HIL-AR-IOUS! I luvthis guy. By far the nicest professor I ever had. Easy to talk to. Always willing to listen. Stays after class to help. Open about his own difficulties in the field of finance. Gives real world examples. As long as you follow his instructions you should get an A and you get to get his number in his syllabus ha-ha
hard class but grades easy Learning alot Sarcastic Helps after class No office hours but he lets you text em
Mr. Odisho is super cool :) He desires for everyone to learn but to have fun while learning! He is very fun to have as an instructor, and he cares that his students grasp the concepts. He spends extra time with students that are needing extra help. He's awesome. We need more professors like him!!!!
Best teacher I've ever had. You can tell he loves what he does and the subject he teaches. He wants students to learn while also having fun. Class isn't hard and he helps students get through any challenges they face. Coolest teacher!
Professor Odisho is the best Professor out there !! His is classes are the best and he funny he try to make class fun !! If he had another classes I would take it in heartbeat no Questions asked !!
Best Professor I ever had, easy class and actually makes lectures interesting! Professor Odisho cares about his students success. Take his class if you get the chance!
Professor Odisho is amazing! He really cares about his students and makes his lectures fun. He has minimal discussions and I would definitely recommend taking one of his classes!
This is truly a great Professor that cares and wants his students to learn more than just the course material but other real-life situations, such as handling taxes and finances that will help all of us. He understands that we all have our own lives and work to address, which is very considerate of him. I wish he had more courses to take!
I felt out of all the professors I've ever had, I've learned little, but with this professor. He connects real life/person events to the lectures. As well as talks about topics beyond the lectures that I feel are vital information for anyone trying to get a foothold on life to know. Best professor I've ever had 10/10!
Amazing professor that is passionate about the topic and really cares about his students. Professor Odisho was genuinely my favorite professor at Stan, and I would recommend anyone to take his course. His class sessions are actually interesting and full of life lessons/advice, and he made it to where everyone enjoyed coming to his class every week.
Super cool professor. Related all of the course material to real life examples. Wish he could be my teacher for every class LOL! :)
The professor is super chill and knows that we have others classes that we are stressing about, so he makes this class literally the least stressful. He's also very relatable with what he talks about in class. Just do the discussions and that should give you an easy A!
100% recommend him for this class!!!
best professor! He genuinely cares about his student's success and makes school a fun learning and stress-free environment. He also has a great sense of humor! The course I took was actually in person but I thought it was online. In-person attendance was not mandatory No textbook required I strongly recommend taking Professor Odisho's class
Professor Odisho is great, he doesn't give that many homework and wants his students to really enjoy his class and don't get stressed. You can easily get an A in his class if you do the discussions. There is a final paper at the end of the course but it is based on the discussions from the semester which makes it super easy,
Professor Odisho is a cool professor who can really connect with students and who you can be comfortable to speak with. The class was only 50 minutes long and does not require textbooks for his course. His lectures are chill and interesting as he can provide many real-life examples with companies. Overall, one of the best professors I ever had.
This professor is the best I have ever taken. If I had to chose one professor from school it would him. He is more than a simple textbook. Lectures and real world based & makes material understandable. Students automatically engage. Although attendance is not required, if you go to his class one day, there is no way you will not come back.
Professor Odisho is really chill and a great professor. Attendance is not mandatory but I suggest you go to at least one class because he is super funny and gives loads of real life examples. Expect to have a partner for all assignments but, they are very very easy to do even if your partner bails on you leaving you to do everything.
The best professors at CSU Stan.
Professor Odisho is an amazing professor to take. He gives clear instructions for the homework assignments and his lectures are easy to understand. One of the best professors I have taken!
This professor will always be my favorite. Don't even think about it, just take his class. You won't regret it.
Very amazing professor attendance is not mandatory but highly encouraged to show up to his class you'll learn a lot
10/10 professor. Class was not heavy nor light but I definitely learned a lot from Professor Ordisho. Cool and easy going man I wish the best for him. I would take other classes with him if he taught any others.
