Professor Seyam is a kind, patient, and supportive professor who truly cares about student success. His clear and organized teaching makes accounting easy to understand. I joined his class mid-semester and wish I had taken him from the start. I highly recommend him, you won't regret it.

Professor Seyam is very knowledgeable and cares about his students' success. He is fair and if you show up, stay engaged, and put in consistent effort he will support you. This is a course where you need to attend the lectures, but expectations are clear and grading is fair. I recommend him to those students serious about learning the material.

Great professor! I truly learned a lot in his accounting course. Easy A if you study and pay attention. He explains topics thoroughly until everyone understands. 10/10!

Great Professor! He gives great lectures and good reviews before exams. He also gives lots of opportunities for students to do better at class. Definitely stay on top of the material; study everyday if you can. He is a great Professor who wants all his students to do well. I would totally take another class with him.
