Easy grade but do not learn anything. Always off topic and never know what he is teaching. Did not use the textbooks for any classes I had with him.

Comment:

All the bad reviews from 5 years ago are still true, he makes up problems, messes up the numbers, doesn't tell you what or how to do anything, is way too old, and says the test is based on problems in the book, and the test is COMPLETELY different, 90% of the class has to cheat to save their grade, cmon chaplin, retire already and save us the grief

Comment:

Do not take him. He is a nice enough guy and sometimes funny, but he teaches nothing, and thus far, his exams are too difficult for what he teaches & the policy is dumb as hell-jokes r xtra credit..ridiculous. I want to go to a class and learn, but I never learn anything when I go to his class. He needs to retire, he complains and he's too old.

Comment:

Take him for Accounting 1 and 2, but nothing else. He's getting way too old. He forgot the final at home and assigned a really long problem instead from the book. He doesn't explain anything that well. The presentation is a joke. Everything turned in for hw is an automatic 90% which could be good or bad.
