His class is boring but he explains the material well. Does think that we don't know how to do some really really easy things like converting a % to a decimal and slope. Test are really easy as long as you go to class and listen

The material is complicated and his tests can be hard, but he is funny and very willing to help you.

Great professor, goes into detail about everything and is really funny. Puts all of his notes online which makes it really easy to study for exams which are all multiple choice. Not to mention he gives great study guides.

Not a bad teacher. I only question if he actually knows anything...? You don't need his lectures because they are straight from the book. He never has personal examples or insight into anything! Also ironic because attendance is required. However he is overall a nice guy and willing to help. I found the tests to be very fair. Study and you'll be o

I liked him pretty well. Really knows his stuff and is very energetic about the subject. Extremely willing to help. Tests aren't hard but can be tricky if you don't think through the questions logically. Attendance is extra credit which I liked. Power Points are on BB which helps. Class is pretty boring.

This professor has really great insight in econ. Difficulty of tests are average. Not the best professor I've had, but by no means the worst. Very decent, I would take him again.

He is a really funny guy and easy to talk to. Extremely knowledgeable in economics. Great insight. The tests destroyed the class. They are so hard and so complex!!!!! The class avg on the 2nd midterm was a 60%. Great teacher bad tests.

He is a great professor,very knowledgable and helpful. His breadth of knowledge was sometimes amazing. He would answer a broad range of questions not directly related to the text. I strongly recommend him.

One of the best teachers I have had. Very knowledgeable and energetic. I did not have much interest in economics before taking this class but I am now seriously considering changing my major to economics. Do take advantage of his office hours he is very helpful.

He is an excellent professor and funny too. I really enjoyed his class and learned a lot especially about the current events.

He is really good, knows a lot about economics. He had the class divided into two groups and had one group explain the stuff that he teaches to the other group. I thought this was pretty cool. I learned a lot this way.

One of the best, if not the best, professors I have ever had. He is full of energy and enthusiasm. His is very well versed in the subject matter and takes a lot of time to make sure everyone understands before he moves on. I highly recommend him.

I liked him. He was helpful and made the concepts easy to understand. His tests were fair.

I like the way he lectures, he makes sure everyone understands before moving on. Unlike Prof. Hendryson, he rarely gets off topic.

Farrokh is a great econ professor! He spends alot of time explaining things to you so you understand it well. He also gives time for you and a partner to explain what he just said to each other which helps ALOT! Test are ok as long as you study for them. And do the online homework!

Great class. Great professor. Tests were all multiple choice and was a breeze.

Sometimes he gets off-topic but not as much as Hendryson. Highly recommended for econ 207.

One of the best in the business, has great insight into economics and finance. I strongly recommend him.

He is very good at explaining. Takes his time to make sure we all understand him, goes into details a lot. He knows a lot about economics. I have enjoyed his class and learned a lot. Will take another course with him for sure.

I really liked the way he teaches. He is very patient and wants everyone to understand before he moves on. Extremely willing to help and very competent. I really enjoyed it when he talked about current economic situation in the country. Tests are fair but you have to prepare for them. I got an A but had to work hard for it.

Professor Kahnamoui is very passionate and knowledgeable in the subject. His lectures and homework were perfectly correlated to the tests- no surprises. This was my second time with him and he did a great job both times. I highly recommend him.

Great guy, good prof. He is very intelligent, and knows what he is talking about. He often initiates discussions among students to help ensure everyone is learning the info. Great class, I learned a lot. A few tests had ambiguous questions, but after talking to him he gave credit where credit was due. I'll be looking for his other classes later.

Farrokh was a great prof. for macroeconomics! He was very clear in his lectures and explained topics until the whole class felt comfortable with them. Tests are difficult, but if you attend lecture and read the book you should be fine. He also takes attendance, so be sure to go if you want full participation points.

Kahnamoui was one of the best professors I have had at Western. He is crazy smart, and knows how to make a joke every once in a while. He makes everything very clear and is always offering help.

Definitely worth taking a class from him! He lays out exactly what you need for the tests and will adjust the tests if he hasn't covered all the material. Best Econ professor I've had so far.

After struggling in ECON 206 with a different professor, I was apprehensive about 207, but Kahnamoui is straight-forward about the material, and his exams are completely fair. He randomly calls on students to test our knowledge. Though his class is great overall, he can be a little stand-offish at times and argues with students quite a bit.

Professor Kahnamoui is a great professor and really knows his stuff. Show up to class everyday and take good notes. Do the homework, its not graded but the questions are the same types of questions you will see on the tests.

Great professor. I'm not great at economics, and did not do very well in econ 206. However, I did much better in this class mostly because he was a great teacher and did a good job of making the subject matter as clear as possible by having students explain concepts to each other during class, and then explain them again out loud.

