One of the best online professors I've ever had. He gives feedback on assignments and always replies to emails in a timely manner. The work isn't overly difficult as long as you give an honest effort. The project is broken down into pieces throughout the semester so as long as you're doing the work you'll pass. I hope this professor never changes.

Professor Charles is an absolute gem. Hes accesible always and responds quickly to questions, provides great feedback on assignments and most importantly it felt like he cared about my successes in his class. He graded work in a timely manner which is rare as some professors takes weeks to do this. Would take again over everyone else.

Professor Charles is a great educator! He sends updates before each lesson and motivation messages in between to keep students on track. He usually responds the same day, if not the next to e-mails, and grades with feedback are up in a very timely manner. Hes very fair and understanding and seems to genuinely care about the success of his students!

He genuinely cares about his students and their performance in the class. In addition to that, he understands that we all have families and jobs.

Dr Charles, is a amazing teacher. The assignments helps give you a better understanding on what is being thought in the book. He provides videos and real life stories every week. And he gives you feed back when he grades the assignment. Yes he does give a 10 page paper, which you work on during the semester so it isn't stressful at the end.

You'll need the textbook to do the online homework and quizzes (which are very easy), and you'll be graded on a 20-page financial analysis, which isn't much for 2+ months-- do it with one another person, it's easiest that way. He gives you his number if you want to reach him quickly. Cameras have to be on for lectures.

Dr. Charles is an excellent professor, the course was not "easy" per se, but he made a challenging subject understandable and tolerable. He's also very fair with extensions, offering a limited number of extensions throughout the course, I think 2 (hint; use them strategically on group assignments) The bottom line is Dr. Charles is awesome and fair.

Do not take this class unless you are ready to write a long paper (you may complete it as a group). Dr. Charles is a great instructor and truly wants us to succeed. He is awesome! Exams and quizzes are through a lockdown browser. I would absolutely 1000% take him again!

Dr. Charles' s class was easy, it gives you 100 for all of the discussions as long as you follow instructions. The only thing I did not like is that you must take all 14 quizzes using a lockdown browser every week. But overall great online class.

Great professor! Financial management itself is complex and tests are on lockdown browser, so if you want an A, you need to read and study the txtbook. The textbook is complex but the tests are very basic. There are self-assessments before every test so you know what to expect. 20-page paper due, but can work with other people if you choose. 10/10

Dr. Charles exceeded expectations with his motivational quotes, which were incredibly uplifting and profound. He will do everything in his power to ensure you succeed, since he wants all his students to succeed. The semester included a paper with good feedback, quizzes on a locked-down browser, and a textbook, making it an excellent class.

Dr. Charles has a passion and dedication to his students; my only suggestion is to study for your tests since it is 35% of your grade. Also, put effort into each assignment that is part of the compounded final project assignment that way at the end of the semester the workload is lighter; each assignment is 30% of your grade. Good luck!

Dr Charles is a nice man and he makes himself very accessible to students. He accepts late work if you warn him in advance and he will allow you second chances at assignments. He does have a pretty strict grading criteria however and his assignments can be challenging, but he is willing to help you should you have concerns.

This professor is great. There is a discussion post and test each week; sometimes, there are two chapters that will be due if you take the summer course as I have. About every other week, you will submit a 4-page for a company that you do financial research on; these papers accumulate towards your final project.
