That would probably be Gilbert Strang.

While, as a maths person I would prefer a bit more rigour, his choice of topics and his teaching skill make his the most outstanding introductory course I have seen.

I would run a mile from any course that disrespects determinants. And that includes Axler's!

Also I wish more Linear Algebra courses would cover Generalized Inverses.