Really chill funny professor! Definitely do the work, participation in class = no final.
Awesome professor!
Probably one of the best professors I've ever had
Loved Professor Odisho! By far one of my favorite professors so far! Super chill and super laid back, his lectures were always interesting even with something as boring as financial statement analysis. He's younger so he can relate to us alot easier which makes the class that much more fun!
Great class and even better professor!! I highly recommend and appreciate the knowledge I learned from Prof. Odisho!
Best professor I have had in my 3 years of being at Stan. Professor Odisho's lectures are discussions on real life situations which make them actually interesting. He is a great and understanding professor, definitely recommend. I wish he taught more business classes!
The best Professor i have ever met in my life. Very informative and funny.
You will not be disappointed, great professor. Attendance is not required, but if you show up and participate, you will pass with no problem!
Great Professor, really knows his finance and gives real world lectures on finance rather than a book lecture. The homework is very manageable and gives you time to complete all work. A very stress-free class, would definitely recommend this professor.
You should differently take professor Odisho, because you will learn a lot about fiancal statements and more about finance. He uses a lot of real life examples that will help you understand more, I really enjoyed his lectures, and he is making them funny as well.
Easily the best professor I've ever had. Hilarious, great person and an all around nice guy. I manage my own salon and text him all the time for advice. He's so understanding, helpful and caring. He is seriously the nicest guy you'll ever meet. How is he not married? I'm going to miss having him so much :(
Great professor and very easy.
Professor Odisho is hilarious and loves to be inspirational. I would for sure take another class of his if I am able, he does give discussions for homework and they are not at all hard, he really just wants to have your take and opinion on the questions. Awesome Professor!
Professor Odisho is the GOAT. One of the classes that as real-world application. His advice throughout the course is awesome and very informational with his twist on it
Cool teacher who is lean back. Easiest class of the semester !
Don't pass up Professor George!! By far the best relatable professor! I wish he offered more courses. Super easy class, he wants you to learn and understand financial statements and things going on in the real world! He also cares about ducks lol!
I enjoyed his lectures he really made class interesting and gave a lot of current examples of finances. He has a great sense of humor and made finances interesting.
This Professor was honestly very easy going, every time I attended lectures I left with learning something new ! and his lectures are very Interesting as well!
Would 100% recommend taking his class. Easy going and lectures are applied to what is happening in todays economy.
If you are looking for a professor excited to talk about real-life financial analysis events, I highly recommend Professor Odisho! In all of the lectures he gave us, he stood up the whole time and was highly motivated to lecture and get us to learn the material. Thank you, Professor Odisho, for a great Spring Semester!!!
Professor Odisho is a great guy, who gives great lectures. A very caring and understanding professor, always enthusiastic to teach the class. Gives great advice, as well as engaging real life examples. Would definitely recommend taking his class!
I would definitely recommend taking Professor Odisho. He is a very easy going and understanding professor. I really liked how he would use current real life events and connect them to his lecture material.
Professor Odisho was a very funny and nice professor. He is very understanding when it comes to turning in assignments if you need more time. I would definitely recommend!
George is an excellent professor with a great teaching style. He will adjust the class as best as he can to help you out. He is chill with a great sense of humor. I am not one to like studying or homework as a base line idea, and his workload is great not too much or little. There has been no downside at all to the class. Highly recommend.
Nice guy nice eyes nice class
By far the sweetest professor ever had. Really understanding and compassionate and makes himself available outside of class. He helped me navigate my own personal financial challenges and is just a really incredible guy. He has such a great personality and there's so much life to him. I would actually show up to class if he was my instructor haha!
goated Goat quote: "Company implemented a marketing campaign that made them lose money and their customers. L riz" my guy!
Excellent professor, great teaching skills, and outstanding sense of humor. I enjoyed how he relates his class to real life problems making it easy to understand. You will not regret taking him. Highly recommend!!! If you're looking for a sign whether to take his class or not... this is it. Take his class!
