professor blumberg is a very good professor..he gives exam from class notes...he mostly teaches paralegal studies classes...if you are a paralegal major take him...vash..
He is the best as a professor and as a person.
Teaches mostly paralegal, and travel law classes. Very clear, funny, helpful.. Tests from notes
Prof Blumberg is a very good professor, understanding, patient and also caring towards his students. His teaching methods are very good and precise.
Very honest, helpful and funny. A great professor especially. But he grades his exams a bit difficult. He looks at every word you use and how you use it (guilty is a criminal term, not to be used in civil cases... -2pts) :)
he is one of the best and boring professor ever, i raely liked taking class with him, if you want to take class with him plz make sure you write down all the notes he writes on the board, and study them for the exam that way you will get an A or A+ in his class, plus do all of his homewrok.

This teacher sucks and has problems which he takes out on his students
Blumberg is a GREAT LAW professor, I would recommend him to any student. His tests are made up of the exact notes he gives in class.
Professor Blumberg is a very honest, hardworking and STRICT professor. He makes sure his students understand the basics of the Paralegal Profession and obtaining an AAS Degree in that Field. If you're taking his class, make sure you be on time to class, take excellent notes (buy a recorder)and complete all assignments on time!.
Prof. Blumberg is an EXCELLENT business law teacher. Very clear spoken when teaching,if you dont understand something just ask and he will repeat it as many times needed. He reviews for all exams. All exams are 22 defenitions and 11 true or false questions. Pass the tests, come to class and you will pass. VERY FUNNY, HONEST, and COOL.

This is the second class i take with him and all he does keeps getting better and better. He never gets tired of answering stupid questions. EXCELLENT teacher and very funny. BOOK is not needed. Pass his teas you pass his class.
Prof. Bloomberg is an exellent professor. I took three classes with him and i got A's. His exams have the same format, definitions and true- false. And just make sure you spell his name right!
he's good teacher... i mean nly 4 teaching... he only gives exams on his notes... never gives ne homework but is v strict 4 attendance n 4 his exams.. gives touch exams n cuts ur marks uselessly...he grades really badly !!! its better 2 take a prof who teaches badly bt atleast grades well !!!
An excellent teacher. An easy A just study notes and definations he puts on the board.
I had his for business law, intro to paralegal and civil lit. He is a great teacher. He explains everything in detail and he writes it on the board. Take very clear notes at all times. Study your notes even if he says it is not going to be on the test. This is his trick. But, he is a great teacher and is not very hard on people. What u put in u get
He is an excellent teacher and has very effective techniques. You will learn a lot in his class. He is also very cute wehn he makes jokes and funny. Best law teacher! 2 thumbs up! Follow what he is saying and study the notes and you'll get a good grade.
Highly recommended
business law...great teacher... funny jokes... MEMORIZE THE NOTES... ITS STRAIGHT FROM THERE... super easy as long as you study.
Great professor with impressive acedimic credintials. The man receive his master at law from Yale and his JD from univeristy of Pennslyvia. I recommend that you take good notes. Must of his exam questions will come his notes.
he is a very nice professor, very helpful and funny, you will learn a lot from him.
He is very easy 2 understand, and u ABSOLUTELY DO NOT NEED THE TEXT BOOK! He makes his own notes, and everything he puts on the board is on the exam. So if ur not a good note taker, than you will fail this course. However on the final exam, he put somethings i was not familiar wit, but I still passed with a B. He will answer everyones questions,
Excellent professor. I enjoyed his class a great deal. He was funny and straightforward with the material. He has impressive academic credentials. Educated at University of Pennsylvania and Yale.
He’s a wonderful professor. Loved his teaching techniques, you will learn a lot about the law. His exams are based on the definitions he gives and are all in your notes. Also he is very funny, and straight forward. I recommend him, just don't spell his name incorrectly.
He's the best teacher ever!!! He's the man!!!
I Found Professor Blumburg methods of teaching to be very complicated.Yes, It's true you don't need the book....He writes a lot of notes, and you have to memorize everything word for word...If you are good at memorizing things take his class. he is not a terrible teacher students just have to be able to memorize everything. A lot of work!
I didnt do diddly squat in tis class and he passed me! great teacher!
**VERY IMPORTANT** this is my second time taking Blumberg, and anything you need to know for his class he will put it on the board. NO NEED 2 PURCHASE A TEXTBOOK!! All u need is good note taking skills, and great memory and you will pass his class.
He is very good at teaching. You can really understand what he was teaching. All from the board. You don't need to buy a text book. But sometimes very boring. There is no extra credit, so if you did bad in one exam it is tough to get a good grade. Overall he is good.
