He's not winging it. He teaches with energy, humor, and individual attention. He builds goals out of incremental objectives. He gives people reference marks so they can assess themselves, and he's constantly assessing what he just taught. Not something else, determined beforehand, mind you, but what he's just taught. Teachers have silly jargon names for all this and reams of research to read on the subject, but I think Jarrett shows that if you get used to having motivated, receptive students who can afford to go to someone else if you don't deliver, you can become a pretty great teacher without reading "the research."

I saw him shoot at the USPSA South Carolina Regionals earlier this year and he was seriously great. Speed, precision, and a time that was just unreal. I am envious; I would have loved to have spent an afternoon with you guys there. P.S. Shooting steel rules! Jarrett is a great shooter.

Add the bonus of winning a rubber ducky, and the fun factor increases exponentially. Just like a shooting gallery at the old time carnivals.
