Best Professors

We spend a lot of time rubbishing our professors on this forum. Let's have a topic dedicated to those of the teaching profession who possess the ability to effortlessly transfer knowledge from them to us. One of my favorite is Stephen B. Smith of Yale University. His lectures on Political Philosophy are truly exceptional from his voice to the way explain theory of politics.

Looking forward to see some responses.

Nope, went to UC. My professor was a rambler so I went to Stephen B Smith to actually understand the thing. Thanks for the correction my lord

The best professor I've had is the Universe. When I communicate to the Universe that I seek knowledge, the Universe obliges.

 
"Na'Daz" For me, it was Aswath Damodaran, he's a professor of finance at NYU. He helped me understand valuation more intuitively than the guides out there.

Also he's down to earth and doesn't speak in the typical finance jargon. I actually brought him in an interview and it went great.

Huh. You brought a famous professor with you to an interview? Explain.