Wonderful teacher, very interesting and with a good sense of humor. It`s true you don`t need a book but you must memorize everything he puts on the board - everything. I also think teaching is his thing :) I`m glad he`s working at laGuardia :)
just read your notes! is as easy as possible!
He is the best.Patient,ironic and polite professor with good sense of humor.u never gonna get bored in the class.He makes everything crystal clear so u dont have any difficulty understanding him,plus he gives lots of real life examples and makes boring subject such as biz-law interesting.I will strongly suggest to take his class
He is a very funny and knowledgeable "official senior citizen"(thats what he calls himself) who talks a lot of funny facts in class. He teaches the things that are related to our daily life . His exams are easy,which everything is on the board. You just have to review it before the test and you are guaranteed to get an A.
he is a great prof. u dont have to but textbooks. his exams are really easy if you study his notes before the test!!
EASY CLASS. JUST COPY NOTES AND MEMORIZE THEM FOR EXAMS. FUNNY PROFESSOR TOO. VERY HELPFUL! NICE TO CHAT WITH ASWELL.
He is a great professor, he know what he is teaching, his class is a little hard but he explain it very good, he make the class have fun at the same time that he is teaching, i recomend you to take his courses.
he is good, but i dun like him.... it may be easy to get a good grade... but if you want to learn, dun take his class!!!! u have to memorize everything he teaches....
Those exams lol u have to literaly remember every definition he puts on the board! Or else u will fail his tests! Real nice and I love his old stories
I can honestly say thaT proffessor Blumberg is one of the best at the college. I took him for 3 courses and got A'S. you don't need to buy the book just copy and memorize everything he puts on the board and you'll get your A!!
Prof. Blumberg teach students with real life examples.If you take his note and could memorize the terms for exam than you will get an A definitely. You don't need to read the book unless you missed the class. He gives 75% of the exam questions on his review. His exams are not cumalitive. I'm taking him again for my BTM 110 class.
Very helpful and extremely clear. Tests are easy if you study. If you don't study you will still pass if you attend classes and pay a little attention. Took class during session II, A little more difficult but possible.
He was born to be a teacher. Perfectly clear and very helpful. Just memorize all the definitions and you will get an A for sure. I had a lot of fun and miss the class...
He dictates 100 percent of his class notes,therefore attendance is necessary. He gives alot of homework assignments but they are easy. If you have a good memory it is an easy course. He is a great teacher and very understanding and helpful. Also, he follows the same format for every test. I receivd an A,you just got to do the work and study.
it is not difficult but you have to remember all notes. don't be lazy for the homework because he will count it in your final grades.
hard for English second language students. He teaches by conversation basis and his handwriting is horrible.
He is a good professor. That said, I must admit that it was kind of annoying hearing him repeat stories 2, 3, and sometimes even 4 times! I had him in the 6 week session so it was double the trouble : ) Make sure you learn those definitions exactly as he tells you and not what you find online. Also, DO your HWs or your grade WILL suffer later. GL!
Everyone should take business law. I received an A in professor Blumberg's class in Spring semester of last year. I still talk about what I learned in his class fairly regularly. It was a great course, and he is a good teacher.
i love this professor!
Prof. Blumberg is a very gentle aged professor. If you like to ask questions, you should definitely take his class since he loves to answer questions. Anytime, any type, no problem! One thing I like about him is that he is very genuine, being fully open to his students. Class discussions are fun even for English as 2nd language speaker. Great man!
Blumberg is great. he gives out 6 to 8 assignments in a semester and his tests are ok if you study his notes only. you don't need text book but be prepared to study hard for the exam because you need to put his words if you want to get the full credit otherwise he wouldn't accept your own definitions. Legal definitions ONLY
Awesome professor. Found this class extremely easy. The only people that complained about him being a "hard grader" were obviously those who missed class, missed homework, and clearly did not study. One thing I noticed though, if he has something to tell an individual student about academic progress, he will say it in front of everyone. Not good.
He's easy. His tests are from the notes in class so you have to go. Do the homework, it helps you at the end and they're not even hard. They're mostly opinion based. He doesn't talk loud so sit in the front. And he uses the book but you don't really need it.
Do not listen to his review. The exams are not all from his review. You must take all notes and review all your notes to pass the exams.
this prof is amazing! people complain that he is strict but i learned so much from him!! he is unforgettable and will always be my fav professor with an old fashion sense of humor!!
He has a sense of humor as far as his lectures go. As a honor class, it is very lacking. He is asking everything what he puts on the board in exams (including commas and periods). In honor's class, he asks for short writing assignments which he never grades. Throughout the semester all I did was to memorize what he put on the board word to word.
