Ryne has been my favorite ASL instructor yet! He thoroughly goes through each lesson, responds to emails quickly and is available/provides extra tutoring and help with the material. He genuinely wants all his students to succeed and it shows in his teaching!

Ryne is absolutely amazing. I first had him as an instructor for ASL 2, and since Ive done everything in my power to have him as an instructor again. Hes incredibly patient and kind. He genuinely wants his students to learn, so he always makes sure that the class understands the content. Hes a fair grader as well. 10/10 would recommend

Ryne is the only teacher I have ever liked at UWM, but that doesn't mean this class was easy. You HAVE to go to class to be there for the "lecture" portion to understand ASL structure. He is also a TOUGH grader, making it hard to get by on basic ASL knowledge and understanding. There are MANY group projects, so be aware. Nonetheless, I love him!

Ryne was a wonderful professor! He made our ~3 hour long class really interesting and engaging. There is a group project that is a bit difficult where you're paired with random classmates so be prepared for that. Tests and the final can be a bit stressful with time constraints but he seems to be nice and generous with grading. He's also very funny!

I actually had Ryne for ASL 1 when a professor had to take a leave at UWM. I wish he taught ASL 2, I would defiantly be taking his class. He wad so kind and welcoming. UWM is lucky to have him teaching ASL!

I learned so much from Ryne. He really takes the time to make sure everyone is understanding the material. He is so understanding with things as long as you communicate with him. He makes the language so enjoyable to learn. One of my favorite professors at UWM!!

Ryne made it a very enjoyable experience to learn sign language in class. We could learn the language and incorporate our own conversations for practice. He is super understanding and accepting of all of his students. He's a great teacher!
