If you do the work, this class is a breeze.

This professor is the best at OCC. He has helped me so much....he is GREAT!

Somebody said below that if you do the work it is a breeze, what work? there is no work... the tests are simple, the paper is a joke, and there is no homework. Simplest class I ever took...

His teaching methods make it easy for you to understand the subjects. Go to class, take notes, and do the presentations and you'll pass.

awesome teacher and very nice to students. he was really helpful on an individual basis too

most of his classes are just memorizing terms. the actual class can be boring, but if you learn terms better than conceptual theories, it can be a blessing. very easy if you can learn from flash cards...

Prof. Gordon is very helpful. He is interested in making sure everyone passes.

the beat teacher i ever had..

A very chills a laid-back teacher. The tests are easy as long as you study a bit. Highly recommended.

the best teacher

He makes everything very clear, if you can sit through listening to it at least 3 times. I think he likes to hear himself talk, over and over again. He's an easy teacher, just really boring.

He starts his lecture by saying, "we have a quiz next week." Then proceeeds to define all the vocab terms on the quiz. Next week, time to take the quiz...all the same exact vocab terms are on the quiz, you just have to fill in the term by looking at definition. Easiest class!

He's a nice guy, a little slow, but very fair.

He is a nice and sweet teacher! Take his class!

Overall he's a good teacher. He doesn't really like to answer questions if he thinks you're trying to stump him (even when you're not).

He is a very helpful and nice teacher. His lectures are very straight-forward and you will learn alot from him.

Good teacher. Very smart, knows exactly what he is talking about. Learned a lot from him. Highly recommended if you are interested in marketing. Quizzes are easy if you memorize vocab words. Tests moderate-just study well from the books and notes. Will take him next sem. for BUS 100

first class taken at coast and man was it easy, take this class for an easy A unless your a complete idiot.

Very easy teacher, and class. You basically just study the terms in the chapters, and thats what he lectures on. Very cool guy...he may seem like a dick at first, but after he warms up to the class you'll end up loving him! Highly recommended!

he seems like a really good guy and he teaches very well and the tests are very striagtforward. highly recommended

He spemd the whole time just going over the vocab words. Lots of quizzes but there really easy. He can be very boring at times so dont take his class too early.

Cool Guy

it's a pretty easy class but the dude is so boring you kinda feel sorry for him at times. if you're one of those people that needs to hear a definition 8 times in slow motion to understand it, then this is the class for you. the rest of you, bring a red bull so you can stay awake.

Very nice and knowlegable guy but a very boring speaker. Learned alot though.

Excellent teacher. He explain important concepts really well. The tests are basically based on definitions. The group assignments arent hard either as long as your other group members are reliable. I personally received an A with minimal effort. Great guy and Im taking his econ 100 class next sem.

Don't buy the book, save your money. Everything is given in class. Easy class

REALLY GOOD JOB MR. GORDON!!! EASY UNDERSTANDING CLASS FOR ALL LEVEL OF ENGLISH KNOWLEDGE..

i wasnt interested in business at all before this class but he made it pretty interesting and hes actually really helpful, you can tell hes a good guy, i totally recomend taking any of his classes, and its not hard to get an A

Pretty Easy Class

VERY EASY!!! he goes over all the definitions that will be on the quiz before. the only hard part is that you have to write notes while he is talking. VERRY EASSSYY!!! everyone in the class got "A". we were supposed to have 2 projects, but didnt even do the second one, and the first one, he just gave an "A" if you did it. EASY EASY EASY

Easiest class ever. I think everybody in the class got As. Couple of easy projects that do not take that much time and you will get A on them probably even if you do not do anything. Tests are simple. Tells you exacly what he wants. Do not take if you are interested in the topic because you will not learn much. But it is very easy A

he's a smart professor and he's interesting. if you need help, he is always willing to clarify. if you apply yourself, you'll get a good grade. he's very fair

like what everyone else says...EASY! the lectures are boring but so what, ur pretty much guaranteed an a and u end up learning a lot and getting to know ur classmates a lot better. great guy!

Yes, this is an easy class and yes, he does often repeat himself three to four times. Overall he explains clearly and grades fairly. Plus when he repeats himself it only benefits you. So what if he is a little busy, we all have lives to go on with. Most projects are in groups that he choses. If you don't like group grades or group projects, don't t

nice guy, easy class

LECTURES ARE BORING, AS IN ANY CASE. THE TESTS ARE EASY, REALLY NO HOMEWORK, BUT A LOT OF GROUP WORK. OVERALL A GOOD CLASS TO TAKE.

