I loved Jeff & the way he taught this class. Every week you were required to create a score and mp3 of the groove we learned in class. Wasn't awful once you found a system that worked for you. My biggest complaint was with the class itself not giving a lot of freedom to sway from the "traditional" groove and create something new.

Comment:
Not gonna lie, I wasn't a huge fan of Arranging, but Jeff made it tolerable. He's a fair grader in that he grades based on how well you use techniques as opposed to his personal preference. He returns assignments quickly. At least in Arranging 1, he critiques your stuff in front of the class, but he lets you fix things before he grades them.

Jeff really knows his material and teaches it pretty systematically and clearly. As long as you do your work consistently and apply what he teaches, class would be a breeze.

Jeff is the ultimate professor. He is super funny and chilled, yet he gives interesting lectures and also gives a very clear and constructive feedback for every assignment. The more you give to this course, the more you get out of it. Would take again!

Jeff Perry is like a cuddly, kind-hearted, Santa Claus. He's amazing and he will give you good grades as long as you do the work and show up in class. I'm so grateful that I got him for my Arranging 1 class in my first semester.

Jeff is the man! Arranging 1 was definitely my favorite class my first semester at Berklee. He keeps it interesting, and the projects are all really good. Some Arranging professors have really limiting assignments, but with Jeff you can pretty much do whatever you want, which was awesome

Jeff's an excellent teacher. He really knows the material. The great thing about the final test is that you're able to use a cheat sheet. He's extremely helpful outside of class as well. He's the man!
