Comment:

His lectures are terrible and provide no value at all. If you're in his class, just take your textbook and simply do the practice problems. Also, if you have a question regarding the course material, don't bother going to his office as he's never there. Outside of that, he seems like a nice guy though. Just not very good at explaining things.

His lecture has literally no value at all! The prof is horrible. Just memorize all test bank and you would receive 90+.

Comment:

Professor Roubi is a nice person, he's really easy compared to some other professors, skipping class won't hurt much cause he teaches from the book and doesn't really add much on top of the that. You'll get a better grade but not learn much from his course.

Comment:

He's a very timid guy and speaks very low. Very knowledgeable about accounting in general, however. The midterm he gave was easy, but the final was difficult. Quizzes that he gives are a shot in the dark. Mostly guessing unless you read and memorized the textbook. Overall a decent prof and would take again.

He's a good teacher, just wish he wouldnt make so many mistakes and maybe give more hints as to what to study for on the exams, and lastly try to make sure examples are able to be seen by everyone in the room but other then that good teacher.

Comment:

Worst. extremely low voice, fight for the front seat if you want to know what the heck he's talking about. His lecture was a nightmare, bu the midterm and quiz were super easy (class average around 75, if not 80), final will be a little bit hard, you have to read the textbook carefully because he didn't really mention some of the stuff.

Comment:

Good teacher. Knows his stuff. Gives students the choice if the final exam is higher than the midterm, he replaces the midterm mark with the final. However, this is never the case since the final is brutal, long and comprehensive. Do well on midterm and quizzes since the final will bring down your mark. Went down from low 80's to high 60's.

He definitely wants to help his students succeed. I've had him for both 2p32 and 3p33 and it was great. He teaches what's important and does a lot of examples in class.

Really good prof. You need to attend class as he does problems that are not posted online. Kinda funny at times. Really likes class participation. I would take a class with him again.

Wasn't that great of a prof others noted him to be. I guess it was because our class was 8am in the morning and only 5 showed up to class. He's always the last one to show up and the first one to leave. Also, we missed 3 weeks of lectures because he was on vacation.

He is a great prof at Brock, he knows his stuff well, also if you attend his class, you can learn the most of the materials, dont have to spend more time on this course. His exams are not extremely hard, but you have to definitely spend time on reviewing.

No real surprises on test/exams. Attend class (and pay attention) and do some homework and your set. It's may not be a bird course, but he is fair. Attending classes are your best tools as he gives tips on what is important for the exams.

We got destroyed. He must have been having a bad day, because that exam killed us. I just hope I get a decent mark in the end. This may be my second C in 4 years of university. Normally I get A's