Can get boring sometimes but the things he talks about are really interesting. The class consists of 4 group presentations, 4 exams (drops 1) and 1 research paper. Gives you study guides and tells you exactly what's going to be on the test. VERY easy class and great teacher!

There are 4 group presentaions and 2 exams which are easy. His class is interesting, but sometimes boring. His class is good if you are a international student. He talks and explain clearly.

GREAT GUY!! Lectures can be a bit boring, but he tells you EVERYTHING that will be on the quizes. Quizes are VERY easy if you pay attention in class. He takes attendance sometimes, but I missed class 4 times and I still got an A in the calss. We had 4 group presentations which were simple. EASY A!!!

Easy A

you dont HAVE to go to class but you'd be screwing yourself. 3 oral group presentations, grades so easy, dont work too hard on them, he gives everyone full credit if you do a decent job, midterm, paper and a final. papers not worth that much so dont try to hard on it.Tests are kinda hard, just pay attention to notes he puts on board and your good

Snoozefest. everything in the class is extremely easy except the final. So study for the final and you will get an A

Does a good job of integrating social, political, and contemporary issues into otherwise mundane material for non-Business majors. Has a very solid, to-the-point style of teaching that I found refreshing and useful. Overall, the class is quite easy as long as you study the key points in the book and pay attention in class. Recommended!

Great teacher, easy class. Only complaint is everything was group work and everyone in the group received the same grade. I was stuck doing all the work in most of my groups because the work others submitted was completely inadequate (contributing 2-3 sentences to a 3 page paper). Ended up with an A... just be prepared for retarded group partners.

Prof. Gordon is really smart, and he knows his stuff really well, but you're gonna HATE the lectures.Not everyone shows up to class because Gordon is extremely smart about Business, but isn't the most interesting person to listen to.But the exams are easy to pass. Just study prior to taking a test, and you'll be fine.

good class, nice guy, east tests

I've taken many of Professor Gordon's classes an I feel that he is one of the best professors at Orange Coast College. His lectures are always interesting and he always finds a way to bridge the instruction material with current events. I strongly recommend taking his classes if you are want to get into international business!

He is a great teacher! I definately recommend him! His tests are easy if you study the study guide. Not much homework. There are group projects that are easy enough to do it by yourself. His lectures are very fun to listen to and he has a great way to grab you attention. I got an A even with one bad test grade!

Gordon is awesome. Great dry sense of humor. He only counts 3/4 of your tests, 4 easy group assignments that you could put together right before you go up and get a perfect score, and one individual assignment that a 5 yr old could do. if you go to class you dont need the text. tests are easy if you study the study guide. take this class!!!!!!

Professor Gordon is the most intelligent, passionate and witty professor at OCC. I took BUS100 with Zellerbach and dropped due to boredom. Gordon made business interesting. So interesting, I took it on a Friday morning with no whining. Learned alot about the global economy, trade and international business.

Easy tests, you don't even have to read the book, just listen to his lectures. Few presentations about entrepreneurs, and weekly e-mail assignments. Easy A.

I say this with sincerity when I mention that professor Gordon is one of the most intelligent and extremely helpful teachers that are on the OCC campus. Unlike most teachers, professor Gordon takes his time to make sure that his lectures aren't babbling contents that may bore students. I felt that he takes his time to go deep! very good teacher!!!

I think he is a great teacher. I find his lectures easy to pay attention to because they cover exactly what will be on the test. If you ever have questions he will happily answer anything. I just studied the study guides and did the group work and got As no homework which is a plus. Overall I would definitely recommend him.

Good teacher! Keeps it simple, it is a intro class people. Flash cards are key! Study and remember your flash cards and you'll get an A!

Super easy class. But you still have to put in the effort. Lectures were impressive, tests were clear and simple. I really enjoyed to course.

he is good teacher , class was fun , i learned a lot of nice things

Easy A class. Tests are short answers. Just study lecture notes and book's definitions. There were a few in class presentations, which he graded easily. He doesnt use Blackboard, missed a few one-day/week-class, and he doesnt know how to use time wisely... But overall, he's OK.

