Comment:

If you enjoy retaking classes by all means take this class but you will fail. He is IMPOSSIBLE to understand and you will learn next to nothing. He is BY FAR THE WORST PROFESSOR/TEACHER I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. I retook this class with Shoop and got an A after failing with this awful guy. The class is easily passable with any other professor.

DON'T TAKE-WORST PROFESSOR I HAVE EVER HAD. I'm an honors student with a 4.0 GPA going into this class but it might change purely because of him. He's so so rude, says he wants you to ask questions, but yells at you when you do. During one test, a fire alarm went off, and he said if we wanted to leave we had to turn in the test and be done. AVOID

You can't understand what he is saying half the time, he gets angry when students ask questions, doesn't listen to anyone else's ideas. Study from the book and you can still pass but it will still be tough. Try to find another professor.

The worst professor I've every had. Ridicules anyone who asks questions as if they were dumb. But also yells at you if you don't ask questions. Extremely hard to understand and does not teach you in a manor in which is understood easily. DONT TAKE HIM!!

Comment:

Im not even done with the semester yet and this is by far the worst experience with a professor i've had while at ISU. He's very impatient, has a thick accent, and doesn't go over material in a matter that helps you retain information well. At all costs, I would avoid taking this course with him.

Comment:

If you are looking for a class you can actually pass this is not the class for you. Gives random 45 question quizzes and nearly impossible tests. He also cut our time in half for our final so instead of having 2 hours like we were supposed to have we only had 1. If you end up in his class somehow Good Luck.

Comment:

This is the worst professor I've ever had, and I'm a senior. He's very hard to understand, which might be acceptable if the things he said made sense in the first place. When students ask for clarification, he often ridicules their questions, and sometimes doesn't even bother to answer. He assumes if you don't know the material you've been asleep.

Comment:

Accent was awful. And he seemed really smart but was terrible at teaching. Made a relatively easy stats class difficult by forcing students to do longhand formulas rather than just using a calculator. Calc's weren't prohibited though, so using my TI-89 I got an easy A. My advice is get a calculator and learn how to use the stats programs beforehand

Worst professor I have EVER had. DO NOT take MQM 100 with him! He yells at you if you do not ask questions and if you do! I went to EVERY SINGLE class and did all of the homework and still got a D. What he teaches and what is on the test are completely different. DO NOT TAKE HIM GUYS!!!!!

Terrible professor. Yells at you if you don't ask questions and yells at you if you do. Hard to comprehend and the material he teaches bounces around every where. DO NOT TAKE HIM. If I would have read his reviews prior to taking his class I would have never taken him. Recommend Shoop or anyone else.

DO NOT TAKE MQM 100 WITH HIM. He complains how no one asks questions, but when someone does he yells and makes fun of them. You cannot understand a word he says and you will have to try to teach yourself. I hated this class and this awful professor.

Awful, incredibly hard to understand, and his tests are confusing as well. Even if you understand all the concepts from the book, the test is too confusing to even know what its asking

This class will be very hard if you take him. He yells at his students all the time and doesn't explain ideas clearly. He is not helpful.

Comment:

Class isnt hard just have to be there and avoid asking questions unless you want him to raise his voice and repeat what you already didnt understand. Test are worded funny but not that difficult if you do the homework. Will curve the all around grades depending on the class. Important points are when he yells and then goes quiet

Comment:

I don't understand all these negative ratings. He is hard to understand and his tests are worded strange, however if you teach yourself from the book you can easily get an A. Also I never asked questions in class but I found it hilarious when others did, he will tear you a new one.

Comment:

Horrible teacher! Like others have said, mean, nasty, poor teaching and communication skills. Answers your questions by repeating what he just said that made you ask in the first place....i.e, doesn't answer questions. College of Business won't let you change classes after the first week so get out quick!

This child is known for belittling and humiliating his students. A total jerk who expects you answer all of his questions within a few brief seconds. Just stay away; the sour blue face next to his name sums it all up for you. Good day :).

Comment:

This man is by far the worst teacher I have ever experienced in my life. it is impossible to get through his accent, and everything he teaches differs from the book. office hours are useless he just rants about how you dont try enough. he has his doctorates degree and assumes you do too. his notes are that of an small child and are sloppy
