Great teacher! really does care about the wellbeing of all of his students! I wish he taught more classes!
Professor Tawil is very helpfu;l and is pleasant to be around. I had him for Special Topics and I'll also have him for Classroom Management this Fall 2011.
I've enjoyed his class. He has been very entertaining and informative. He has allowed extended deadlines to allow students to excel. The class is worth the money just to see him perform. He believes in using higher order learning / testing which helps your grades... :)
GREAT. Allows extended time for sudmissions. Is always available to help! Very informative.
Dr. Tawil is an education teacher & former inner city principal, with much real world insight to give. Most importantly, he cares about his students-excellent communicator. The was a Classroom MGMT course, and he modeled the concept extremely well in our classroom. Emphasized APA writing of required papers. Allowed to redo work for better grade.
Great personality.... Outgoing and open. Great classroom discussions and sharing of ideas. A great environment to learn in!
Tawil is awesome! His experience in the education field is so vital. If you get him as a teacher- bond with him because he is extremely helpful with everything.
Such a great teacher. Has a lot of personal experience in education. Very helpful if you have a question. The best in the Education Program.
he is a cool teacher to have. i recommend him to anyone really. we usually talk alot during class and barely any work. plus we get to leave class a bit early too which is cool. hes a great teacher. :) <3
Easiest class you will ever take in college. Make sure you do all the jornals. COME TO CLASS! Take pictures of all the F.Y.E events. You will need it for a project later.He loves class discussions. Directions were not always clear and sometimes and confusing. In the end great professor with knowledgeable advice!
Dr. Tawil is an EXCELLENT professor. He's a cool guy that truly cares about his students, and if you have a personal question or issue, he is always there to listen, lend advice, and jump right in if he can to help you with anything. If there were half as many other professors like him, college would be such a different experience. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Great professor, as long as you participate and turn things in on time, you'll be fine. Would highly recommend him!!!
Mr. Tawil is awesome!!! I would highly recommend him.
Comparing to Dr. G is pointless if you've never taken her SLS class. They are both great instructors and have their own styles. Dr. Tawil and Dr. G both rock the SLS class!
Dr. Tawil is a great professor. His Cornerstone class is a lot of fun. Don't waste your money on the book, we never used it. Some of the other students said it did help with their journals, but I got an A on all of them without the book. Show up for class (Attendance is 20% of your grade) and do the work and you will pass.
He always provides fun lectures. There is no final in the Cornerstone class. There is only a final essay. Do NOT get the textbook it is useless. Just do your journal entries,attend class,and GPS. You will be guaranteed an A. I wish he taught other classes. He taught me important life skills that changed my life.
Dr. Tawil is amazing, probably the easiest class. Make sure you show up for class and actually listen to what he has to say. He helped me so much and gives awesome advice!! No final and don't get the book!
the easiest A+ you can get. Professor Tawill is fun and really helpful if you are undecided in your major. don't buy the book you wont use it. Take him. !!!
BEST PROFESSOR HANDS DOWN. He connects with you and gives the best advice. If i can re take this class I would just to listen to what he have to offer you.
Awesome class, Great professor! Very informational about life skills, student success and so much more. Going to this class was well worth it. Go and participate it will be the easiest A you can get. This class is fun with Dr.Tawil, you will leave with better knowledge and understanding. One of a kind, he genuinely cares about the students.
He the greatest prof I have ever taken or probably will take! He is the best prof you could have, you can ask him anything and he can help you. JUST TAKE HIM! teaches an boring class but its worth it to have him!
Easy A. Make sure you attend class and participate. If you do not attend class you will fail! He started this mypluslab thing so we only had class Wednesday & Thursday and Monday & Wednesday was online. That's the only part I didn't like. Has a weird sense of humor and has one foible: He takes FOREVER to grade. Overall great professor.

Dr. Twail was an excellent teacher! I would not reccomand any teacher but him for this course. DO NOT PURCHASE THE BOOK!!! He is hilarious and very inspirational
Dr. Tawil truly is an amazing professor. In his Freshman class he didn't just teach the usual college freshman crap but he gives you real and highly helpful advice that you can use throughout all your life. He is very inspirational and also hilarious. He is always there for his students to. He makes that class actually worthwhile going to.
Professor Tawil was by far one of my best professors this semester. Overall from my experience I feel like he was straight forward with every assignment. Journals, GPS, Final Essay, Group Project, Attendance, & your Critical Thinking skills is all you need to pass this class. If you are a person who wants an easy A this is the professor for you.
Very good professor that really cares about the students. He is fair about all grades. Just show up to class and do the assignments and you will do wonderfully! Also, he gives great life advice, which was helpful for me! Plus, you don't need the textbook!!!
Pretty straight forward teacher, would suggest to take him for cornerstone over other teachers.
Dr. Tawil was a great professor. He will help with anything a student has questions about and he genuinely cares. His lectures are lengthy, but if you really listen, it's great life advice. By the end of the semester, the class is like one big family. I would suggest taking him over other cornerstone teachers definitely.
Dr. Tawil is great. If you do your assignments you will have an A. Engaging lectures.
Tawil, is the man! He's helped me in class and out of class. He's hilarious. Make sure you turn in gps and all journals or you will fail. I looked forward to going to this class everyday I had it. Thank you for everything Dr tawil. Shannon Hayes
This is my first semester in college.. Easy class. Never use a book. Glad I picked him over all the other SLS proffesors. He also gives great advice. If you guys have to take Cornerstone get Tawil!! You wont regret it.
He is an awesome teacher had him for a 9am class on a Monday morning, good guy learned life lessons! Don't try and tell him the NFL is not rigged he is good at making you laugh and learn!
