Some part is tough but overall is okay, help you success in int. acct class

easy test....write too small on overhead..nice teacher

Nice and clear teacher u can understand wat ever he'll teach u but examz r really HARD He starts class on time, ends on time with NO BREAK at all, hard to pay attention with out a break cuz it is a tuff course....take him if u r a brilian student but dont expect for 'A'

Pay attention! He goes fast and uses all the class time. He's there to help, but you hafto ask. Funny guy. Don't fall behind in this class or you're f***ed.

He is the best accounting instructor. Pay attention to his lectures and notes. Review class notes and problems, that will help you do well in his exams. Marks exam fairly well. Go take his class, and review his notes.

Excellent teacher, negative respondents are idiots. Hard course.

Good instructor.

Good instructor but very hard. Exams are based on problems done in class but with a twist so don't expect 100%. He should assign additional problems as a guideline.

Very good and helpful instructor. Funny at times. Easy tests and quizzes--if you just read the book and your notes and understand the concepts, you'll do fine. Pleasure to be in his class.

Joel is a great! He really cares about how his students are doing and will help them at any cost

He's funny, and a good prof. Very clear and understanding.

Very easy-going and friendly. Provides great notes from an otherwise complicated textbook conveying information-overload. Doesn't believe in homework so uses class time to do problems. Tests are straightforward and balanced, but can be a little tough since question wording is different from the textbook problems. Expect a "B", but that is good!

one of the most helpfull professors around for accounting, tests are relatively balanced and very genuine marking of midterms. thumbs up!!

he's one of the best teachers in kwantlen. he helps students out, very friendly, good and clear about his lectures. tests are not that hard, if you fail it or get a low mark, dont blame him, cuz hes goood in teaching all the concepts covered in class.

this course is a fast paced and hard course and he is doing an okay job at teaching it. does some in class questions..first midterm is pretty easy..sec midterm was hard..but i would recommend him just because he's a nice guy and also his assignments are just for completion marks..even if u get all the answers wrong as long as u showed some effort.

good at explaining the lessons. no need to read the book. enjoyed his class. would take his class again if given the chance.

Great teacher. He reviews questions in class to make sure you understand the material and whatever is done in class is on the exams. Exams are easy if you go to class.

By far one of the most helpful teachers i have encountered thus far. Very approachable and does a lot of in class questions. Exams are a bit challenging and really test your knowledge but if you go to class and do the work there is no way you can do bad. Anyone saying this guy is tough has got to be joking. Your in college get used to it!

He is interested in having his students succeed. I think that he is kinda cute too.

He is a good teacher.

Great teacher! I had him for acct 1100 and I found him really helpful and easy to understand. His notes/examples in class really helped when I looked back on my work at home and when i was studying for exams! I would totally recommend him to anyone and I would definitely take him again in the future!

Joel is an excellent teacher! Explains everything well and is always willing to help you out if you don't understand. His tests are fair. If you go to class and do the homework there will be no surprises on the exams. I wish he taught higher level courses cause I would take him again!

He is a good teacher, and makes all the key point super crystal clear. As long as you attent every class and really pay attention in the class, you wont even need much time to study at home. I got A+ for ACCT1110 with him, and that is the easiest A grade I ever got....

The people who complain about this guy are the ones who are too lazy to do their work or don't show up to class, or odn't pay attention in class. This is college people, not highshcool. Good teacher.

BEST prof ever!!!I'll give 11 out of 10. Take him if you want to success.

aims at explaining the logic behind things. his lectures place heavy emphasis on the framework of accounting, rather than doing endless examples. probably the best teacher ive had at kwantlen.

Joel is honestly another great prof at Kwantlen.I went to get help several times and he was very helpful!!.You will get a good grade if you try hard in his class.Wish he taught at higher level classes.Great Prof but 1st year students who are not willing to put in the effort should not take his class.

Great teacher. As long as you put in the work, this class is super easy.

Currently taking joel and am half way thru my first sems from high school and hes awesome teach! After reading some reviews, they are biase bcuz all the bad ones come from the lazy people who get bad marks. I honestly just go over the notes before mts and read the material I dont get and I've got above avg on his mts and quizzes.

funny guy and has an even worse handwriting than mine. but somehow his notes are comprehensible. his jokes are funny. understood alot from his teaching, although the midterms are really hard. i'd take this guy again in the future.

