Comment:

Rob is like a woman on her period he changes moods faster than girls change clothes. He docked people 50% of their grade for posting their assignment in the wrong file submission. He is really unfair with the way he grades and please don't attempt to argue your point because he'll tell you to take it to grade appeal. If you can, SWITCH!!!!!!!

Rob is great! He knows what he is talking about and he puts things in words so you understand which is helpful in accounting! He has a great way of teaching and bases some of the schedule based on student input which is awesome. He really does care about his students

Comment:

This course is based on software, however, he didn't explain too much for the instruction. it makes me so hard to understand the software. Finally I have to drop this course. I was so sad. I have two courses were taught by him, I passed only one of them at a low marks.

Comment:

I even cannot understand his lecture because he always put lots of emphasises on his jokes rather than the course content. Thats why I felt this course is so hard. I am coming for learning knowledge, not for the jokes he told.

Comment:

I Mostly had an issue with his personality and teaching style. He has an aggressive, my way or the high way attitude. His lectures are long, boring, and he has a habit of getting off topic quite frequently. He is extremely critical of inconsequential mistakes made and can be extremely demeaning and condescending at times. Would not recommend

Comment:

Harvey knows his stuff because he's been teaching for a long time. He can be funny at times but also easily gets angry - the type of anger that is WAY too unnecessary! He needs anger management!! DISAPPOINTING!!! Still, students either love him or hate him. There should be another Managerial Accounting teacher, so that students can have a choice.

Comment:

Honestly. He is a very good teacher but he has his rules. Follow his rules & you will do fine but break them even the slightest & you will regret it. He does not deduct marks because he is mean but because he tries to get sure you are ready for the real world. Have to respect him for it & dislike it at the same time. He was my favorite teacher.

he's a good prof because he teaches well + he's clear/concise. however, his attitude/personality is quite... aggressive. he's always angry LOL. if you do something stupid deemed by him in class he'll call you out and yell at you so beware. otherwise, hes a fair marker. also - he doesn't round up grades. :^(

Comment:

He knows his material very well. But his temper is terrible and can actually be scary. He has very little patience and makes it so that you don't want to ask questions because he may make a fool of you in front of the class. Have felt uncomfortable in all of his classes so far...

Comment:

One thing I would like to say is this professor is sometimes kinda RACIST. In an exam I asked him a question, he rolled his eyes and made faces while answering me. On the other hand when WHITE students were asking him questions he was being very polite and friendly. This broke my heart. Let me tell you, I am a good student.

Comment:

Lectures are engaging, his knowledge outstanding, great sense of humour, real character and he's an innovator for teaching style. You'll actually learn, understand and remember. One of the best teachers you'll have as long as you're motivated and do the following: 1) Go to class 2) Do all assigned readings and homework 3) Work hard in-class

Be prepared for class because he will not go over something twice. He does not do much lectures just problems which he rushes through them because he expects you to know the stuff ahead of time. his comments can be offending and sometimes funny. I dropped his class due to his negative attitude. no motivation. He knew his material though.

It is a difficult class you need to attend all the classes. Do the demo cases and pay attention. On how to fill out the profile tax software properly. Since it is 50% of the midterm, and 80% of the final exam.

Comment:

As long as you show up to his classes and actually listen you can pretty much pass anything he throws at you. Be sure to read the sections for the quizzes!!! He provides you the opportunity to get easy marks and it's your own fault if you don't take advantage of it.

Comment:

Great teacher. Very clear about his expectations. He expects you to read BEFORE class and do the work assigned. If you have problems, go to his office hours, he's willing to help people who are willing to work. Give the impression of being gruff, but really a great guy.