Professor Gordon is a great guy, he's very liberal but in a funny way, i'm republican and I wasn't offended. His tests are really easy and doesn't grade harshly on the presentations. Only problem is trying to stay awake in class but he lets you text and use your laptop if you have one. To ace his class just study the notes, you barely use the book.

Class is TOO easy. Do not bother buying the textbook because he gives you a handout each week on what we are going to do and all the terms that are going to be on the test. The test consists of vocabulary words where he gives you the definition and you just provide the term. It's THAT easy. 3 group projects that he grades way easy on. :)

Class seemed easy. Study hard for first three test. Gives a total of 4 test, and drops the lowest score, if you come to all classes.

I thought his class was very interesting...but my friends in the class thought it was a bore. He is very funny at times, and he gives a lot of breaks in between his 3 hour classes. He gave our class 2 tests ( one was short answer format, the other M/C) and 4 presentations. I learned a lot about public speaking and business of course. Study a bit= A

great class. learned a lot about energy and the environment

None.

awesome teacher ! really interesting class but may get dull at points. you need to do well on the midterm (fill in the blank) and final is a lot easier (multiple choice). overall an awesome teacher :) you'll enjoy his class a lot !

EASIEST HONORS CLASS EVER. I loved Prof. Gordon's class! He's passionate about business and tells you a great deal of trivia and random stuff going on in the modern day. Very easy grader! Overall, I learned a lot. Either show up or buy the book. Study and do well on group assignments you'll get an A+. I wish he offered other classes! :(

Easiest class ever. Just memorise the definitions in the study guide and bring your business common sense for tests. Easy A. Monotonous, passionate, funny. Ask and he'll explain. Any further qns, office hours are good too. Really nice guy; fatherly.

Best BUS class! A class that was easy and helpful. I did learn from Professor Gordon. Even though he was a little bit slow at grading, he grades easily. :) I enjoyed this class! Take it.. You won't regret it. Easy and fun class! Plus it's honor! What else can you ask for? ;)

Class was super easy. All you have to do is memorize vocab and use common sense. 2 group projects. He definitely knows his stuff. If you ask, he knows practically everything about politics and business.

This class is not super easy. There are group presentations, which are, but tests and quizzes require hard work. He is an easy grader. However, tests and quizzes are fill-in-the-blank. It's a lot of memorization. Professor Gordon grades slow, but he is a fatherly figure & only looking out for your best interest. You get what you put in.

An easy class if you put in the effort. There were three group presentations, four true/false quizzes, a short answer midterm and final, and a research paper. Professor Lee can be quite unorganized and tends to lecture on exam material the last minute, so stay up to date yourself or prepare to study two new chapters the night before an exam.

Super knowledgeable and informative. He is a kind and generous man that comes off a little abrasive at first. He's not there to mess around. Do your work and he will reward you. A quality presentation is important.

Tests are short answer and fill in the blank with vocab, and 5 FRQ based off of the book you have to read. He's a pretty lenient grader with the FRQs though. Just read and you'll be fine. Memorize vocab. It makes tests easier. There's no word bank. He has interesting topics in class and shows some funny videos. Not a bad class to take.

Professor Gordon made this class as entertaining as possible and has every intention of helping you succeed. I would advise anyone to take his class no matter what their major is.

For the honor program, the test is essay from a book and fill in the blanks. Just learn from his lecture and don't miss the class. He will give a list of things you will need to study and sometimes he gave out the exact questions in the lecture. A is easy as long as you study well. Cons is no extra credit is given and his pace is slow.

I took the honor class. His lecture is very slow paced and suddenly can change really fast. There is no extra credit. There are 2 books for honors. One is needed for the essay exam and the other for the blanks. There are only 2 exam and he give the list of what you need to learn. It is all taught in class. A is quite easy as long as you study well.

By far the best professor I've ever had. The honors section was somewhat challenging, but if you study hard you'll get an A. You'll learn a lot from him.

Love this guy & his subtle sense of humor, I would take this class for a whole year if I could. For a three hour long class he kept it interesting with a perfect balance of lectures and videos. There's 4 group presentations that you will have to do, and 2 cumulative exams. Easy A if you're good at projects. Study your vocab for the exams.

Gordon is a laid back and really cool guy, he is really easy to talk to and is very knowledgeable about a variety of topics. His honors class is super easy. Consists of 4 group presentations, (easy grader) a midterm, and final (easy, basically just all vocab). No extra credit given though. Lectures are pretty boring, but managable.

