Great teacher with clear mind. The smartest professor at seneca. Quick response, fast calculation, and clear-cut answer. Hobbies: TV shows, newspapers, and puzzel-solving, and...always late for class.
hard course, hard teacher, teaches too fast, tests are impossible
Can't teach..can you say POWER-POINT?! Tests are hard. He reminds you of Humpty Dumpty.
no problems here... do your damn homework before coming to class and he will help, otherwise dont expect him to walk you through the course and hand you a good mark. Courses are generally tough so it isnt his fault.
very hard marking, sometimes going too fast so its not understable.
This was my favourite teacher for the semester.He is funny and gets to know his students , they are not just ppl he teachers, i wish all teachers could be like him , (Take some lessons from Morelli plz Shum cause u need all the help u can get.
Brilliant, but arrogant. Pushes students hard. Approves only of those who can always keep up with him. Lacks patience when you don't immediately understand something. Uses his own not-always-clear shorthand on board. Erases board too quickly.
He is knowledgable!
Harder tests!
he is a good teacher, but his tests can be tricky so watchout! If he didn't write the test ask someone who's teacher did because he never even looks at them before handing them out and can test on something he didn't even teach
He is really clear on the stuff. Knows what he is teaching. Fun guy, but still haven't post my marks on SIRIS>.<(Today is May 6th)
He is very smart, but talks too fast in the class. If you are not a smart student, trying to avoid him. He is very lazy because he always posts the solutions or course-related materials on Blackboard late, or even never.
no question he is one of the best teachers in seneca, he would makes u understand all the stuff
Expects students to think outside of the box, he does want you to give text book answers - rather think in a rational logical manner so that you are able to answer questions in a clear concise and systematic manner
This teacher is very knowledgable and can explain concepts very well. He gets excited about teaching the lessons and tries to make the material fun and exciting for everyone, but you have to do your work or else you'll bomb his tests!
He is a lazy teacher w/hard exam to trick the students. No homework assigned;the easiest exercise demonstrated in class to make everything extremely easy; the hardest exam and tests. Return exams after 3 weeks just passing the final drop day. STAY AWAY!!!
Great Teacher!
He is a great teacher. His tests though are easier then some other teachers though. They are though still tricky. Except he relies a little bit to much on the powerpoints. He can answer though any of your questions though and do it great.
I would NEVER, EVER want to be in a class with him again !! He's loud, arrogant and annoying. He does easy questions in class and then puts tricky hard ones on the test.
Smart,confident,kind of humurous and would like to answer any of your questions. Easy marker, but sometimes his test is kind of tricky. Don't forget,he is a CA, maybe the future target in your career!
he is a good prof. he teaches really good, answers questions but his tests r kind of tricky sometimes. he comes late to his morning classes, like 70% of the time. but still i would take my future subjects with him. he is cool.
this teacher makes easy tests, he's a average marker, doesnt really give hmw questions, overall he a good prof. I wouldnt mind taking him again.
An excellent professor, always ready to help and explain, a good person.
Good teacher. Gives clear examples and explains concepts well. However, he is a very difficult marker; he will really make you work for your marks.
Very nice guy and excellent teacher. You can learn a lot from him. Very helpful and fair marker.
The most lazy teacher i ever see in college, almost give back the mark just a day before the final drop date. Very picky marker, only gives mark to the answer exactly match to the answer sheet. In his exam, you need to write as less as possible, because he is so lazy to read the essay answer. Need to reconsider when you have him for auditing.
Really lazy teacher. Hard marker
Such a nice guy, clearly teaching and easy marks.
He is a nice professor. Explains the material clearly and he is a very fair marker. I enjoyed and learned a lot from his classes.
this guy really knows his stuff. one of the best @ seneca. he explains well, does the problems on the board (while explaining how you get certain figures), gives reasonable tests, and helps students if they need it. i only wish i had him for the entire semester...
he is so so good, he explains very well, and does questions on the baord with the class, he lets the class understand where everything comes from. The tests and quizes are reasonable and he marks pretty easy, he is not picky. All those that say that he's bad, you guys must be crazy, cause he is the BEST
he is ok,gives a little hard quizes
Must take him for ACC 431 if you want to learn all the essential knowledge about cost accounting! Great prof with execellent lecture. He reads from powerpoint too; but the difference puts him on the top rate list is that he takes time to explain the powerpoint and combine with questions. A little bit hard on tests, good learning experience with him
Nothing to say about him. Best teacher! take it right now..
