Adam is extremely friendly and patient, and even when I had to ask basic questions, I felt comfortable doing so. He makes it easy to say, "I don't get it," without feeling dumb. As a fairly casual player who wants to get better, I appreciate Adam's knowledge, patience, and personality. It makes learning more fun.
