Mr. Natali is a very funny and reasonable teacher, and he believes in giving second chances to his students, which is very handy! If you do badly on homework, he lets you re-do it. HE is the best PPCC teacher!

Love Natali as a teacher because he has a set plan and sticks to it. Everything is orderly and there is no mistaking what is due and when. As long as you go to class and pay attention on what to do, you will get an A in this class! The only thing about Natali is that he always talks about how we will be billionaires. No, we probably won't.

He explains WHY you need the material. Business stats makes no sense on paper, but he breaks it down and it turns into elementary math. It's so easy when he teaches it. Tests every 2 weeks so you don't forget anything. I skipped a lot of class, and made a C. If I'd gone - Easy A. There is homework from the book. You need it.

Dr. Natali is the best profressor I've had at PPCC. He is clear in what he expects and if you do the work, he gives you credit. If a class is required as part of your degree and he's the professor -- make sure you take his class!

This professor was amazing and his Legal Environment of Business class was definitely one of my favorite classes I've taken at PPCC. His lectures were interesting, his feedback were very helpful, and although I wasn't initially a big fan of the moot courts in this class, I ended up enjoying them over time. I definitely recommend this professor.

If you do the work (which there is an average amount of) you are basically guaranteed an A, I got like 50 points of extra credit throughout the semester just from turning things in early. I'm taking him again for business 2016 and it's the same deal. Natali is extremely knowledgeable about business and never just teaches out of the textbook.

I've had a lot of teachers and by far he is my least favorite. An extreme amount of work and expects a lot more than one can do, especially if you factor in the other classes you are taking. i would not reccomend.

Legal Environment of Business. Sounds scary right? Not so much! This class had a ton of reading and quizzes and papers, but it was super super easy. I feel like I learned a lot all while not stressing too much. We had over 20 quizzes and brief papers on chapters. 7 Moot Courts. 4 Discussion posts. Just keep up and you will be fine!

Professor Natali did a great job of engaging everyone in the material. He makes learning fun so it's very easy to pay attention to what he's saying and not get lost. He's also very funny and ensures everyone understands the material.

Love Natali, he is very organized and easy to learn with the way he teaches. This class (STATS) as well as (LEGAL BUS) are easy A's as long as you do the work. Ive took him for both classes and really do agree that he makes class fun and straightforward.

I have been at PPSC since 2014 (I know! I didn't know what I wanted to do and took my time). I can say that Dr. Natali is seriously one of the best instructors at this school. He made Business Statistics FUN and not scary at all. He is caring and funny and super helpful. He wants you to succeed. Do not be afraid of this class! You got this!

This class is online in summer and we are in week 3. He has not changed anything from spring semester so due dates are different depending on where you look. He is not tech savvy at all so do not take this online. Just an all together is a confusing professor, posts announcements with the wrong information. Assignments are easy in my opinion.

Many times he would be unclear about what was required for homework assignments, and would dock points for things that were not clearly expressed as grading criteria.

Dennis Natali is the best teacher I ever had. He teaches hard topics and it requires work but with that work being put in he will make sure you excel in the class. His grading criteria is very clear and he tells you exactly what you missed if you do miss anything. He honestly just inspires me please take his class if u can and will put in the work

I paid to be taught, Dr Natali is more interested in throwing a book at you and letting you teach yourself. For some that's fine, but not me, especially after I explicitly saying the opposite. His quizzes ask things he never covered and he dismisses that fact when brought up to him. Not sure how he got so many good reviews but don't trust them.

Natali is fantastic! While his class might not be the easiest in the world, he made class fun, relatable, and took the time to help students struggling. If I were a business major I would take every class with him.

Amazing professor...simply awesome. He is "by the books" and usually won't offer much slack but if you do your work, he is fine. His lectures/communication style are engaging, and you will enjoy his in-person classes. One time he gave everyone a 100% because he made a mistake and decided it shouldn't impact his students'. 100% would take again!

Professor Natali makes stats engaging and straightforward. While assignments can be unclear at times, engaging with the material and tools like Unstuck study makes this an easy A. Highly recommend taking his class if you can.

He makes statistics easy!!! All lectures are recorded and he shows step-by-step everything he wants to see in homework/exams. Just follow the videos and you'll get an easy A. He is extremely funny and responds quickly to emails. Homework due every week and exams every other week. Textbook is required but we never used it...

The best professor I have ever had, I took two classes with him. His grading expectations were very clear, his syllabus was easy to follow, he proved tons of information and feedback. Honestly, everything you would want in a professor. 15/10. Best regards.

Dennis Natali is an amazing professor. He doesn't do pop quizzes, and the exams are exactly like the homework, so no confusion at all. He makes statistics understandable, which I've never seen before. Also, I'm nonbinary and he lets me pass on gendered activities and correctly genders me I feel so safe, he is super supportive and inclusive!

He is also very funny which makes the class that much more interesting, definitely recommend!