I loved this professor, easily my favorite at Western so far! He really breaks down each topic and provides awesome examples to help clarify topics. I would recommend the homework; it helps students to better understand the material, and helps if you're not a good test taker. TAKE PROF KAHNAMAUI! You won't regret it!

Excellent professor. Explains all concept in excellent detail and uses really good examples that clarify concepts very well. Tests are not too difficult as long as you know the concepts, and all multiple choice. Really friendly guy who can also be pretty funny. Take him!

I definitely recommend Farrokh. He explained things very clearly and allowed time for students to explain concepts to each other which really helped. All multiple choice tests that weren't super hard. Go to class and study and you will be fine. Oh, and the Aplia homework is a waste! The way it's graded makes it more challenging than it should be.

He was a great prof. HW is optional- I chose not to do it and still expect an A. Without hw there is VERY little work outside of class and exams are all multiple choice and not too hard at all. He also has a hilarious sense of humor and keeps the class very entertaining. I would take him again. Attendance taken for extra credit, great grade boost.

Kahnamoui is one of the best teachers I've ever had, and I have also taken 207 and 303 with him. He is always there to answer questions. He teaches you where to get economic data in class so you can see the theories in action which is extremely useful, unlike any other professor I have had. His tangents are very educational.

He got me into Economics and now I'm studying it! He has an accent which may be hard for some people to understand but I think he is a great professor and he really explains things well. Tests come directly from problem set homework, and the online homework isn't too bad.

Great professor. Makes class really interesting and involves students. Very helpful and really understanding. Wish I could take a class from him again.

Kahnamoui was a great professor! He really cares about how his students are doing, and will push back exam dates if he feels like the students aren't ready. His study guides are clear and it's what will be on the test. The content gets a little tough near the end. But he provides a lot of examples. 100% would take him again!

Farrokh is a great professor. He posted all his lectures on canvas along with problem sets to allow you to practice the material. I wouldn't recommend to do Aplia unless you really think you'll bomb the tests. The tests are basically the problem sets that he posts and goes over in class. Study the material and problem sets and you'll do fine.

Kahnamoui was a good teacher, and was pretty funny and knowledgeable. However, I found lecture to be a little all over the place, and relied on my textbook for clarity. He gives a little extra credit for attending/participating in class, and it's worth going, but as long as you either go to class or read the book, you will do fine!

Farrokh really knows his stuff- I respect his intellect and the amount of depth he goes into with the lectures. He's very clear in answering questions. When he lectures, he tends to forget about the powerpoint- he'll go over something, and then skip right past the slides that detail it. I would bring my laptop and go through the slides as he goes.

K-dog is hilarious. His love for desperate housewives always gives me a chuckle. The dude is so passionate about the subject and he is such a caring guy. Best Econ prof. take him whenever possible.

Great prof with a sense of humor. Also had him for Money and Banking which he made relatively entertaining. Good grasp on student comprehension.

Prof Kahnamoui was overall a great teacher. He is very knowledgeable on the subject and is such a funny guy! Everything is laid out clearly for students, tests are multiple choice, and he gives you a study guide before each exam. His lectures can be a little dry and he gets off topic occasionally, but I would definitely take another class from him!

I really liked this class. It's easy to get a good grade in, with a pretty light workload. Everything is straight forward on the three tests, and all are multiple choice. He is funny and goes off topic sometimes, but posts all lectures online. DONT DO APLIA. it only brought my grade down because the tests are easy to get a's on.

Farrokh is very, very hit or miss for students. Either you like him a lot or you find him boring and uninteresting. Personally, I found his lectures insightful, engaging, and overall fun.

Farrokh is the man! This dude is always down to have fun and interesting discussions during class and will really go in depth in the material. Can drone a bit and has a very traditional style of lecture. People either like him a lot or really don't like him. Take with caution.

Farrokh is a great professor! His lectures are entertaining and informative. Don't bother with online homework, just brings your grade down. Tests are easy if you study.

He answers al your questions and is great at explaining what is happening. I hated econ 206 and barely passed however this class really made me like econ and i think it has to do with him.

one of my favorite professors at western! i really love him as a professor, wish i would've taken him for 206 if he taught it when i needed to take it. he's great, lays out exactly what will be on the tests, tells fun but useful/interesting stories. makes macroeconomics interesting for sure! highly recommend for 207!!

He's super funny and really interested in econ and clearly knows a lot. but the exams are hard, I would recommend going into office hours often to check in about topics and review a lot. the study guide he gives are really helpful, you don't need to do the homework option if you put in enough effort for studying the material.