I took his summer coarse. So its the normal coarse,in just 6 weeks. So reading is mandatory is you want to pass. Over all, class is basic. There are 2 group projects (4 if you take in fallspring semester) and 2 tests. The midterm and the final, which is not accumulative. The amount of work is fairly minimal, but you have to read to pass

This professor is definitely respected by students. Very funny guy and sarcastic humor made the three hour lecture a pleasure. 2 group projects and tests reflect the study guide. Takes attendance.

He is so nice and helpful. I have ever taken his classes two times because I really respect him. There are 4 presentations, 2 exams, and 1 project. If you follow whole his lecture, you will get easy A.

He's a very easy graded. If you are thinking of taking this class, just do honors, it isn't much more work. We had a midterm, a final and four group presentations. My group was terribly prepared for the first presentation, and we still got an A. The midterm&final are easy A's too, as long if you study hard for them. It's not difficult. Take honors!

Gordon is a very good professor. I took him for BUS 100H Winter 2016 Intercession. There are 4 group projects, groups are assigned randomly. All the projects are 5-10 minute presentations on different business topics assigned to you. Tests are basically memorization, I recommend making flashcards. If you're honors, there are easy essay questions.

great professor his class are interesting. easy A. he gives you a sheet of words you need to study. if you study you can easily pass. honestly you dont even have to show up. if you study the words you'll do fine. i should have taken HONORS. honestly all they had to do is 4 presentation with groups didn't seem to hard. study definitions first.

This teacher is extremely witty, clear, and invigorating. He is very clear on what he wants, and he uses lots of external speakers and youtube videos to make the class interesting. The lectures that he gives don't feel too slow because of his amusing teaching style. Definitely take this prof for an easy and FUN A.

Great professor who knows what he is talking about. TAKE HONORS! He might seem like a professor that grades strictly, however, his grading is really easy.

Amazing guy, very knowledgeable, took him both for his intro to business (take honors, its basically the same as regular) and international marketing, wont have a hard time getting an A

Took 3 different courses with Gordon, each course discusses current events relating to business. Provides study guides for each exam that are "very similar" to the exams. The remaining percentage of your grade is through group projects in which you can pick interesting topics. One of those professors who truly teaches for the students, not salary.

Prof. Gordon is a solid choice. His lectures are relevant to the current events and he gives a lot of real-world examples of the business topics from the book. He is very clear about what he wants you to know for the test and makes sure to cover it in his lectures. Also, he appreciates students' opinions and likes class discussions.

Great guy. Uses lots of real examples to demonstrate points. No homework besides reading his notes. Has Study cards and organised material. Has breaks in between classes. Exams are straight forward. Listen to him during classes. Honors are earned not given. Very open guy, loves seeing participation. Always fun to be in his classes. Good luck!Enjoy

Professor Gordon is an amazing professor. I took his Bus100H class over the fall 17. His lectures are current, interesting and informative. I am a business major as well as a business owner and really learned a lot in his class. He cares about his students and as long as you are independent and put in the work you will get a good grade! Take him!

Amazing professor. Expect nothing less from him.

Professor Gordon is an amazing professor! I took him for intercession and he made his lectures very interesting. You do have to study a little bit for his tests but overall his tests are pretty straightforward (flashcards were very helpful for me) There are group presentations but the topics he chooses were really interesting so they were fun to do

Take honors- you end up doing two extra group projects and an easy essay on each of them for the exam. Content is really straightforward, take notes in class and study for 90 minutes to an hour before exam and you are in for an A. He is passionate about his lectures. He will inspire you to do great things beyond his class. He knows everything...

Take Honors- easy extra work that is worth trying to get honors recognition. He brings in guest speakers that are cool and connected into their industry. He's admired by all and wants to help students learn. Straightforward content and keeps class up to date with current events. He will inspire you to achieve your academic/life goals. Sometimes fun

Very nice professor! You have to study if you wanna get a good grade but it's anything impossible. Everything is provided by him so the textbook is not necessary. I took normal class and I regret I didn't take honor!

He is one of the most knowledgable professors at OCC. He really excels in the details he knows about literally all the countries and the business related issues in those countries. I definitely recommend him. People don't realize how interesting it is to care not just about the US but also about the rest of the world.

