good guy

what a hottie! tests are tricky but if you study you'll be alright, he curves anyways and gives extra credit, you can't fail.

his tests are real hard

nice guy, but really hard. apply yourself and you wont fail, but you still may not like the grade. i wouldnt reccomend him unless you have a good understanding of economics before coming into the course

hottest man alive and good teacher. class is kinda hard you gotta read the book and study to get a good grade. but wow hes BEAUTIFUL =)

great professor! he gives you the topics before the test. just study and you get a good grade by the way he gives a curve.

If you study u will do well

Just study. Uses the whole class time to explain the chapters. So take notes.

He is so hot, he reminds me of a younger Robert Deniro, soooo hottt... he's an awesome Professor, just read the chapters because its all on the test. He reviews well too so pay attention.

Very easy...just pay attention and do your hw. His test are multiple choice, just make sure u review.

Great Guy! Explains everything! Take notes and read the chapter....I got a B+

very simple prof to rate.not an easy class at all.still learn a lot if you pay attention,show up to class,and do the homework and u can pass.dont take unless u dont want to think hard.also a very nice and approachable guy.uses confusing but interesting concepts

Great teacher... I believe he is probbly my favorite teacher i had in st johns.... If you do the Homework you will be fine... helps if you ask for help

i like him...he's clear and fair, everything on the test is from lectures, take notes, read the chapters and do the hw you'll do fine

ECO is not my strong point and i only took it because i need it to graduate and i told him that the first day of classes. Canale is a very good professor who will go through easy stuff fast but if you ask him to he will dumb it down so that anyone can understand it. his tests are MC and really easy and i def suggest you take him

Im not going to say it was an easy class, but it will make it alot easier if you READ the text, everything on the tests are things he has discussed in class, u must work hard in the class pay attention take notes and STUDY, hes a great teacher only teacher i actually learned in this semester, but if ur looking for an easy A this is not the class!

wasnt the easiest class i attended but test are MC and are based on the lecture the test are straight out of the lecture and if you read the text you will be fine 4 Test all mc he knows his stuff

Not necessarily an easy professor, but a nice guy nonetheless. Gives a lot of homework (5-6 questions from the textbook basically every class) and some of the test questions are set-up and worded in tricky ways. But if you put some effort in, do the hw, and read the textbook you should be alright.

The class isn't 'easy' per se, but it helps if you actually read the text book. The guy really knows his stuff, and the ones who do poorly either don't show up for class, or don't ask for help when they need it. All in all, it was an alright class, I'd say.

One important thing is that he does not like late students. If you're late multiple times he will tell you to leave the class room. Everything on the tests he goes over in class. Attending class and doing the homework are the most important things in order to do well in this course. Also questions on things you're unsure of.

He is actually one of the best professors I've had as a freshman. His tests are not hard if you do your work and listen to his lectures . He puts a lot of enthusiasm to his lecture and engages the class in a way where everyone in the class strives to learn the material and get a good grade. Class discussions are also interesting.

He is very understanding and easy to talk to. The class discussions are very interesting to watch, this guy knows how to talk. Textbook is definitely required as you will be assigned a lot of reading and questions. If you plan to miss class, I wouldn't recommend you to take him because each class focuses on important information you will need.

Macroeconomics isn't the easiest course to take. Canale is a great person to take for this course. Just don't be late and don't waste time by messing around. Efficiency is key.

Overall good

Took him for both Eco1001 and Eco1002. He treats you like an adult. He expects you to do the readings and homework. Whatever you do not understand he will try to help you cover in class. He might seem intimidating, but try your best to ask for help. He's really understanding and cares about you learning.

Prof Canale is a role model. He is up to date each and every day, he knows what hes talking about, and he inspires you to be at your best. Final grade is based on 4 tests and hw. Come to class, take notes on his lectures and you will be fine. Study for the tests, otherwise you will fail. I think he's the best prof. St John's has to offer!

His tests are based on what we talk about in class. So you must show up to every class, or else you won't know what's going on. If you feel like you're having trouble in the class, or failed a test, go talk to him because he will help you! He does seem intimidating but he's there for you. Make sure you show up and pay attention and STUDY.

