Video Directing. Take his class and you'll actually learn.

Easy course if you have experience. Otherwise he will teach you everything you need to learn. Good class for beginners....If you're in FPS or EIV you will breeze through.

Maybe it's because I had his class in the morning, but wasn't stimulated by his course. I found him to lack any sense of humor, and while he is very knowledgeable, my passion for production feels dulled.
