Comment:

Class attendance mark, likely no one would show up if there wasnt Incredibly disorganized, he can have his better moments, but often class is much too long on examples w/ limited lecturing. READ THE TEXTBOOK, slides miss key content/mislead and he doesn't teach much.

Comment:

I have him for AT2 and I think hes great! He does mainly homework problems in class with a few textbook notes, so you have to come to class prepared (reading the slides/textbook beforehand). You also do a lot of cases which prepares you for getting your CPA designation. If you can do the assigned homework, you'll do well on the exam

Had for managerial accounting. His lectures are very boring but the content is not that difficult. Midterm and exam are based off slides. He doesn't really seem to care.

Comment:

George is a wonderful human being. I find his lectures to be amazing even though I don't necessarily know what he's saying at times. LOTS OF EXAMPLES. He has some hilarious lecture habits, like randomly writing on the board and leaving the class. Have him next semester and I'm pumped to take another George course , highly recommend!

Comment:

I had to take him for Intro to Acctg Theory as he was the only instructor. If you can take it with someone else, do so for your own good. He is very knowledgeable, up to date on accounting news, but not a good teacher, not for this class at least. Does not know how to explain clearly or even answer questions, just puts confusing stuff on the board.

Comment:

Lan is one of the worst profs ive ever had, you cant understand him because me mumbles. Ive went to his office for help but its the most useless thing ever, he expects you to know everything. And his midterm is so random for an accounting course. Doesn't prepare you for his exam, and doesnt tell you the make up for it. Avoid if you could

Comment:

Dr. Lan introduces a lot of case writing in his class which I found very useful while studying for the school of accountancy and UFE. The textbook is very theoretical and there is a lot of finance/accounting overlap.

Comment:

This guy is not a very good prof. He often just does a problem on the board with little to no explanation. He marks hard and is a little difficult to understand. Not to mention very poor handwriting.

Georgy is a pretty good teacher even though he is unorganize at times. The material for Adv. Acct II sux big time and that's why I think some people think he's bad... Just because the material is bad doesn't make the prof. bad.
