I took economics in highschool and hated it. Prof. Guile made economics fun and made sure the tests and material were not to difficult to follow. The test were multiple choice and easy. You would have to be pretty dumb or lazy and never study at all not to get a B. I got a fairly easy A. Easiest and funniest Eco. Teacher at SCC!

Prof. Geile is a great economics teacher. His teaching style is so amazing that I enrolled in his micro class this semester. He really knows economics. He doesn't use a book or any notes when he teaches. Make sure you attend the days there is a quiz. He drops the two lowest grades. And study for his final!!

Anyone who says his class is easy is lying. His lectures aren't bad, but he doesn't teach everthing you need to know for the test so you really really really have to read the book(I cant stress this enough). And his test are extremly tricky and not as straight forward as other social science classes like a psych class. Like a previous person sai

For sure knows a LOT about subject but does not work hard enough to include students in lectures. He literally talks the entire period and then gives practice exams that have little to do with test. Study worksheets he gives instead!!! Curves grades and offers extra credit otherwise class would be doing poorly.

He knows Economics very well. But there are NO CLASSROOM DISCUSSIONS...all he did was lecture for 3 hours STRAIGHT each night!! but if you work hard, study, and read you can get an A

I took this class at SCC because I withdrew from it at UCF main campus. Mr. Geile made it MUCH EASIER. I don't know why everyone rips on Mr. Geile so much. I got away practically with murder in his class. His tests are really hard, and he gives a lot of quizzes you need to be there for, but he's super nice and understanding. Gives lots of extra c

He's not as bad as many of these posts make him out to be. He's not the greatest teacher but he's decent. He's VERY nice and also lenient. Yes, class drags to the last possible second, yes quizes & tests aren't easy, & yes theres homework on ANGEL but for being a college level course it could be much harder!!

pretty good teacher. yes sometimes his examples dotn make too much sense. but he grades homework reasonably, and there is usually enough extra credit give to help you on the test. class is boring but he usually gives extra cerdit for just being there. i took this teacher for macro and am gonna take him again for micro

His tests & quizzes are tough, but he is a good teacher. He explains things but sometimes tends to be a bit boring. Always available to clarify a point after/before class or via ANGEL. WARNING: Check his ANGEL site often! Gives essays/current events that help bring your grade up.

Mr Geile looks exactly like Wallace Shawn from the Princess Bride. If you're not an economics/business major, his lectures are rather boring, so it's fun to imagine him saying "inconceivable!" The class is nowhere as bad as his ratings seem. I got a B with no studying and I didn't open the textbook once. Take notes and it's all good.

The easiest class I've ever taken in college. Make sure to keep up with reading, and take notes in class, & check ANGEL on a daily basis-- his notes on there are very helpful. I don't understand how a person could do bad in this class, it's so easssy!

Easy class! Pay attention to lectures! I got an A and I did not even purchase the book! Study from Study Guides, it helps!! He does weird movements. But he is a very nice Professor! I enjoyed his class and learned a lot of things that are useful in life! You should deff take him!

This Professor is great exactly what you would expect from a college teacher, take notes and pay attention and if you have a problem he keeps his office hours to really help you. I have never looked at the book and I have an A. Just pay attention. Simple.

He gives extra credit just for attending class. If you go to class take notes on lectures and do the work there is no reason you shouldnt get an A. I never used the book and hardly studied:just went to class and took notes and got an A.

If you go to class and listen to the teacher you will pass.

HE IS VERY CLEAR AT EXPLAINING THINGS. MIGHT BE REPETITIVE BUT THE POINTS HE WANTS TO GET ACROSS ARE WELL UNDERSTOOD. I GOT A B WITH MINIMAL EFFORT. EXELLENT TEACHER.

His lectures go on forever and it gets a little boring but if you take notes and go to every class you will pass and probably with an A

Overall what people are saying is concise. Take notes and you will do fine. That being said, incredibly dry and hard to stay awake through the never ending lectures. Make sure you constantly check angel, won't tell you about assignments posted there. As long as you know this you will be fine.

Overall an okay teacher. Lectures are boring, but hes there to help you if you have trouble understanding. I never cracked the book and ended up with a B. TAKE GOOD NOTES and try to stay awake, and you'll have no problem passing

I took Mr. Geile for Macro Econ. He made the subject very easy to understand. He is animated and goes over the material multiple times to make sure it sinks in. Economics can be a very boring subject, he makes it very easy to understand and pass. Easy A.

This is a difficult class, however Prof. Geile goes through great lengths to make sure that the material is covered in the lectures. I find them very helpful. In fact I never cared about econ before & now I understand how it translates to real life that to Pro Giles examples. True the tests are brutal, but there is plenty of extra material on Sakai

Very easy class! I only wrote the notes in class because it helped me remember for the tests, but all class notes are posted on Sakai. The essays are very short and simple with clear instructions. He is very friendly and breaks everything down very easily. Should be an easy A.

Great professor. If you write down what he puts on the board and read the book it's an easy A.

Even though I received a B in the class, he was still very easy to understand. And no you don't need to be an economics mastermind to understand anything. I didn't exactly show too much interest in the class as it has no relation to my major however had I actually tried, (and given anyone puts the effort), this class is an easy A.

