does not give a ounce of thought towards the students and could care less if they pass

3***
Pros: Knows the material, funny guy at times
Cons: Public humiliation whenever someone talks in class, rambles on about unrelated topics, teaches straight from the book so there's no real reason to go to class
Decent teacher, understood that the students had to make the choice whether or not to participate so nothing was forced, but there's no reason to go to class since he teaches STRAIGHT from the book. I made an A and stopped going to class halfway through the semester.

ECON 103
Microeconomic Principles Hnrs
1*
Pros: honestly, ABSOLUTELY NONE
Cons: He is never available to help and he always passes his students off onto tutors that meet at awkward times. He makes it very clear from day 1 that he does not care if you pass or fail and that he doesn't care if you are in class or not. His T.A does all the grading. The tests ridiculously hard and very confusing
I would say avoid his class as much as you can

2**
Pros: The only pro is that sometimes in class he would tell us interesting stories.
Cons: He was very mean, often making fun of students in class. He wasn't interesting and sometimes didn't even teach anything in lectures, he would just read things from the book and do a few examples. Very boring and hard!

4****
Pros: Briefly goes over basically everything that is on the exams. Also emails students specific question topics. Homework is just online quizzes which can easily help raise grades.
Cons: Tests are a little tricky.
He is a nice guy. Just reading the book and going over graphs can help get at least a B.