Probably the only finance class that values class discussions where the professor would consistently ask the students what they thought or felt about a subject. I think I've learned more from Professor Odisho than I've learned from any other professor. It's like sitting through a Ted Talk haha - he's nice, funny and really down to earth.
Professor Odisho was very cool. The class assignments/ homework was very discussion based. The final exam is super easy and it was only discussions. I would definitely recommend this professor, he is super down to earth and funny, and he provides real life scenarios to his lectures. You do not need a textbook. 10/10 recommend!
Honestly if you ever wanted a professor that cares this would be it. He cares much more about you understanding information than he does about being a difficult grader.
He will roast you from time to time but he does it in a way that makes you laugh too. Never got called out by a prof and laughed about it until him. Really nice guy and funny.
Hiiiii!! I just want to say that this is the nicest funniest and most supportive professor you will ever have I wanted to start a small business for a while now but have always been on the fence okay now he knows who this is if he sees this LOL He met with me completely outside of class and helped me so much Undoubtedly the best person!!
Professor Odisho is an amazing professor. Any question I had to ask, he was able to provide a clear answer to help me understand the topic. I would highly recommend him to anyone and would definitely take him again!
Professor Odisho was an excellent Professor whom I could highly recommend. Any question I had for him, he was able to return a clear answer and help you understand the topic.
Attendance was not mandatory but I really enjoyed going to Professor Odisho's class. He made lectures engaging, easy to understand, and humorous. I would definitely take another class with him. Discussions were uploaded weekly and weren't very difficult.
Caring professor, great life discussions, fun & easy, low pressure, no textbook. 1 thing I do wish that more detailed examples were given on how to analyze financial statements. Perhaps because it was only a 1 unit class we received more of an overview of concepts instead of in-depth. Having said that I would recommend taking his class.
Professor Oshido is very caring and makes the lectures really interesting. The class is a one unit class so the material wasn't hard to grasp and the work is very straightforward. I recommend taking this course with him.
Attendance is not mandatory, but the class is very enjoyable. The class is very straightforward, but he applies the class in a real world context. If you work with him, he will work with you. The only criticism is his class schedule can be all over the place.
Great professor, and engaged with the students. I would say I wish that I did more in the class, but for a 1 credit course, I can't complain.
Professor Odisho is one I recommend taking! There are about 9 partner discussions you have to do throughout the semester which is very doable. His lectures are great as he teaches about real world situations and is a funny guy.
I appreciated that the Professor gave financial tips that were applicable to real-life situations but there was a level of assumed knowledge to complete the weekly discussions that we didn't go over in class. Class schedule was also a bit sporadic and lacked some communication, like the link to the syllabus remaining broken throughout the semester.
Amazing professor I have learned a lot from this professor and if anyone plans to take this class, you will have a blast!!!
Class is very easy and it's not mandatory. Professor is very laid back and don't need to purchase a textbook.
Professor George very smart and also funny. The class is very interesting and I learned a lot.
Professor has good lectures. He pairs the students up and you work with that person throughout the semester. Overall, he is awesome and would recommend.
Very easy going teacher, is passionate about the subject. The lectures were my favorite this semester because he was very enthusiastic even during a night class. Encourages students to participate in class as well.
Professor Odisho is a straight forward professor. You do need to be in attendance for every class, but it is beneficial because he provides examples of the financial statements that you will need to complete the discussion during the course. He will place you in groups to do the discussions during the semester, and it makes the homework easy!
Great profesor and very easy class. He is a very passionate business man and cares about his students. He is probably one of the most understanding professors! Would recommend taking him
He is a great professor! He is very funny and you learn a lot of interesting things in his lectures. Gives you until the end of the semester to finish all your assignments with your partner. This class is not hard at all so I would, definitely encourage you to take this course!
Great teacher! Cares about his students and understands we all have lives outside of school.
