Took Mr. C two semesters ago and was easily one of the best courses I've ever took. Quizzes are multichoice and exams were pretty hard. Easy "A" if you follow the lecture and take good notes. Only thing I didn't like much is he calls on students to answer questions and that usually made me look stupid since I was confused sometimes on the material.

COOL instructor. Got an "A" simply by following instructions and having a good time in the class. There was group work (6-8x) and discussions throughout the semester. The review sheets are amazingly similar to the exams so anyone with half a brain could at least get a "B" in the class. Kirk was also a nice understanding guy. A+

If you are anything like I was, you are having doubts about taking Accounting because you've heard how "boring and difficult it is". That may be the case with other teachers, but not with Mr. C. He's a very easy-going guy, who takes his time to make sure you understand this subject. And the work is easy if you just put in a little effort!

Professor Canzano seems like an okay guy but his teaching style did not work for me. If you're a quick learner who can think and speak quickly on your feet, this class might work for you. He calls names at random to answer questions. He also tends to pick on people more who struggle to answer questions.

Many in here that do not like this teacher or isn't passing is only because they don't take the time to read the book, go to class, and stay for S.I. He gives away his lecture notes, HW is due every two weeks or so, he tells you exactly whats on the test, Cengage website which is very helpful, plus S.I. Come one PPL, an A shouldn't be a problem.

Canzano taught great like 1A. Same grading structure. 1A was more work to journalize, but 1B is more of an analytical class, there was more math involved, not hard though, you just need a sharp memory. There were a few chapters that needed to go more in depth. Overall, if you read the book (like you should), finish HW, study, you will do fine

Take him! Granted, I've only taken his classes for my Accounting classes, which is my major, so I have no base to compare, but his lectures are fun, interesting, and educational. You will learn a lot from him if you go to classes. Reading can boost your understanding but I find it optional.

Honestly, the best professor I've had while in college. He knows how to teach the subject clearly for student to understand and adds practice problems in to help students really learn the material. So glad I took him and I know I'm prepared for intermediate accounting at csulb this semester

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for all business students, and those seeking to further enhance their Excel/Accounting skills. Be familiar with some basic Excel before taking the class (relative/absolute cell reference). Class reflects on ACCTG1A, so if you forgot 1A, review the first chapters of 1A book. 2 Exams, 2 quizzes, weekly Excel HW. Very cheap txtbook

I enjoy accounting but this class was a drag, I taught myself most of the material, he calls you out and will make you feel dumb! Not very good at explaining, every class is lecture!! He is a nice person and is organized. All my classmates struggled as well, I read and studied very hard and received a grade I was not satisfied with.

If you are not serious about accounting do not waste your time taking this professor. He loves what he does so he does not make this course easy. It is designed to be a tough course because he actually teaches you accounting. This is the only class at LBCC that i was taught to DO something rather than about something. Be prepared to give your ALL!

I took Canzano for 200A, 1A & 1B. His lectures are monotone sometimes, but this class is SO easy. All you have to do is memorize the online Cengage homework because it's the same material that's going to be on his exams. HOWEVER, if you want to be a successful accountant one day, you will need to do more than just memorize all the right answers.

Canzano is a great professor with tons of knowledge in accounting. He has many stories and advice to share as he has worked for the big 4. He accustoms you to think beyond the textbook. I strongly recommend taking his spreadsheet accounting class to raise your excel skills to a high level and apply accounting concepts to the real world.

He will work with the student but you need to reach out to him first. Due to COVID-19 class were moved online. He was very understanding of situations and helped me out as best as he could. I was very scared of accounting and had taken it 2 semesters before. Canzano made it easy to understand. I am looking forward to taking him for accounting 1B

If you're like I was & is nervous about taking Accounting, I promise Professor Canzano makes it very clear to understand! His class was a little lengthy but he made sure everyone stayed engaged the entire lecture. Honestly one of my favorite professors I've taken so far. He really helps you understand the subject in the easiest way possible.

He is a god amongst men. Probably the best professor you will ever have. Accounting is no easy class, but he makes it cool and doable. Extremely knowledgeable in basically anything business related and has years of personal experience under his belt. Only problem is getting put on blast in zoom meetings, but it will make sure you learn your stuff.

Professor Canzano is passionate about accounting and really knows his stuff. He clearly explains what you need to do to pass the class. Not a homework-heavy course, you are required to do pre-chapter and post-chapter assignments, which can be done in 10 to 20 minutes based on your understanding. He allows for one sheet of notes for exams.

His classes are not as informative as they should be especially for as picky of a grader as he is. On numerous occasions he has made off-hand remarks that boarder on insulting/discriminating. 10/10, would not recommend, he's lucky he's the only professor/class available to obtain cert/degree. He prefers pass/no pass grading.

He will pick at you and would make little remarks if you don't work fast enough for him. Participation is very important as attendance is a big part of your grade. This class is very test-based and he laughs at your face if you ask if he drops the lowest score.

If you plan on majoring in accounting, I would highly recommend him. His lectures are organized and planned out which makes the course very easy to follow. The attendance is like 12% of the overall grade, and his lectures are related to the tests. There are 5 tests, and lots of assignments. This course requires a lot of work so be aware of that.

Professor Canzano's accounting course was challenging, yet highly effective. His organized lectures, classwork, and readings, coupled with clear exam guidance and a one-sided cheat sheet allowance, significantly aided learning. Random cold calls kept us engaged, and his genuine care for student comprehension made a tough subject manageable.
