if you wanna hear him relate economics to chess, take his stupid course

Bad explanations. don't ever take his class!! often make mistakes while teaching. very very bad professor!!

DOn't like him

I can't deny that he is a smart person but he is not a good, nice, responsible professor!! I don't like him very much....too aweful to attend his class...Oh, my godness!!

He has total disprespect for others. Has no idea about teaching. He can make others believe that teaching is not a noble profession. Steer away from him if you can!

This is the worst prof I've taken a class with in UofM. He is the only prof that will not give you any form of feedback before the VW date. He's just totally unfair with his grading. Lipnowski if you happen to read this pls change your way.

the worst, he is so lazy and unorganized, his explaination sucks, what you get is unclear messy notes. Moreover, he is a tough marker,you will get a so low score in test. Also, tests are really hard~~~~~~~~~AVIOD OR YOU WILL GET A BAD MARK

he knows nothing. so bad, so bad, so bad, avoid him be4 late.

He has strong preference toward certain group of students, but not race wise. For example, the same question in quiz, especially the definition explanations, missing even a single word for those he doesn't like, he would take all points away while for those he like, an ambiguous answer will give them full marks.

this is the worst prof I have ever seen. He never told us what he will put in all the test. No assignments no notes, and the practice online is useless. Besides, the book is crazy expensive. STAY AWAY, ATTENTION!!!!!

Boring. No notes. Confusing. He will go on and on about something and confuse you ... I learnt more by reading textbook and using websites. Final is worth way too much. If you don't buy the textbook good luck lol no practice tests either

He makes tons of jokes during class that are not funny. But do not skip these lectures cause you'll be lost. Forewarned though he has no notes so you have to do a lot of your own work

Never take it with this prof. he has got to be the worst prof ever. no notes and he uses the same graph all class and by the end you have no idea what is going on anymore. You have to teach yourself.

Going to class is useless with this prof. You basically teach yourself because he gets side tracked so easily and is painful to listen to when he is on topic. You can't follow anything he says and all we had were 2 midterms worth marks so if you did bad on those you were screwed. Also- he can't work a computer to save his life. It's 2014, come on.

I know i put the tag "skip class you won't pass" but honestly even if you do go to class and read the textbook you could still get a D. This prof is so unclear, confusing and encourages you to buy the textbook even though it is borderline useless. He made almost the whole class feel utterly hopeless and useless. My advice-TAKE THE ONLINE CLASS!!!

Very unclear and side tracked. Urged the class to attend a different section and "Read the textbook because he wasn't sure". I honestly have no idea why he's a prof. He admitted that the average was very low compared to other sections and grades got lower than the probability had you guessed every question. Stay away. Positive note - he's nice.

He should not teach any further for the sake of students.

honestly, this man is the worst professor I've come across in my entire life, no notes, gives us tests that can't in any way be matched to his teaching standards, he never gives us feedback after the tests, does not even request to revise questions with us, only comes to class following day to say that majority of us failed. makes us read so many chapters he wasn't able to cover, in a very short period of time, the myecon lab does not help in his case. He is very discouraging.

That's an awful experience taking his class. I suggest everyone not to take it !

While he seems like a nice enough guy, his teaching skills are very poor. No logical order or structure of any kind to lectures, explains background ideas too little. Tests often feature (useless) questions right from lectures, so if you come to class, decipher what he says and memorize the steps you can do well on tests. No final exam though!

I wish the exams would be matching to what he taught in class..

To be honest I am regret to take this course with him, his teaching skill is poor, he refuse to explain any questions during test. Sometimes he even doesn't know what he is talking about, his notes on the whiteboard is so chaos. Do not take course with him if you're 100% sure you can study the material yourself.

don't take any course with this man. If you miss the lectures you're going to fail. The text book is useless. The best way to pass his course is to take note of everything he writes down.

Messy notes, messy graphs. Always repeat what he said and unorganised. Test grade is the only grading scale....

I've never witnessed a more arrogant and self-indulgent professor than this one. Fortunately, the tests are easy as long as you memorize all the graphs he draws in class. I got an A+ and I still don't know what the class was about.

Lectures are rambling incoherent nonsense. Taking his class as an option after taking 3010, 3020, and 3040. Still cant understand a thing hes trying to say. By trying to dumb down problems for people with limited math background he makes the content exponentially harder than it actually is. Reading the textbook is no help as it uses the full math.

Dont take any course with this prof. He did not upload any slides, did not provide any sample tests and the exam even weird. If you missed the class and you only study on textbook, you will get lost on the exam

He didn't upload any slides. The way he teaches is slow and boring. He used a textbook that was written by him, even if you memorize all the stuff in that chapter, the exam still makes you feel like you know nothing. He is the worst prof I have ever met. If you want to get a good grade, don't take him If you want to get knowledge, don't take him

I think he is a good mand but He teaches topic as if we know everything. Every exam is long anwer question based on lecture that you need to draw graph and explain it. So If you don't perfect it, you will get somewhat close to F. More than a third of class dropped. Pretty surr there is other class do the Mcq for exam.

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. Lectures are an hour and a half of him just rambling on in a monotone voice, tests are long answer questions that are confusing, and asking for a better explanation for confusing topics goes nowhere since he simply repeats his unhelpful explanation.

Although I got a good grade from this class, this is genuinely the worst class I decided to enroll in. We were tasked with 4 assignments and 1 test on the final day of class. He does not mark any assignment and you do not receive feedback. Avoid this professor if you have the chance to because he couldn't even provide a booklet for the final test.
