Donar is a extremely talented and kind teacher. Conversations with him are very natural and relaxed ,he always provides feedback and gives a list of all your areas for improvement at the end of the class. He prepared lectures about different topics and give you tasks if you like to do extra lecture for the incoming class.
But he is also very flexible, he constantly ask you what are your expectations, what do you like and he is very good at asking questions and having a friendly conversation.
I totally recommend him as a teacher, one of the best I've had.