Morelli is one of the best professors at Seneca. He works very hard to make students understand the material. He does all the problems in the class and makes sure everyone understands them. If you are smart, by going to his class and paying attention, you will learn a lot and you should leaget an "A".
Amazing Prof! That's all you need to know.
He is one of the best. Excellent teacher. Becareful his tests are dead hard but easy marker.
One of the most dedicated teacher I have ever met!He is THE BEST OF ALL!!!Do not think twice of taking his class.Very knowledgeably approach to the material.JUST THE BEST!There are no words in this world that can best describe him.
ONE OF THE BEST TEACHER SENECA SHOULD PROUD OF HIM. very exsiting class.However his tests are so hard but try yr best he will give you fair mark
GREAT TEACHER!!!!!!!! His tests are a bit tricky, but if you know the owrk then you have no problem. TAKE HIS CLASS IF YOU GET THE CHANCE!!!!! YOU WILL LEARN!!
Tests are tricky but if u solved h/w - no problem. Very usefull
The exam was hard. but he knows his stuff and teashs well.
Great great great professor :) If you want to learn alot take his class
I LOVE JOHN MORELLI!!!I really dont get why some people make bad comments about him cuz he is a great teacher and person..He keeps class inetersting and he explains everything so well....If you have a chance take a class with John...you wont forget him :)))) xo
makes hard tests, and exams but fair marker. funny and very talkitive.always seems to be in hurry. kind of reminds you of humpty dumpty.
He is an excellent teacher. Like him and won't forget him forever.
no matter how picky you are, you will find his class worthwhile.
excellent
So far, I've only had him for a half (summer) semester. I have the opportunity to have him again this fall. Actually had to choose between two excellent professors, and I am excited for the opportunity to have him again. Incredibly fair and unbelievably helpful. Funny, interesting & encouraging.
Just take him to expirence a good teacher in seneca
He is a good teacher
Classes are boring if you have done your homework. If you don't do homework, he will do the problems in class anyway. Tests are fair with compliance with classwork. Midterm and final exams are very surprising!!! There is a lack of preparation. The class material is very narrow. There is a high probability of getting "C" in this course with him.
He is my favourite professor in Seneca.He is so nice,kind,and helpful.Just take him for your ACC431 and ACC533 courses.You will learn so many things from him.
Mr. Morelli is ONE of the best accounting teachers in seneca. He makes everything easy to learn if you actually read your book. Give this guy alot of credit for writing and explaining clearly the hwk questions assigned in the book in the board. I would like to take him again which i will :D
He is the best accounting professor in Seneca. Explain every question very well.
He is the best in Seneca.
He is an amazing teacher and has amazing personality. He is the smartest accounting teacher in Seneca.
BEST PROFESSOR IN SENECA! Not only will you learn managerial accounting from him, but you will learn business decision making and how to think like a manager. Very helpful, clear, and approachable. Works through many problems in class and stops to make comments and explain concepts throughout the solutions. Tests are not easy but they are fair.
Prof Morelli is intelligent, knowledgeable, confident, responsible and kind. He is one of the best prof in Seneca. His teaching style is amazing. His tests are hard but he is a fair marker and always motivates students to try harder. He answers all questions thoroughly. He solves problems in class step by step.
Harder marker than I thought he teaches well but his tests aren't great at all!
He is the most favorite professor I had in Seneca. He is very helpful and explain everything very clear. He not only solves the problems with you, but also guides you the way to analyze and solve problems.
Explanation is very clear and interesting, but tests are tricky. And I want to tell: Thank you, Mr.Morelli.
He is alright. Does problems from the textbook thoroughly. Sometimes doesn't post the solutions for problems. Does more practice problems than theory. If you like that then take him. Overall, he's nice and marks fairly. Final is hard not easy compared to the midterms.
His tests are hard and he's lazy. He doesn't mark tests on time. He is a nice guy and teaches well but his tests are all over the place, his review before tests are not accurate at all
Nice and fun teacher. He is also a last-minute type of person. Reading the chapters prior to class is recommended. Lots of self studying involved. Also, he's only 28 or 29 this year, at least that's what he told us. Good luck!
Good quality. Clarity and helpful.