Hes kinda a scary guy, calls on students and looks at them like idiots if theyd dont know the answer. You could tell he really loves Econ and knew his stuff. but he would take to long on certain subjects, so we ended up not having time to learn the last 3 chapters.

I would take with him again. You get zero homework and the tests are not that bad if you pay attention in class and study a little bit before the test. There were 2 exams (suppose to be 3 but we ran out of time) and an exam. Would DEF take a class with him again. He can over lecture and bore you, but he really wants to make sure you understand.

Dr. Kahnamoui is a great professor. He is very knowledgeable and caring and really gets you interested in economics. I would definitely take another class with him

Farrokh is awesome, he knows a lot about economics and really explains things well. He gives an optional online homework which is great if you are not a very good test taker. I learned a lot in this class.

I enjoyed his course very much. He gave interesting lectures outlining the European Economy. I came out of this course knowing a lot more than when I went in. He is always open for questions and does a good job explaining a boring tough subject. He only have 2 tests, 1 final and a project. As long as you listen and read slides you'll do well.

He is very smart, answered all questions very well. He has great presentation skills. The brainstorming sessions were very helpful. I will take more econ classes with him anytime.

This dude really knows his stuff and helps a lot in class or if you go to his office. Two midterms and one final and optional homework. Don;t bother with the homework if you are OK with multiple choice exams. He gives solid study guides before the exams, just follow them you will be fine.

The professor is very nice and helpful and always open for class discussion. I loved the passion he showed with regard to the topic. I look forward to taking more classes with him.

Farrokh Kahnamouiis a great lecturer, one of my favorite professors at Western.. He did a great job presenting historical economic theories. Two midterm exams and a final plus a term paper. He is also a very fair grader. I would love to take another course with him.

I really enjoyed the class, lectures were always interesting and he made sure we understood everything that he covered in class. I loved his passion about economics.

Kahnamoui is passionate about the material and answers all questions pretty clearly. Also he is very helpful and wants to see students succeed, would take him again, learned a lot!

I have taken both Econ 206 and 207 with him and he was great in both. Very pleased with the way he taught and ran the class. Helped me understand concepts in the ways I did not expect. Will take him again for sure.

Great professor, very engaging and knowledgeable. He was always available outside of class . Attend the classes and follow the power points and study guide, you will be fine.

He's a real good guy. Classes are generally fun and entertaining with him making a lot of jokes in class. Test are almost identical to the problem sets online which makes tests really easy. He also gives three extra credit points if you attend every class which makes it difficult to not get an A. Made me love economics.

This guys a boss. He's straight forward, articulate, gives good feedback and is willing and able to answer any questions you may have.

Farrokh was a great professor! He made the long lectures go by fast, and truly knew what he was talking about everyday. He was also very funny, which is something I didn't expect. Attendance isn't really graded, but the more you go and participate the more extra credit he gives in the end. His exams follow the study guides very well.

I've had him for 301, 303, 311, & 385. I'm amazed he's at a 3.3 Dr. Kahnamoui is a hilarious teacher & all of his classes are cake. I've taken him probably too many times but gotten A's in each class with little to no effort. Got all my WP points knocked out with him too. Also, a lot of material crosses over between the classes he teaches.

This is the second class I've taken with him and I'm shocked his score is so low. He is awesome! Funny and really knowledgeable. His classes are easy and he gives very specific study guides before each exam so as long as you study those close you'll get 80s and 90s on the exams. Written exam is cake. GReat class, interesting if you like econ.

I enjoyed this class very much, lecture were always very informative and interesting. He is really intelligent and gives very specific study guides for the exams. He can also be very funny when he wants to,

Truly one of the best CBE professors at Western. He gives great lectures and is a pretty entertaining guy. Gives you the tools to succeed by posting study guides and all notes on canvas. I wish he taught 400 level classes so I could take more classes with him. 301 consisted of 3 exams, a written test, and a presentation.

One of my favorite professors at Western and a real nice guy too. He knows a lot about economics and answers any questions you may have Class has extra credit for attendance and participation which can bring your grade up by one full letter grade just by attending classes and asking or answering questions. Will take him again for sure.

Kahnamoui is a great instructor. I really enjoyed the lectures . Whenever a question was asked he explained it in a way that was easy to understand. He knows economics extremely well, I learned a lot such that I am thinking about majoring in economics.

Excellent lecturer and a great guy. He brought passion and intelligence to the classroom. I learned a lot and will surely take another course with him.

He's a great guy. His personality is amazing. His teaching can sometimes be a little jumbled but he's so approachable and funny it makes up for it. He really cares about his students and wants them to do well.

