Mr. Faust is the best TCC Professor Ive had to date! He is so much fun and cares deeply about his students! If you pay attention in class, ask questions, and use every resource he provides you should pass the class! Get ready for Clog dollars, Lyntt, and Bordera. You cant help but laugh while taking his tests. Watch the review videos!!

He's a very fun and goofy teacher. He tried his best to relate economics to real life and talk about situations that applies to our lives. He shares a lot of his own personal stories, and are usually funny and not boring. There was a huge relief when I found out the way he grades tests, but I'll let you find that out for yourself. :) TAKE HIM!

Professor Faust is a man with so much knowledge. I took this class in the summer and as a person who is terrible economics, I would suggest taking him. His lectures were very interesting he would go a bit off topic from time to time but somehow ties it up with his lectures. He gives the final on the first day.

You're graded solely based off attendance (easy) and tests. He posts very specific review videos for these tests and gives out non-graded quizzes with questions that are very similar to test questions. Just pay attention and do some light studying and if you "get" econ you'll get an A. But even if this subject doesn't click for you - you'll pass.

He is overall a good teacher with simple grading criteria. Gives amazing lectures and use real life examples to help you understand better. Only downside is test is worth 80% of your grade. Which means if you fail all your tests with him, you're more likely to fail his class. Make sure to take good notes and study them and you should be fine.

I think the ratings for this professor are bogus. His class is hard and complex. His directions can be confusing. There is no additional homework however, he has weekly lesson you work on asynchronous. My only advice is to stay on top of the weekly lesson, make sure you understand the concepts because his questions on the test can throw you off.

Mr. Faust is no doubt my favorite professor. His lectures are always interesting and sometimes go off tangent, but usually relate to topics discussed. He is knowledgeable about the subject and especially of current events. I mainly took him just to fulfill my econ credit but left wanting to take him for 2301 but I transferred to a tech school :L

Lectures are interesting. However tests aren't great and often hinges how well you're taking notes. He can be a bit all over the place and disorganized so it can be difficult to follow. No reviews or book as a guide. Quizzes are helpful in studying. Questions on tests can be difficult to interpret based on his wording, biases and assumptions.

Professor Faust is an amazing teacher and very understanding. He lectures quite a bit but keeps it engaging and fun. He gives out material and worksheets mostly every day for you to practice what you learned the prior day. Use those worksheets to your advantage because they are great material to look back on when you are studying for his tests.

I was dreading economics but this class ended up being my favorite class! Faust is very understanding of economics being a somewhat boring subject and does everything in his power to make it more exciting. The tests can be a little challenging but you'll be fine as long as you study the quizzes. If you have to take econ, take Faust!

Mr. Faust's teaching style is very flexible. He sticks to a fairly structured lecture format. However, if a student wants an example or has something to add, he is more than capable of switching tracks to provide extra details. He speaks fast, includes humor, and is clear and concise. You'll think about your answers instead of being handed them.

He is very good at conveying things in an understandable way and is surprisingly very funny. You basically do the learning outside of class with videos and then take quizzes in class with your group (which you will be with the whole semester) and that is a big part of your grade so it can be luck of the draw with teammates. Overall very fun class.

One of the best teachers I've ever taken. He's extremely caring and helpful and the way he runs his classroom is set up for student success and genuine learning. I wish all teachers taught like him. His quizzes align BEAUTIFULLY will the exams and the exams/quizzes are directly from the videos you watch. YOU WILL NOT REGRET TAKING HIM.

I really enjoyed his class even though I don't care about learning about economics. He's really funny and honest which I appreciate. I also like the way the class is set up - like how it's a flipped class. I would recommend him to anyone.

I enjoyed this class more than I thought I would. This is a flipped classroom, so you are responsible for your own learning. You will need to watch videos & do some practice questions. Take good notes. Quizzes at the start of class, & group assignments. As long as you watch the material & study for exams, this class should not be difficult.

Mr. Faust is a good professor. You will be in groups in the beginning of the semester until the end, so no need to feel left out. If you don't like it then this may not be for you. The only thing I did not like was the individual quiz. Other than that, I enjoyed the lectures after the quizzes were done.

I've taken both macro and micro with Mr. Faust and the flipped classroom setup is very nice and convenient it is easy to follow and take notes at your own pace. The daily quizzes are a good chunk of the 3 major test making study pretty easy. The only coin flip for this class is your group you are assigned at the start but overall a wonderful class.

He is a down to Earth professor. I was slightly intimidated at the beginning but once we got going it was good.He is fair. Yes, alot of quizzes but those will help with the exam. You are in groups for the semester. He will relate and make sure you understand the material. He provided all components to be successful.

he dropped me for using the restroom, most of my absences were his fault, i only had 2 absences but two other were because i was sick and showed proof, 1 was due to him getting upset at me while i was in the class. If he is in a bad mood he will drop you so be careful what u want to say to him, also lied about the situation to make me look bad.

Reverse teaching method, so you learn outside the class with very easy to follow videos that you write notes for. (You can use them for the pop quizzes everyday) Graded by the small quiz everyday that you use notes then group talk then class wide discussion where at the end it gets graded. Class is super easy as long as you put a little effort.

Mr. Faust has a flipped classroom, yes, and he gave us very good videos to watch at home and there would be a sort of “group quiz” on most days. I liked this because it really forced me to think through the answers not just why it's right, but how can I persuade the group, and that caused some really good debate. Also, he really knows his stuff.

Mr. Faust is a very good professor. He was funny and made the class more enjoyable than the previous class I took online. I was able to understand microeconomics when I thought I wouldn't be able to understand it. You work in teams and have homework before class so make sure to have notes done before class for an easy A.

Overall a great class and a great teacher. You will almost always have homework videos, but it never takes to much time out of your day. The quizzes in class can be challenging, but you get to go over them with your group and class before the entire class gets graded together. The exams are also pretty challenging, but are same as the quizzes.

Not much more to say with all the 200 5 star reviews. They are all very true! Mr. Faust is an engaging and fun professor. The one thing I don't see much that I will add is that the 3 exams are very high stakes. Some can be difficult. He gives an optional final which replaces the lowest exam grade, and that optional final is MUCH easier.

Professor Faust runs a great microeconomics class. He does so in a flipped classroom so you have to watch notes outside of class, and do assignments and quizzes inside of class. Pay attention and you are almost certainly going to pass.

I met professor Faust at Kroger before I was even in college, amazing from the start. This man has an ecstatic personality and his lectures are fun. Y'all this was my free class, do the YouTube lessons before class and you are good!! This was such an amazing experience for my first semester. Awesome man, fantastic professor!