The Best professor EVER. The course is not easy but if you attend classes and review the problems you did in class you will be more than fine. +he is very funny and outgoing
If you happen to be lucky enough, take his class he is a great teacher and a great person one of the best professors they have!! He can actually teach, practical problems as well as the book problems and he is easy to talk to. He will also engage the class, makes it fun. ONE OF THE BEST at Seneca.
had him for the second time. he spends the whole class doing 1 or 2 questions from the textbook but on the exams he twists and turns things and make them hard. he can't teach theory that well but is good at the math stuff.
Very good Prof. Knowledge, clarity, and helpfulness.
wonderful professor! Don't miss him, just take his any course!
Prof. Morelli always entered the class with enthusiasm. No class was dull and he made sure everyone was understanding the topic by answering questions together in class. You didn't need to do much reading of the textbook if you went to his class and did the assigned questions. Would recommend.
HE IS THE BEST!
WONDERFUL PROFESSOR
Professor John Morelli is the best one in Seneca. I LOVE John Morelli!!!!!!!!!
Professor John Morelli is excellent, talented and energetic. His classes are always funny, interesting and full of enthusiasm. He encourages students study hard and exactly absorb the knowledge. He teaches students know that knowledge is far more important than marks, but he also give students deserved marks. Very appreciated to Mr. Morelli.
very nice Professor!
He gives hardmarker but easy going in class. He's funny, approachable, naughty, but sometimes moody. He can lecture well, and tried to simplify complicated lessons. But he's getting better at making his tests easier, but still tough! Overall, his class is fun with all the 1950's feedback but he has to tame his swearing and indecent jokes a bit...
You will never fall to sleep in his class.
Very helpful professor with enthusiasm to keep you awake during long lectures. Attend every class and you will pass, and you will not be bored even in a class like Auditing.
Come to all his class, got an A without reading the book
Very approachable professor. I like his class. I learned a lot and didn't fall into sleep during his class.
The best prof in Seneca, you won't regret if you take him. Funny and knowledgeable, make the lecture under perfect control. Pay attention to his lecture, you won't even need to read the book
he is an awesome professor awesome lectures and good teaching methods attend class to know what can test question look like and make sure you read the exam questions 2wice as language is what he plays around with...... highly recommended
maybe he is a good teacher overall but his teaching style and all stuffs were not for me.
John Morelli is one of the best profs at Seneca. His lectures are great. You never feel sleepy in his class. He's a very smart person and he's also one of the funniest profs. I loved his class and will definitely take any other courses that I can with him. His teaching style is wonderful.
Funny guy. Test & exam papers have a lot of hints, which u should know how to read. However, I wouldn't take him again.
Clearly very knowledgeable, passionate and engaging. Enjoyed his lectures, learned a lot. Hard course and material. Sometimes, he uses profanities in class. Tests are long and comprehensive.
very tough grader. hard to even pass.
Just attend and listen to him and read, you'll be fine.
THE BEST FREAKING PROFESSOR IN SENECA. JUST COME TO CLASS, LISTEN, DO YOUR WORK AND YOU WILL PASS. HIS TESTS ARE ACTUALLY REALLY EASY JUST AS LONG AS YOU KNOW THE MATERIALS AND YOU STUDIED. HE ISSSSSSSSSSSS THE BESTTTTT!
Great professor! I transferred to IAF degree program later, but still, I would say that he is the best. He gave a very clear outline and helped us with many practice questions.
John is very knowledgeable and he teaches very well. his tests are a bit hard and his grading is tough too. if you study well and attend his classes, you should be ok with the course, however the auditing course is hard itself.
He knows what he is doing. His teaching style is awesome. I liked his sense of humor. He doen't pass any topic until he makes sure everybody is confident about that.
He is the best professor in Seneca. Learned a lot from his class. He is always being patience to our questions and elaborate with examples.
John is one of the best professors at Seneca!! I had him for managerial accounting as well, his lectures are very good, definitely worth coming to class! He explains a lot of problems in class and you actually learn. His tests and exams are very straight forward!! His class is not hard to get an A!! I would definitely take any course he teaches!!
The Seneca community is mourning the loss of John Morelli, after a brave battle with lung cancer. He will be deeply missed by his students and colleagues . A visitation on Thursday, Feb. 2, with a funeral mass ton Friday, Feb. 3. . Seneca flags will fly at half-mast on Feb. 3 in honour of Mr. Morelli. May he rest in peace!