His lectures are alright. Doesnt require attendance but if you go its 3% EC. Has 2 midterms and a final and his practice exams contain half the questions on the midterms. PowerPoints all posted online and very easy to study

He only grades on midterms and final. he goes a lot slower then other econ teachers. the class was easy, i only showed up a few times and I still understood the material

Actually took him for ECOn 206, 207 and 301 so this applies to all of them. Super lecture heavy and graded only on the midterms and finals. You have to read and study or there's no way you'll do well on the exams. He gives great study guides though and genuinely doesn't test you on things you haven't learned. Super funny guy with great lectures.

He kept the class engaged and did a great job of answering questions. He knows economics extremely well. I highly recommend him.

Kahnamoui is a very smart professor. His passion for economics is really inspirational and his expectations for the course are very clear. I loved the way he answered all the questions and learned a lot in this course.

I learned a lot from this class. I have had Econ 206 and 207 with him before and he was great in all of them. There were 3 exams, one paper and one presentation. If you attend the classes and read/watch (all lectures are recorded) on Canvas you will do pretty well.

Truly one of the best professors I have had so far at Western, knowledgeable, caring and funny. He covered lots of materials related to social issues using economic models. I will definitely take him again.

I really liked Dr. Kahnamoui! His lectures were definitely long and can be dry, but it wasn't a bad class at all. He gets back to emails really quick and is super helpful during office hours and lectures.

Honestly a great professor! As long as you pay attention in class and put in the effort, you'll ace all the tests. He puts a lot of effort into making sure that students succeed. He held two study sessions outside of class going over the study guides, which was super helpful. Definitely recommend taking a class with him!

I really liked this course. His knowledge about economics is really good. Three exams, and essay and an oral presentation make up the course grade. He gives very clear study guides if you follow them, you will do well on the exams. He is also great in his office hours and really wants to help you to succeed. I highly recommend him.

For me, he is one of the top 2 or 3 professors at the College of Business. He knows a lot about economics and makes sure you understand everything he says in class. Don't hesitate to ask him questions inside or outside the class, he is always ready to help. The exams are very straight forward, and he gives clear study guides that are very helpful.

A great class and a great professor. I will take another class with him in a heartbeat.

I am shocked at some of these comments. He is a great professor, very knowledgeable and caring. He went out of his way to give extra review sessions on exams by Zoom. He grades on 3 exams and 3 quizzes and quizzes helped a lot with preparing for the exams. I would take another course with him for sure.

The lectures were great, I thoroughly enjoyed the course. Dr Kahnamoui will be a great memory from my time at Western.

A very interesting course, professor is engaging and explains the material very well. He has a broad knowledge in economics. I learned a lot from him. Two midterm exams and one final exam and one essay make up the course grade. I will definitely take another course with him.

Cool guy, got carried away in lectures sometimes but it's b/c he cared about it. Great with words but not very good at illustrating examples on the board. You don't need to show up you just need to make a good enough study guide from powerpoints that you're ready for tests. Written exam was pretty easy, just spell things right and do research.

A great professor! You should pay attention in class and put in the effort. you'll do great on all the tests. He puts in a lot of effort to make sure that students succeed. He offered extra quizzes and extra review sessions to help students who needed help. Take him, you won't be sorry!

He sure knows his stuff and is a cool guy. Go to all the classes and read the power points on Canvas and the study guides you will do just fine.

Professor Kahnamoui is such a caring man. He made sure that everyone understood what he was talking about. He gave 5 online quizzes and 3 in-class exams. The online quizzes are a great way to prepare for the in-class exams which have a higher weight. Take him, you will not regret it.

One of my favorite professors at WWU. He is very nice and knows the subject very well. He truly cares about the students and want them to succeed. Two midterm exams, one final exam and several online quizzes plus extra credit for class participation.

I really enjoyed his lectures. He explains things so well, it makes them easy to understand. Make sure you participate in class (ask questions and answer questions), he likes that and gives you extra credit for it. Online quizzes really prepare you for the midterm and final exams.

Sweet guy, this was my second quarter taking him. I wish that he gave clearer outlines of the project we did together, but other than that I loved coming to his lectures. He doesn't put test grades in Canvas, which can be annoying. Just make a strong study guide from his outline and you'll do fine. Wish that I could take him every quarter.

Professor Kahnamoui is a great lecturer. He is very knowledgeable and caring. Three multiple choice exams and one essay plus extra credit for class participation. Exams are not hard as long as you use his study guides to prepare for them. I will take him again for sure.

I have taken Econ 301,303 and 388 with him and he was great in all 3. He has a very broad knowledge about many things especially economics related issues. He offers extra credit for class participation. I learned a lot from him and will take another course with him for sure.

The professor is very knowledgeable and caring. He explains topics very clearly and gives extra credit for participation. He is also very good at answering questions.