8 discussion posts where you share with a partner, very simple, you just have to hope you get a good partner that replies to their messages. Professor is super fun and he knows what he's talking about. Attendance is not mandatory but if people stop showing up, there will be a hard final in the end. An essay that is just all your discussion posts
Super straightforward professor. You have to try to fail, literally, in his class. He is super open and helpful. More worried about teaching real world and practical stuff.
If you need to take FIN3225 I would definitely recommend taking this professor! He is so funny and he loves what he does. He responds to emails fairly quickly and his course is very straightforward. Homework is only discussions, in which you are in groups of 2-3 and split the workload for the whole semester. Do the work and you will pass with an A!
Take this class!! Very easy and straightforward discussion(9 total) based class and the "final paper" is all the discussions combined. Everything is due at the end of the semester and no final exam or midterm. I feel like Professor Odisho uses this class as his comedic debut the way he be cracking jokes. Very fun class I would take it again.
The Professor is very chill and easy. The class is only for 50 minutes which makes it seem like the class is not worth it, but he is very funny. The lectures are actually very good and he uses real-world examples to make the class understand the course concepts. I am an accounting student, but I was able to learn something good from his class.
I wish he taught everything. He relates the course to real life to make it WAY easier to understand. Short discussions that you copy and paste for your final report + a 1 paragraph summary. Best prof!!!
His lectures are easily taught and explained. He clearly states what needs to be done within the course of the semester which is just discussions and your final project with your group partner, which is easy
Professor Odisho is an extraordinary professor whose compassion and inspiration showed throughout the class. You can tell he is truly sincere in his concern for his students. Navigating through his class felt effortless, thanks to his clear and straightforward teaching style. The way he explains the course content makes it very easy to follow.
The professor was organized and very funny. He gave presentation lectures for class and would have us walk through excel exercises with him. He encouraged discussion and would often provide real life examples. All discussions and final paper are due at the end of the semester. I looked forward to his classes every week! Highly recommend.
Never have I had a professor who actually cares and has experience in what he teaches. Professor Odisho is the type of professor that has had many different professions in what he is teaching, which is what makes him even better. He cares for his students and their education. He had amazing lectures as well.
Easy going class with 9 discussion posts and a final report with a partner. Would definitely take again!
Great teacher to pick for this course. He didn't require a textbook or access code to do the homework and the discussions were simple and easy to complete. Would 100% reccommend.
Professor is really great at explaining analyzing financial statements. Very comedic, recommend attending class. There is a group project but really easy to do.
Great Professor, funny, nice, understanding. Would take again!
Easily one of the best professors you will ever take, he has an awesome personality and quick wit so there is never a low moment in this class and is very clear when it comes to his lectures.
Very kind and fun professor. Clearly describes exactly how the whole semester will go and what needs to be done on the first day; and it's all extremely doable. No need to stress at all when taking a class with him.
Take him! Tells you to worry about your other classes more than his because his work is due at the end of the semester and is fairly easy. His assignments consist of 9 discussion boards, all due at the end. His lectures are entertaining and informative, uses real-world examples.
Wonderful professor. There are 9 discussions that you split between yourself and a partner, and the final paper is just to put all of your discussions into one long post. Everything is due at the end of the semester. Very understanding and just wants us all to succeed.
He's a chill professor. Only has 8 weekly discussion and a final paper, which is very easy. His lectures are informative but very easy to follow.
Great professor. 8 discussions total plus a paper. It is all shared with one partner, so very easy overall. Attendance is not mandatory, but if people stop showing up, there is a hard final besides the paper. Teaches real life situations not just what a textbook says. You will definitely learn in his class.
Well-rounded professor who can answer questions concisely! Always made lectures intriguing and fun.
Great profesor he makes the class interesting
A great Professor focuses on making sure students understand the concepts and uses real-life examples to expain them. Highly recommend taking his class.
Super nice professor everything was pretty straight forward and made it clear what was expected from the class. Very engaging as well
Very good professor would take again 100%
kind eyes and sweet come to class and you wont be disappointed
He's my favorite professor at Stan! He writes you amazing letters of recommendation that kinda make you blush in all honesty!! REALLY SWEET HUMAN!
