Comment:

Pretty much everything that you do is take quizzes, there is one pretty much every day but he only kept our top 20 quizzes total. His lectures are good but they tend to get away from the topic. But they usually end up with some funny story mixed into the lecture at some point.

Pros: Don Gustafson has a great enthusiasm for the martial in which he is teaching. He is well rounded in almost anything business management based and can just bounce random questions off him. Cons: I don't prefer the way he gives quizzes but it is fair. I always hate T/F and that is about 50% of each quiz. Overall Great teacher.

Might take some getting used to at first, but overall a funny guy! Knows what he's talking about. Laid back atmosphere in his classroom.

At first I wasn't sure if I liked him, but, by the end of the semester I did. Very easy class, pretty easy going. Tries to keep the class lively and does a lot of group quizzes which are usually an easy 100. Only has two tests, midterm and final. Goes over them with you the class before so you have an idea what to expect. Usually let's out early.

Super cool guy. He makes the most boring material fun. He is full of great stories and jokes a lot. He let's you retake almost everything and if your stuck he will go over everything individually. If you show up you will pass easily.

Mr. Gus is the best. He is one of the best teachers I have taken at Penn College. He is willing to work with you, has a good sense of humor, and is very understanding. He's one of those where if he sees you put forth the effort, he notices. He will help you out whenever and never hesitates to ask for questions. It is easy to see he cares.

Comment:

I am a non-traditional student at Penn College and at first I wasn't sure what to think about Professor Gustafson, but as the semester progressed, I can say he is a excellent teacher, he is helpful when needed and super funny, in his class he expects participation, and quizzes are given for each chapter, with only two test. Mid/Final.

Comment:

While he says he is a bad teacher, (More than likely as a joke) he is one of the most captivating teachers I've had. I can personally think of two teachers in my 6 years of college that popped out as genuinely loving to teach, and this is one of them. The other dressed up like historical characters to give lectures, so he is on par with that.

He's a great teacher, he will help you when you need it. He lets you redo the final and the midterm to bring up your grade. You literally have to be an idiot to pass his classes. He is also so funny, he likes to pick on people and give his opinion on everything.

One of PCT's finest! Allows you to makeup homework assignments, the midterm, and the final. Attendance is taken by plugging in a number so make sure to attend. Very knowledgeable and helpful in making sure you understand Excel and all the basic functions and concepts that relate to it. I had a great time and hope to take him again!

Super easy class. He gives you homework and you submit it then he lets you resubmit it and will average your grade if it was bad. Gives a practice midterm and final. Will help you with anything so he can pretty much do most of your homework for you. You need your textbook.

Online course: Didn't communicate throughout semester. Often would post assignments late and never would respond to emails. Easy course however, but don't expect to learn much of anything. Would recommend for an easy A, not to learn something.
