Eno Tõnisson devoted much of his life to teaching, doing so with enchanting passion, inspiring so many learners. Eno was repeatedly chosen as the best lecturer at both, the Institute of Computer Science and the University at large. He received a number of prizes for his excellent work, for example, he was awarded a substantial teaching grant at the university in 2015, a badge of honour at the University of Tartu in 2016, and, in the same year, the Ministry of Education and Research awarded him with the title of the Lecturer of the Year.

Eno was a much liked figure at the University, and  also with the broader public and in 2016, he and his colleagues began organising programming courses over web that became hugely popular with the  thousands of people who participated over the years. The course “Basics of Programming,” which was the first open e-course with free access (MOOC) to the University of Tartu to be taught in Estonian, received the Estonian e-University Consortium's annual e-course award in 2016.