Amazing class. you learn a lot about the whole world and especially how the market works in the US. He is very caring and hardworking, definitely suggest him

Amazing Professor. Very experienced and thoughtful. He is a big advocate of the Honors Program, which I think is a good thing as honors really helps a lot to get scholarships and transfer to selective schools. Definitely suggest him! He is very accessible outside class too.

Prof Gordon is very knowledgeable. Business and politics go hand in hand. And if he has his own views I do not think that is a bad thing. It's always good to learn about other people's opinions before taking a stand. Additionally, he is a extremely experienced person, his views have a REASON. Take him if you want to learn

One of the best classes I have taken at OCC. Totally recommend it

Amazing class and great professor

Super cool class. Learned a lot about the global economy. Totally recommend the honors section.

Very great Professor. Knowledgable and caring. Good with questions

I loved Professor Gordon's Business Honors course! The class is straightforward & everything is in the syllabus. There is no HW, 4 simple team presentations & 2 exams. Honors is the way to go - much more insightful and Prof Gordon really makes it enjoyable. He brought real world topics to each class and was super helpful whenever I had ques

Very helpful professor and knowledge enrich lectures. I highly enjoyed attending class since he gives a lot of useful advice and tips for business majors looking to pursue the field in the future. The consistent presentations were very helpful in improving my public speaking skills and gave me a visual on how business pitches can be like.

Lee Gordon is the best!!!!

Professor Gordon is a great business teacher, he talks about real life problems and is always updating students about current situations in the financial sector. Easy A class as long as you do the work. 2 tests that are multiple choice and 4 group presentations. Final was cancelled and replaced by 4 group essays due to the sudden switch to online.

Professor Gordon was a great teacher, his lectures were interesting, even though it was 4 hours long every day (winter session). The honors aspect was great, if you use flashcards the test is easy, he lets you write your essay for the test before class so that's great. The group projects were not too hard, as long as your group works together :)

Lee Gordon changed the course of my college career in one day. He is the most involved and passionate teacher Ive ever had. If any students dont like him, its because theyre literally the most lazy people and want to skate by. Just study the terms he gives you and youll get an A+ like I did. Also, take the Honors courses. Just do it.

Professor Gordon is a gem. Its a very easy class, take it! He is also very educated so you actually want to learn a lot about business.

He is a very kind professor. He cares a lot about his students. Taking a class on Zoom during the pandemic, there was no exam or midterm. 8 presentations for each team.

Prof. Gordon was incredible. He knows a lot about the business world and his honors class was a breeze. No stress whatsoever and I appreciated how the class was only graded with 2 easy tests and 6 presentations. I never once had to worry about this class and I thoroughly enjoyed his lectures. He is also a very generous grader. Just take him.

I took it online during intersession so the set up was different. He mentioned there being an exam at the end (normally) but since it was online it was different. We had 8 team presentations (really easy) and he was very clear on what he wanted for each one (ask). He was nice and a good professor. The lectures were also pretty interesting.

Attended his first class back on campus after Covid, it was my first class on campus ever. I loved it. His class forced me to improve my study habits. I'm very grateful for this class; I learned a lot. Make sure you participate in class, and ask questions. If you are in honors, make sure you prepare well for the in class essays.

Took his accelerated four-week course and absolutely loved it! So incredibly glad I took this course with prof. Lee; Pretty lecture heavy, but afterwards he opens the floor for discussion + questions, and is incredibly engaging, informative, kind, and keeps lectures modern. No homework, only presentations + exams! Couldn't recommend him enough!

Great professor. Interesting during lectures. Be ready to work on group projects.

He is very amazing, very good lecturer. He's very passionate about the subject and will answer any questions that you've have to offer. Also, very little to no homework, you have presentations, but it shouldn't be a big of a deal. Anyways, great professor, highly recommended.

Taking BUS100H with him during Summer was a wonderful experience! No hw, just 5 total group presentations + 2 exams. He gives you all the terms you need to know beforehand. He's a passionate prof, so even though its an "easy A," you def want to return that passion! He will make you feel great about yourself & you can tell he appreciates it!

No homework besides group projects. Your grade is dependent on group projects and two hand-written exams. Group project is easy as long as you have reliable teammates and the professor is very lenient on grading them. Very informative and brings up recent events to connect with what you learn. Long lectures though.