The best of the best. I passed. Take him

These reviews on here seem absolutely ridiculous to me. Look, if you enjoy learning and take college with even the slightest seriousness, you will appreciate Professor Geile. If you want to learn Economics, take him and you will not regret it. He is very knowledgeable, however, if you want to coast with an easy A, this is not the class for you

Great man. Determined for you to learn. Dont sleep in his class its rude. Gave me an extra oppertunity and am eternally greatful. Hard class. If your in it for the easy A dont take. If you want to learn everything there is to know about Macro Economics and are willing to risk the A+ take him.

Geile is great! He expects you to read and know the book, but that is expected since we are in college. His lectures are a little dry but he is very helpful and really knows his stuff. Attendance and homework are extra credit so there is no reason to fail the class. Highly recommend for anyone who is in need of a good econ professor.

You'll learn so much and everything there is to know about economics. I was interested in economics, but now I'm way more interested because I took his class. Yes there are usually quizzes every week, but do all the other assignments, read the text and his notes, and study for the tests. Do the extra credit. Got a B! Would take again.

Real college level professor. Gives great lectures to help you understand the material; has good sense of humor as well. However, the exams are full of tricky questions, easy to think you got an A on them and really get a C. Assigns four easy essays, hard not to get 100s on those. Also gives extra credit through homework and class attendance.

If you actually read the textbook, you will find is lectures very repetitive & wasteful. He'll spend entire classes talking about 1 basic term that takes only a little to grasp. Also, The homework is REQUIRED, some of it counts as extra credit but all being required. Liked the course, just personally wasn't a fan of the professor.

I ended the class with a 99.6 but this is because my minor is economics and it comes very easy to me. About half the class failed every test because you cannot just rely on the lecture notes. If you don't understand economics easily you MUST read the book and put in the work. His lectures aren't very clear but he has good intentions.

Great guy, loves teaching about economic. Will keep you engaged thought the semester.

He is very clear about what is expected of you during the semester. Likes to lecture but gives you most of what you need to know for the tests. If you read the book and do the homework, which is all extra credit, you will pass easily. You have to write 4 papers but they are only 500 words each. I wish he taught more classes that I need to take.

Geile does well at making economics enjoyable, it's a lengthy, hard subject and unless you're interested in social sciences, this class maybe dull just because you're not interested in it. Geile (Guy-L) is pretty transparent when he comes to what he wants, just do your work, take notes, read the book and you'll do great.

Professor Geile really cares about his students and tries to make this class enjoyable. Lectures are long and sometimes hard to stay focused on. He will use every minute of class. Just take notes, read the chapters he gives you, and do the connect homework and you will do fine in his class.

Nice guy. His class is so boring but he tries to make it interesting.

I struggle in this subject and still passed, he is a very lenient grader with essays, i got 100s on all of them. If you show up, pay attension and study you'll pass. His lectures are long and boring but if you show up take notes and study for tests you'll be fine. He cares a lot about his students, i'd take him again

Professor Geile is dorky, and his lectures can be pretty boring. So bring some caffeine with you. He genuinely cares for his students and hes very thorough in his lectures. Keep up with the reading, do the homework, and come to class every day and youll have no problem passing.

The worl is really easy and there isn't much of it. He is also a easy grader on essays

Professor Geile is a fantastic professor. There is a lot of reading, but the textbook structures the information creatively, without being overwhelming. He requires 3-4 essays, but on an article of your choosing. He responds fast and gives great feedback. Super understanding. I chose to take him for both Macroeconomics and Microeconomics.

The most engaged online professor I've had. Some lectures felt redundant but happy to have any lectures at all in an online class. Most of the work is easy if you get it. If you can gasp a concept and put together 500 coherent words then the 3 essays are a cinch. Exams are very concept heavy and final grade is massively skewed towards exams scores.

Professor Geile is an overall funny teacher who doesn't make you want to sleep during lectures. He also spends a lot of time writing feedback for your 3 essays (which I like because it makes me feel like my work wasn't purely for a grade). Your lowest exam grade is dropped (so technically the final is optional). Would take again.

Prof. Geile was a great professor to take in my first semeter of economics, and I took him for Macroeconomics. His class was fairly easy other than the bulk of the work which was alot of textbook reading. His grading was super clear and there is an extra credit exam at the end of the year to substitue for another test grade. Thanks Prof. Geile!

LOTS of textbook reading. There are 3 essays that aren't very difficult (500-1000 words). He has pretty clear criteria and isn't a harsh grader. He gives lots of resources, which is good for an online class. The final was optional, and it can replace your lowest test grade.

I have been out of school since 2017 but I took Professor Geile's class back in 2012 as part of dual enrollment coursework. Before taking this class, I was thinking I would do aerospace engineering, but his lectures and explanations were so great and articulated economics in such a way that I was inspired to work in finance. He is amazing

Professor Guile changed the course of my whole career with his inspiring and engaging lectures in Economics. I'll never forget it... its been 12 years but he changed my entire destiny and what I would be doing for a career.

Prof. Geile's class was a mixed bag - he has a unique teaching style, but if you engage with it, the course isn't too difficult. The workload can be heavy, but Unstuck study was a lifesaver for study prep. Overall, a decent class.