Joel Rocks. His exams suck. They're tough, but they're questions STRAIGHT from wiley plus. He's extremely helpful and really wants students to do well.

Has tons of in-class work that force you to do problems and apply what he has just taught. Midterms and final will be somewhat difficult but very similar to the problems you have done in class or wileyplus.

good teacher and hes funny!! you do a lot of practice questions to learn the stuff

I enjoy classes with Joel, he is good at explaining. He treats the students with respect. He teaches what he's going to test you on.

He is a very good teacher. His exams are doable, and you know what to expect. Very generous in marking mid-terms and finals.

You take him if you want to learn. Joel is smart and no bs. His explanations are crystal clear. If you don't do well in his class, you're lazy. Don't blame the teacher for your shortcomings.

Joel ROCKS! So generous when it comes to marking exams. So professional when it comes to explaining course content. Lots of in-class exercises which really helps you absorb the material. plus he's fun. I would Definitely take him again!

One of the best teachers for accounting. This is the first time I ever got a B, this is not because he is very easy- but because he explains really good. I hope he teaches higher level acct someday too. God bless you man.

He knows the materials very well, and makes complex stuff simpler. He is very logical to explain questions. awesome teacher! Recommend.

Joel is a very fair prof. He can be funny and is very down to earth. He teaches then shows examples and responds to the class. His tests are predictable and he basically tells what will be on the test. Still gotta study tho because the material is quite hard!

Spring 2014. Joel is hands down the best ACCT prof at KPU. He explains everything clearly and everything you need to know in lectures, so you will know what to expect on exams. 0 BS in class. He goes through each step of the problem with you. You probably don't need to read the text book too. I will take his 4455 too.

Joel is a very fair prof. He can be funny at times. He teaches then shows examples and responds to the class. His midtermsexams are similar to class examples and assignments. He basically hints out during class what is going to be on the midtermexam. Still gotta study tho because the material is quite hard! (2 Midterm, 25,15%, Hw 10%, exam 50%).

Excellent Instructor. Takes time to write out notes in the first half of lecture. Does example problems over the second half of lecture (similar to exam questions). Its a must to take notes out of the textbook to touch on topics he didn't cover in class, but, for the most part, these are topics covered in course prerequisites anyways.

Joel is great professor. I liked how he would spend time at the beginning of every class and relate current events to course material. He teaches very thoroughly and gives good examples. Best professor i have had for accounting so far.

Joel is a great professor that explains concepts clearly. The material and questions he goes over in class are a clear indicator of what he is going to put on the midterms. Definitely recommend this prof. His level of accounting is high an engaging. A must-take

Joel is an energetic and enthusiastic instructor. It is very evident that he enjoys what he does. His instruction is clear although very paced and provides notes for every chapter he teaches. He also integrates a lot of practice problems into his instructions in order to help students grasp the material. Overall, He is awesome.

This man is by far the best accounting instructor at KPU. He lectures in an clear and engaging manner. The material covered in 3410 itself is boring, but Joel makes it much more tolerable. His tests are tough, but they are directly based off of material covered during the lectures. Be sure to attend every class and study hard and you will pass.

Joel is a great professor. His lectures are simple to follow and on point. He is always willing to help students. Also, he actually make accounting bearable with his great teaching style. As for the course, tests are based on material covered in class. Lots of studying is required to pass as the content itself is hard.

His quizzes and tests are based on the questions you cover in class so there's no surprises. Just study his notes and complete the questions in the textbook and you should be perfectly fine.

Very respectful Prof.

2 midterms, 2 quizzes, 5 wiley plus, 1 final. Joel was a good prof. His lectures were decent. He gave handouts every class on the chapter. Work was spread out fairly throughout the semester. Midterms were based on the exercises and problems at the end of each chapter. A few tricky things but the class is hard to begin with. Class requires work.

Joel is one of the very good accounting professors at KPU. I took advanced accting with him, even though the class is difficult Joel made it better because he is a decent teacher and is very generous when it comes to marks. He exactly hints as to what will be in the exam which is very nice of him. Take it with him, work hard and you will do good.

This class is easier than expected, or maybe he was that good. His explanations are clear and he gets straight to the important points. He makes use of the time really well. Quite funny too!

Joel is a great prof! I did redo this class b/c the previous prof I had was just horrible and I didn't learn anything with them but Joel made everything more clear. His exams are fair as they are similar to the practice questions so make sure you do those and understand them and you will do well. He is also very fair with his marking.