Really great just registered for his class and hes funny, passionate and makes things interesting too. Id take him for any class
Amazing teacher he assigned discussions that you worth with an assigned partner which was pretty easy, great lectures, easy to talk to definitely wish there were more teachers like him!
Best Professor, he is funny and cares about his students. Class is mostly group work and lectures, as long as you do the work you should be good.
Take his class probably the easiest class I've taken in college. All it is, is 8 discussion boards split between your partner with a "final paper" which is a summary of all of your previous discussions.
Not bad at all
Very good professor, I took him fall of 2024 and is the easiest class i've taken this semester. It's a guaranteed A as long as you do all the discussion posts.
He is extremely knowledgeable about the finance field. You will learn a lot about real-world company statements and concepts to help you in business.
Super chill, fun, understanding professor! Def recommend!
I genuinely enjoyed this class. He is always joking, which makes the lectures interesting. You will work with one other person throughout the semester on the discussion posts, but it is very easy. As long as you do the work, you will get an A.
Good professor. Actually learned and understood things not like regular business finance class
As long as you do the discussions that he assigns the class is super easy. He just cares that you at least try your best and collaborate with your partner. Would definitely take this professor again if given the chance.
Really enjoyed this class!
Super enjoyable class, easy A. He makes the lectures interesting with jokes and by providing real world scenarios, and not just reading out of a book or slides. I recommend him for an easy going, but still knowledgable experience!
Professor Odisho is hilarious and makes class fun. Homework consists of discussions that are all due at the end of the semester. Overall, very chill professor.
Would recommend this professor for sure, super funny and caring about his class.
Very fun Prof. and easy coursework.
Very good Professor, made classes fun and engaging, would definitely recommend.
10/10 would recommend! If you want an easy class, definitely take this class. He is very passionate about finance and gives really good examples in the real world. He doesn't take attendance but his lectures are very interesting. If you do the work, you'll pass.
Very clear instructions for discussions and assignments. If you do the work you will succeed.
Nice guy. His lectures are his entire course. There's no homework. Just the final discussions and paper. Show up to class, don't be disrespectful to our professors time!
Super easy class and discussions are all due in the same day towards the end of the semester.
I would absolutely take this professor again. His lectures (though they are short) are highly engaging and make grasping the concepts and writing the discussion posts a breeze. This course is very stress-free!
Overall, I liked Professor Odisho's class. He is an easygoing professor and made lectures interesting by providing real-life examples. The work mainly consisted of discussion posts, in which you can work with your partner as to how you split up the work itself. Since everyone in the class wasn't concentrated in finance, it was an easy entry level.
I took this class thinking it was going to be difficult to follow, but professor Odisho made this class super easy to learn. By attending his class and completing all the homework assignments, you will be fine. Do not be scared to reach out to him if you need any help with anything. I enjoyed this class overall !
Odisho is a super easy going professor. He understands how busy the lives of students can be and shapes his class to that fact. He gave us the option of choosing in person or online. Choose in person to avoid having a final exam, and the group project is composing a paper of discussions done with a partner through the semester.
This Professor is the definition of a person who cares! He has some of the best lectures and is quite humorous when teaching which helps keep you engaged. If given the opportunity to have him for another class in the future, I most definitely will take his class!
Such a great professor! I really recommend he made class fun and helpful at the same time!
Professor Odisho was super nice! His class was not too material heavy and it was fairly simple to understand. He was super funny and kept the class entertained the entire lecture. Definitely would re-take!
Amazing Professor! You work with a partner, and together you respond to discusssions. At the end of the semester, you put all those discussions together and that is your final paper. Also he gave 3 extra credit assignments which was to attend a cultural event in the community, take pictures, and write summary. Easy teacher! I would recommend!
Very cool class. Lectures are entertaining. Class is not mandatory.
Very easy class to take. Attendance isn't mandatory and lectures are fun.
