Comment:

I thought Craig was a considerate teacher who tried to get us motivated about accounting. And really, this is accounting, people. He was always available to answer questions, was interested in students doing well, and the exam, while difficult, was fair if you did your homework like you are supposed to.

Comment:

Terrible lecturer, just repeats everything in the text. Exams are not really fair as he tests u on auditing applications, which he doesn't cover much. You'll have to do a lot of self-studying for this course.

Comment:

Teaches you information as if you can't read the book or notes. Hector, his TA, teaches this class WAYYY better than he does because he actually has NOTES. Lectures complete waste of time and so is the prof. Used to like accounting until now..worst prof ever and SFU as well as yourself are better off with ANYONE else

His powerpoint notes are word for word off the textbook. His class is as stimulating as a clipped nail and it's really true that you must teach yourself.

Comment:

WORST teacher EVER...His class is so pointless i stopped going after the midterm. He clearly has no idea about what he is teaching, and just reads the powerpoint slides. It is a hard class, and you must be able to teach yourself if you want to pass. Dont take him as a professor!!!!!!!!!

Comment:

Not only boring and pointless,but annoyoing.All the reviews have touched on the essentials but one more wouldnt hurt,only help.DONT TAKE this class with CRAIG EMBY-he reads out the powerpoints which he gets from the txt book cd,no clarity,just repetition,no insight-Not a prof,rather an unhappy Acct.

I've had worse... but, I agree with what everyone else has said... the lectures were not necessary... this class is basically an online class. Good luck on the final everyone.

WORST PROF IN THE WORLD!! DOESN'T POST A SAMPLE EXAM BECAUSE HE'S TOO LAZY.. TAKES OFF THE LAST WEEK OF CLASSES..DOESN'T SHOW UP TO ANY OF HIS OFFICE HOURS DURING EXAM WEEK! LECTURES ARE BASED ON THE POWERPOINT SLIDES AND HE DOESN'T ELABORATE AND HE CAN'T EVEN FIGURE OUT WHAT THEY'RE SAYING AT TIMES

Comment:

Prof doesn't go beyond the text book, it's really difficult to stay awake in his lecture. Though his midterm was fair, as long as you read the text you're good to go. Lectures are quite pointless.

Comment:

I think this class is super boring. You basically teach yourself since lectures are straight from the text. Class is unecessary as long as you do the readings and the assigments, you'll do fine on the exam.

Comment:

No need to go to the lecture, all he does is repeat the exact same thing from the textbook. But be sure to read EVERYTHING from the textbook, even the stuff he doesn't cover, because he will put up some 25-mark questions like that on the final any time.
