(Analysis H) Mr. Peters is kind of robotic but in an effective and hilarious way. From my experience, he recites his jokes off a script, and goes "Traaaaiiinnn" when a train passes in the most deadpan voice possible to the point that it's hilarious. His class is incredibly consistent; he does his lectures with a perfect balance of simplicity and engagement. Despite his composure, he is still a very approachable and accommodating teacher. You can tell he thoroughly understands the material and is a genuinely smart person. As a current senior, probably the best math teacher I've had at PALY. Analysis in general is a course that's taught very well.