Great Professor. He brings the material, which can be kind of tough, down to your level. Homework is worth 5% of the grade so you might as well do it. 4 tests and he prepares you for each one. Highly recommended. He will help you out when he sees that you have good attendance and do the homework.

Professor Canale is easily the best professor I've taken at St. John's. I've never had a professor that taught so well to the point that I still remember what he taught to this day. While his tests are difficult, they aren't as hard as many make them out to be. Study and pay attention! Do your homework and write down good notes and you'll get an A.

Professor was helpful if you needed a better understanding of the curriculum. Must attend class and pay attention. Study a lot for the exams and do the homework assigned and you should be fine.

I never once took economics before and I can say out of the whole semester economics was my favorite class. As long as you show up to every single class, do the homework, and study for the 4 tests that you'll get out of the whole semester then you can easily get an A. All exams are multiple choice, but you must study and attend class! ClassMUST!

he's been the best econ professor I've taken. I took Micro with him and he really cares about his students. The homework was every class, but wasn't that long and gave you credit for trying. tests were kinda hard, but if you try in the class and take notes and study he will see that, I left with an A in the class. People on FB or who slept Failed.

Attendance isnt mandatory but if you miss class, youll miss a lot of information that you need. He goes over everything you need to know for his tests, nothing is on his tests that he doesnt go over. Gives lot of homework but is only 5%. Great professor and really cares for his students. If you show up and pay attention, you should get an A.

Great lecturer. He goes over everything in class that'll be on tests thoroughly. Won't penalize you for skipping class, but you'll miss a lot of info/explanation. Grades based on 4 tests, each worth more % of your grade. No tech in class though. If you do go to class, DON'T BE LATE OR ON YOUR PHONE, he WILL call you out in the middle of class.

Great professor and great lecturer. He does a great job with explaining the material and makes it very clear, but make sure you read the textbook so you can understand the full concept. The class is made up of 4 tests, and hw assignments. He doesn't allow any technology in class. I really enjoyed the class and I learned A LOT

I felt like I could run the federal reserve after this class. he was a great lecturer, and was really passionate about the information he taught. class is made up of 4 tests. you really have to take good notes and read the textbook to do well. if you skip one class you most likely will not do good on the tests, show up and pay attention. Great prof

Great professor! Really helps you understand the material Traditional teaching style, lectures on a chalkboard w/ 4 tests. Attendance isn't mandatory but his tests are based mostly on the lecture Tests are fair and multiple choice but worth a lot so make sure you're a good test taker. You need the textbook for hw but hw is only worth 5%

These reviews baffle me, he is an amazing professor! He truly wants you to succeed and has a passion for what he teaches, but if you don't put in the effort, he won't either. His lectures are incredible and help you retain so much information, my whole class was always engaged. My favorite professor hands down. TAKE HIM!

Great professor! I'm a difficult student to teach, but I've never learned more in a class than I have in his. His lectures are amazing and he'll answer any questions you have along the way. Very intelligent, he was happy to answer any outside questions I had about economics or finance. Definitely would take again!!

Prof. Canale is a sharp educator who is especially good at boiling a topic down to as simple as it can be. That being said, taking notes in his class is especially important because test grades will make up more than 90% of your grade. SHOW UP ON TIME - he will grill you if you're late.

He is a no BS prof and he is very straightforward. He assigns a lot of HW and it's based on and in the textbook. HW due every class day. Lectures aren't bad, he's good at talking but he will ramble on if someone is a minute late.

Dr.Canale is a very respectable and fair professor. He is enthusiastic about teaching his class and genuinely wants you to understand the material. If you pay attention and do your work, you're going to be fine. Most of the bad reviews about him are written by lazy students who don't care.

Its been a few years since I had Professor Canale, but the best way to describe him is a good but old-fashioned Professor. There is no electronics in his class, everything is hand-written, including weekly homeworks from the textbook. He has a huge problem if ur late too. This isn't a class for an easy A, but if you listen you can learn & do decent

Taught in a way that made it easy to understand the material. Important to attend class/take notes or you'll fall behind. Expectations were reasonable and respectable; don't be late or on your phone. Overall great professor would take his class again!