He only asks what he's put on the board. In order to understand the terms of law, he gives daily examples with real stories and you gonna get the meaning. Exams are not too difficult... you memorize what he puts on board. Easy class in the short term
Easy A... he gives simple definitions for the terms so you can memorize them easily. Not too much homework. Interesting stories and easy grader. Very nice for ESL students.
easy business law class and explains very well but exams a little hard but if you study his notes u pass book is unnecessary
He is a great Professor.
I have taken professor Blumberg for several different law classes at lagcc while doing my paralegal studies associates. He is amazing and a wonderful professor. He is fair and if you pay attention and take good notes there is absolutely no way you will not get an A. Excellent professor
He is one of the best professor I had so far. His teaching methods are kinda tough if you don't like taking notes and writing word for word because he expects that on his exam to use the notes he written on the board. WORD FOR WORD(periods, commas and spelling. Everything!0
Take word for word notes in his class. Everything he writes on the board, write it in your notes. If you study, you'll be fine. Great professor, definitely recommend!
He is a very nice professor. as long as you recite the note he gives on the board, you will get A. He only assigned 4 essays (not formal). strongly recommend him! By the way, he likes Asian students. so good for Asian students.
Took his business law class, one of the easiest class. We just had to memorize whatever he puts on the board. Just the definitions. Great prof
He is a terrible professor to be honest, I have no idea how he got this grade guys BEWARE. He spends alot of time talkingabout his personal life instead of drillingwhat will be on the test. Not to be mean but I think he just teaches this class sohe will have someone to talk to. But that is besides the point as a professor he is a really tough grade
greattttt
One of the best teachers I have had. He shares real life experiences. His notes are crucial for his test. I loved his class. He is very smart and very nice. Definitely recommend him.
Prof. Blumberg lectures are long and boring.. No extra credit given and Hw assignments doesn't count but can hurt your grade which makes no sence. There is (3) exams and to pass his exams you need to memorize over 50-80 definitions. He talks repeatedly about his personal life. Avoid !
Loved this professor, however his exams are difficult,but you have at-least one week to study. everything he writes on the bored will be on the exam, and i do mean Everything. come to class and take great notes and you will be fine. He talks about real life experience so you can relate/ remember the material.
Great professor, his lectures are extremely funny. Notes are very important and you must memorize them. Class is easy if you come to class and study from your notes. He is caring and will help you out.
He is a nice professor, but I don't think I've learned much. If you write everything he writes on the board you are good for the exams. He asks exactly what he writes. Some writing assignments on the topics, but nothing crazy. The class in general is pretty easy... PS: He really cares about English Grammar!!
Best teacher i had. Clear in what he says, easy test, hillarious, would help you.
HE IS AN AMAZING TEACHER, TAKE NOTE OF EVERYTHING THAT HE PUTS ON THE BOARD!!!!
he is so boring prof. he don't make you understand. he is old and repeat something over and over again and just give example of his student life and his life. but he is in OK prof i wouldn't recommen this but if you can get 85+ in the test you will get in easy a but one more problem he his is that he don't grade the homework but if you don't do it
Great Professor. He is straight on what he expects from you. Write everything on the board and memorize for tests. Ask questions, he loves them. Homework is not graded but do them, they will expand your knowledge and be very careful with your grammar. He cares about students and their success.
takes note of everything he writes, memorize them, and you'll be fine. the lectures are easy to understand, and he is willing to help the students to get better.
boring run away because you will end up learning about his life not about the class.
in general this class is fine but he is very particular about how you define vocabulary during a test. If you are great at memorizing then take this class and memorize his particular definitions. he doesn't care if you have the idea and reword it in your own words he wants to see exactly what he writes on the board. tests are straightforward.
Great professor! Come to class on time, do your homework which is really easy, take note and memorize. I don't know why people are saying, he want you to put word for word definition on the exam. You don't have to, as long as he could understand what you are trying to say, you're safe. I have taken 4 different classes with him and I got all A's.
He is a very wise person. He is straight forward about what he expects from his student on the first day and will remind you throughout. He gives a partial review for exams (T/F & Short Answers) and does NOT give any extra credit. Whatever he puts on the board WILL be on the exam and he will take points off if you do NOT have the exact definition.
Not a good teacher , only vocab like what.
He is amazing. Only let you learn what is going to be on the exam. Does partial review the class before the exam of what is on the exam.
Whatever is on the board is gonna be on the test.I took him for 5 different classes, got A in all of them. Just go to class, take notes and you will do well.
He is a good professor. 9 papers, no tests or midterms, get ready to read. He actually cares about his student.
Was about to take his class online in Fall 2020. He didn't even set up 1 zoom meeting. We were supposed to just read each chapter and write him a paper 2-3 pages long each week. That's it. No explanation, no syllabus, nothing. I can't believe you have to pay for this the same as for in-person. Dropped out immediately, took another class.
His stories are hilarious and make the dull subject easier to remember for test taking.
