Comment:

I got to the end of this class with a 82% & my tests bumped up my grade to a 89%. Yet he gave me a D,I messaged him about it and he said he never makes mistakes but he gave me a C, I didnt mind to much as long as I passed but then on the last day of grade submissions he gave me an F. I tried talking to the Dean but the professor had erased evidence

Comment:

The worst professor at VVC. He would not respond to most emails. When he does, he would answer very vaguely. He had been telling students to use MLA for research papers till my ECON101, which I challenged him of using APA. At the same time, he said he was getting his doctrine. In ECON102, he started telling us to use APA. Stay away if possible.

Comment:

When I started this year I was excited that Ill be getting my associates degree and complete VVC in 2 years. Ive taken all the general education in the 1st year and was imagining how fun it would be to take the classes Im actually interested in. But I took his class within my first quarter and my hopes and dreams are shattered

Comment:

Accounting is not an easy course, but not impossible to pass. Professor Young gives his lectures, and real life examples to help understand. Attendance is very important, as accounting is a bit complex. I was late to class, huge mistake on test/quiz days. If you do the reading and homework, you will pass. He's always willing to help his students.

Comment:

I took Professor Young for Econ 101 online. He is very sarcastic when answering emails. He deducts points on discussion boards for no reason. It sucks that he is the only professor offering Econ 102 I will make sure to take my Econ 102 at Barstow Community college instead.

Comment:

In all honesty, hes a very tough Professor. Unfortunately even after taking the class I feel like I didnt learn much. His lectures are little to no help when it comes to his tests. I was a business major going into this class now Im changing it because of how discouraged I felt after it.

Comment:

He threw a 45 minute temper tantrum that included accusations of racism because I believed that we had a test one class earlier than scheduled (after he implied it would be early). His lectures were often more about his personal experiences than accounting and he quizzed on material he hadn't covered. Take online if you can.

Comment:

Professor Young is nice. You can tell he's passionate about what he teaches. However, the tests he gave were a little tough. We also had to subscribe to Wall Street which wasn't free, but was pretty cheap. Unfortunately, I still get mail from them. Definitely a tougher class I've taken.

Comment:

The class was super hard, not because of the content, but because of how he grades on a scale that is really unclear. I would receive almost perfect scores on his tests, yet I ended up with a C. I also did good on his papers , yet I still managed to get a bad grade. I should be thankful though, as most people that take his class fail.

Comment:

Professor Young repeatedly administered quizzes/exams with material not covered in lectures and absent from the text. He would vaguely allude to concepts and expect students to be able to display full comprehension of said concepts before they had the opportunity to ask questions or clarify any confusion. If you can avoid this class, DO SO!

Comment:

I have the SECRET to acing his lecture course. Buy the book with online code and every time you finish reading a section (ex 1.1), work on the online practice problems. Continue to work on the online problems for every chapter until you basically memorize them! Also, show up to class on time, call him professor, ask questions and look engaged!

I would highly not take him but if you need the class then take him online or with a different professor. He's difficult professor to work with and you will literally begin the master course in Economics.

I would highly recommend him online but if any other professor teaches the class then take the other professor instead of Professor Henry Young. It's like taking a master course in Economics!

Comment:

Professor young is by far the best teacher that a student can posses. His class is not meant to be easy, but you will definitely learn and grow as a student. Many students who attend college look for the easiest teacher, however by doing that you don't allow yourself to grow. Great Professor.

currently taking his hybrid class - what he does is tell you something will be due one day then puts it up online to be due sooner. AS IF HIS CLASS IS THE ONLY CLASS YOU ARE TAKING. he piles on the work. you learn from the book, all he does is sketch some graphs as examples on the board in class. ridiculous

Comment:

He dropped me after the first week of class of online without any warning of any kind. It made me sad because I just paid for the Aplia, so there goes 130$ for one time use code. The reason why I didn't take his class in person was because I have sat through his lectures before and they always confuse more than help.