Joel is a very good prof, as long as you take notes and do the practice questions you will find his exams to be fair and similiar to those practice questions. Make sure to attend class to recieve the notes as they are not posted online, you need the notes to know what you need to study and what questions you should look at.

Joel is one of the best accounting prof at KPU. He gives out super notes which makes it easier to study during exam. His exams were hard but if you studied the concept and do the given exercise and problems, you will do just fine. He is also a fair marker and find that his lectures are not very heavy ( does not make you sleepy etc.)

Solid prof for 3310. You need to study for this class or you will not pass. Intermediate 1 & 2 are probably going to be the hardest classes youll take

If your not lazy an easy A. He will give you a very clear question list. Do that and that's it.

Joel does not use PowerPoints. He hands out notes at the beginning of every class. The notes include important concepts and questions that need to be completed from the textbook. He solves those questions in-class and provides the answers. If you review his notes and do the assigned questions before each exam, you're good to go! Would Recommend.

Joels the best, you will only see things done in class on exams, so theres no surprises, as long as you do all the practice questions. Theres 2 midterms (25% and 15%), final(50%), four hw assignments (10%).

The practice problems you complete in class are similar to what you will see on the midterm and final exams. As long as you go through those practice problems at home, and understand the material you will do well in his 3310 and 3410 classes. No surprises on his exams, as long as you study what he has assigned.

Tough class to do but easy to follow (only if he writes on the board properly. Not sure how it's working online rn). Homework was great practice for the exams. Enjoyed him as a lecturer because he was funny but also tied in concepts to real life applications. Make use of office hours if you need help with the assignments.

The class is very hard. However, Joel is a solid choice.

Ive had Joel for a few classes at my time at KPU. Id recommend him over other professors. The material is hard. Dont blame the professor because you did not study. Tests were related to homework and in class problems. Caring person and seems to genuinely care about your success.

As for me with a B grade, I read the book, but it was almost in like a hurry, I practiced WileyPlus video solutions ( not the excel ones), practiced the problems and excercises he taught in class and watched EdSpira Videos. An A grade requires more in depth reading and understanding, but, as long as you know the stuf he teaught in class, you r fine

Joel is one of the best profs for 3410 and 4455. Focus on the in-class problems and pay attention to what he says and you will be fine. The material for advanced accounting is hard so do not blame the professor.

Finishing up the last few semesters of my degree and up to this point, he is surely one of the best profs at KPU. Gives lectures like conversations, breaks down complex concepts, and asks questions continuously to keep you engaged. If you mess up, its because of your effort.

Joel provides clear outlines for midterms and finals. His exams are similar to the activities in class. He responds to e-mails, and encourages students to communicate with him even after lectures.

2 yrs at KPU, and Joel is my favrite. He is such a nice man. Gives lots of part mrks. Come to his clas, listen to his lectres, and do the hmwrk, trust me it's not hard to get an A. No srprise questns in emxs He dsnt point out at studnts to asnwr anythng which I hate about other profesrs. Gives you extnsns for assigmnts if you provide a valid reason

You must study and understand what he taught in class to pass his course. He is one of the best professors at KPU.

This class is tough. As long as you attend class and do his problems you should be fine in this class. Tips: pre read before class, ask for help if needed, practice practice practice and you will get a good mark. He is decent marker and explains the material well.

Good prof for accounting. Make sure your work hard and you will be fine.

Best teacher for intermediate accounting

best prof for this accounting

Come to class and do his practice problems and review his notes and you should be fine for the test

You need this prof for intermediate accounting

Joel is one of the best accounting professors at KPU. He knows his subject, he comes prepared to lectures, he is organized, he takes time to do exercises with us during class. His exams are based on what was discussed in class. No surprises, just straight to the point, and an excellent teacher. Would definitely recommend.

This course itself is very difficult, but the professor is extremely nice. He truly cares about his students. Even though I was under a lot of academic pressure at that time, the professor still cared about me. He is the best professor at kpu

One of the most amazing professors at KPU, I have had him for both intermediate accounting classes and now had him for advanced accounting. He was available for help and very caring. He always only tested what was taught in class, with no curve balls thrown at us.

Joel is one of the nicest professors I have had in my accounting courses. He explains the material very clearly during lectures and spends a lot of time working through exercises with us in class to help ensure we fully understand each chapter.