Excellent professor who makes complex concepts easy to grasp and keeps the class enjoyable. His teaching focuses on connecting lessons to real-world applications and preparing students for future careers. He even allowed us to take the course entirely online, but we all attended the class in person because of his outstanding teaching style.
Insightful and Humorous. Perfect example of what a professor needs to be.
I haven't received my grade yet, you have to wait till the end of the semester. It is all taken at your own pace if you take him online. He is very nice and it was a very easy and fun class to take. You get a partner and work on all the assignments together. I learned a lot and got lucky to have a partner who is good at communication!
This professor has a gift—Every lecture felt like a conversation that made the material click. The lecture had me thinking, “Why isn't this guy on a podcast?” He makes hard topics feel simple and keeps the class alive with humor and clarity. You'll learn and laugh. God bless him—seriously, the man's built different.
Amazing guy, would highly recommend him! He made lectures that were interesting and entertaining. Funny guy and provides a clear format about the class structures. 10 weekly discussion assignments, with the final assignment is just to put all discussions together and provide a final summary!
Very down to earth, you can tell he enjoys the subjects that he teaches about. Did a great job of making information relevant and interesting. Also was flexible with attendance/ due dates.
To be honest, this professor is one of the best professors I have ever had. You only do discussion posts, and half of you write your opinion, no matter what it is. If you want a laid-back class take him.
Easy professor and few assignments !
Every discussion was pretty easy to do.
He really makes his lectures entertaining. Really recommend this professor you will enjoy it and makes it fun.
Awesome professor, learned a lot from his lectures. Be sure to do your assignments with your partner and you're set!
He's a very kind teacher.The class overall was easy and interesting. He is willing to help and give good examples if you have any questions.
He is such a great teacher! His lectures are super easy to understand and he uses many real world examples to help you understand the concepts. He's very time understanding. He does have you work in groups but its nothing hard. Overall a very great teacher!
First of all, great person overall. He's very nice and all around a very easy going professor with REAL world experience. He does not just read off a textbook and assigns group discussions or anything unrelated to finance. His lectures actually teach you what is going to be expected from you in the real world but he makes it very relatable.
He's a pretty relaxed professor who is funny and really good at responding to whatever questions you might have. The assignments in the class are pretty easy. They are group assignments but if you have a group member not doing their work he doesn't count that against the rest of the group.
This professor is not difficult he understands life outside of school the work he assigns is manageable and not difficult would definitely recommend thank you Professor!
Professor Odisho is very understanding and always willing to help when you're struggling. He explains things clearly and makes sure everyone is on the same page. You can tell he really cares about his students' success, which makes the class a lot less stressful and more enjoyable.
One of the best professors I've had. Very understanding, genuine, and clear in expectations. The coursework was straightforward and manageable.
Professor Odisho is great! He truly understands the standpoint of being a student and tailors his course to not be overwhelming for being a one unit course. His lectures are short but very interesting with real world examples from his professional career. Homework is very manageable.
This professor is awesome! I would definitely take this class again. The lectures were super interesting, especially when getting into the realities of financing. Highly recommend!
Enjoyed this class and the topics we learned! Workload was manageable and easy to keep up with. Would definitely recommend taking a class with him!
I was worried to add on a sixth class this semester, but I am so glad I did. Odisho is an amazing professor and gives you more than enough time for assignments. Could not recommend enough.
He taught in a way that was easy to understand and used real life examples to explain what he was teaching.
Professor Odisho was an incredible instructor who explained concepts clearly, stayed organized, and made the course genuinely engaging. He was always supportive and responsive, and I learned a lot because he truly cares about his students success.
Professor Odisho is super fun to have as an educator. Financial statements can be really boring and the field overall can be unengaging, but he uses real world examples and current events to get you to care about the world of finance. He went on small tangents about business practices that opened our eyes to how some businesses really work!
This professor is very nice, if you're someone who stresses about your course you'll be fine with him. As long as you show up to class and pay attention you should pass just fine.
