Berhane is such a warm, caring instructor. I am enjoying his class thoroughly because he welcomes questions and engages you with interesting content. His exams are straightforward and he does not give much homework at all. One of the best instructors in NAIT. I hope I can take another class he teaches.

He genuinely cares for his students to do good in class. I email him about certain questions and he replys within the day and replies in detail. He even offers to do one-on-one if you are having a hard time. His exams are pretty easy, so far ive been getting 70+. Definitely recommend him!

This professor cares about how students do in his course. The material is dry and boring but he tries to freshen it up with current news material. He regularly sends emails before and after class explaining what happened in class. There are group projects where you're expected to attend class and you can't choose your groups, so beware. He's Great!

Berhane truly cares about his students, and genuinely wants us to succeed. The assignments were straightforward and made great study tools come finals. I had some things going on in my personal life this semester, and Berhane was so kind and accommodating. Business environment is a dry course, but I would absolutely recommend him.
