Comment:

Primus knows his colors and adobe Illustrator. He works with the students and he will challenge you to be sure that you are giving your best--all the time! He pays attention to each student and works on them to improve their overall skills. I honestly did not like this class when I first started, but I changed my mind one-third way through.

Comment:

He is the rudest teacher I have ever had. He is completely useless. He only cares about him and not the students. He doesn't have a clue what he is talking about. His class is a huge waste of time and money.

Comment:

He's a nice teacher and he really cares for his students. In fact he establishes a relationship on a first name basis. However, he is very hard on them. He's okay if you like to be challenged.

Comment:

He's out of date when it comes to software, but it's not a huge deal because he doesn't teach any of the super advanced 3D courses that require an intimate knowledge of the program. We're talking Photoshop, Illustrator, and Premiere. Primus cares about your development, and he knows how to help you make your work look good.

Comment:

Primus has a different style of teaching, the most important attribute of him is that he cares about you as a student and later on as a professional. His favorite saying is answers are no good. Its the question that gets me thinking. He teaches his class this way and thats why he focuses on the problems in peoples work and not the good.

Primus rocks my socks! We had some probs at first, but he came to me and we worked them out. He's a first class guy and has been there to help anytime I needed it. He's a great friend to have.

Comment:

Primus is by far the best teacher I've had so far in my college career. Don't be fooled - a lot of people didn't like him when he first showed up and they smeared him on here without taking his classes. He's a great guy--I would have flunked out of school if not for his assistance. I've got him again this semester for Motion Tools III.

Primus comes off as a strict teacher at first, but is really a nice guy. All he wants is for you to get your work done. Don't worry about quailty at first as much as getting it done and turning it in. He is very helpful and will be glad to help if you ask. Sleepless nights, some nights, but it is a sacrifice you have to make. YOU CAN DO IT!

Comment:

Primus would be a good teacher if he'd give you feedback in a constructive manner rather than a condemning destructive manner. Seems like he only focuses on flaws. He needs to seriously think about if he's a true teacher or just another guy being arrogant to everyone because he thinks he knows more. I don't need to be babied, just taught.

Primus can come off as being intimidating, but his energy and teaching style comes from actually *caring* about the students. I've never met a more helpful teacher in the DIGM dept and one that showed so much care into you graduating.

Primus is a good guy and would do anything to help you out. If you donâ€™t like his classes itâ€™s probably because you are too lazy to take on initiative. He isnâ€™t going to hold your hand. If you want to create crap its your own portfolio. But if you help yourself Primus will help you right back.

I have had Primus for several classes. Really nice guy and is a lot of fun. Will not go out of his way for students but will meet them half way. Lazy people would probably not like him.