Great professor! Very funny and honest. One of the best professors I've ever had. He has helped me with pursing my degree more than my academic adviser has. Really enjoy going to his class. The assignments are easy but also very interesting and eye opening. I would take any class he that he teaches. I could definitely see that he loves his job.
Best of Best
Dr. Tawil is a great professor. He knows how to keep the students focus on his class. I took this class because is mandatory but I will never regret every minutes spent in the classroom. I will definitely take more classes with him if it is available. I will recommend to every student take this class with him. It is an amazing communicator.
Awesome teacher, very understanding , funny, gives great advice and never made it feel like class. I looked forward to going to his class. Topics in class were always interesting and goes by quickly.
Dr. Tawil changed my life! He makes you wake up and take an active interest in your college success and your life. He is the best teacher of ultimate meaningful life hacks!! LISTEN!!!!
Professor Tawil made this class extremely fun and informative. If you are willing to be open minded and use the information he gives you, it will inspire you to do great things.
Dr. Tawil is an amazing professor. When he teaches, he makes sure you comprehend the topic that he is teaching. Just show up to class with a positive attitude, turn in your work and you will do better than okay. Also, in order to fail his class, it takes a lot of effort....
Class was super fun and easy. He's very helpful if you ask questions and makes everything clear. Attendance is a grade so show up. You would have to work really hard to fail his class. He basically gives you everything you need to know.
This was one of my first classes after being out of school for 30+ years. The class was fun and informative. Helpful and really concerned about the students future.
Professor Tawil is insightful, helpful, and very accommodating. The class was really easy.
Tawil is awesome! Interesting lectures and gets the whole class involved. Homework is easy and no textbook needed.
Tawil is an easy professor to get along with. Super funny! His class was an easy A and interesting. He talks for majority of the class giving life lessons and what not. Must complete journals, do your GPS, and show up to class to pass. Towards the end of the semester you have to do a final group project and a final paper.
My FAVORITE professor! He gives the most inspirational speeches. Class is very easy and fun. Don't even use textbook.
Fun Class! Time consuming bc its kind of a highschool class which you have to attend in order to pass docent matter if you are or arn't going to do anything. Its easy not to go to class bc all you do is class discussion. Grades consist of attendance, journals, group project, essay. You just have to be involved!
This class was very entertaining. It was very chill and we discussed for most of it. We didn't do much work except for Journal Entries that were for homework about every 2 weeks. He honestly loves what he does and makes it enjoyable to be there. I wish I could take him again, but SLS is the only class he teaches. 100 percent recommend!
Going into this class I expected it to be extremely boring and uninteresting. I turned out to be completely wrong. Dr. Tawil's class gave a whole new view on life. I learned life lessons that I could've only learned with experience and if Dr. Tawil taught any other classes I'd sign up in a heartbeat.
I recommend this teacher for Cornerstone. He's very funny, interesting lectures and very helpfully with picking out your true career in life. There's not much homework, just make sure you come to class because it does count as a grade. Other than that this course will be an easy A.
Dr. Tawil is super down to earth and funny. Really invests in his students and genuinely cares about our lives outside of class. I feel very lucky to have chosen him as a professor!
Dr. Tawil is the most AMAZING professor. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM. Attendance a must. Funny. He gives you lots of great advise and through his easy assignments you will learn so much. He truly cares about his students. I wish he would teach other classes, because I would definitely take him again. A TRUE ROLE MODEL. Go Dr. Tawil.
Definitely helpful. Journals are easy, and participation is required.
Great teacher. Loved being in his class. Doesn't give good feedback with journal entries and grades come back very slow but overall great!
Dr Tawil cares about his students. He gives great lectures. I would recommend him to anybody who needs to take cornerstone.
All lectured a relevevant, he uses real life scenario.
Dr. Tawil is hands down one of the best professors I have ever had, if not the best. He truly cares about his students, he is very smart and he offers great advice. Homework is easy and he doesn't assign much. Attendance is a MUST. Don't even bother wasting your money on the textbook as we didn't open it once. I highly recommend this professor.
Made my first semester a wonderful start and inspired me to push myself.
Hands down the best professor! Wish he taught more classes. Great lectures and easy assignments. Just be involved with the discussions, this professor wants everyone to participate. I really enjoyed this class and learned heaps of helpful information. Other professors need to take notes from this man!
Amazing professor!!! Extremely knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor, loves to talk and likes having people participate he doesn't force you, though. You will learn a ton and won't get bored!
Dr. Tawil is an extremely inspirational person with a great sense of humor! I've learned great things from him this semester. Highly knowledgeable in all aspects of life. Amazing lectures and easy assignments. I don't regret taking his class at all!
Class itself was a breeze. All assignments were fairly easy. One problem, however, was the GPS project. I took the class with the expectation that the project could be completed entirely online (it says so in the GPS module). It was not. Most of the resources needed to complete the project were unavailable and Tawil gave us no alternative options.
Dr. Tawil is great! Gives awesome life lessons and lectures. He enjoys cracking jokes once in a while.. or all the time i should say. Journals of 250+ are due every other week, also a GPS project fairly easy including a group project towards the end of the semester. Show up to class and pay attention you will receive a passing grade! TAKE HIM!
He was the best teacher I've had all throughout school . He's really inspiring.
Really funny and sarcastic! Loved it! He really tries to get to know you! Would definitely take again!
I enjoyed this class! He is funny and yet gets his point across clear. Recommendable for sure
Fun class, great lectures, brilliant professor. He goes off on a lot of random tangents (spending an entire class talking about flying lessons, for example), but they're always fun, and usually informative in some way.
I can't safe enough good things about this man. He made my first semester of college so much easier. He is encouraging and very motivating. He is very fair in his grading and very understanding.
SLS was a great chance to find out your strengths and abilities as a student and Dr. Tawil really accentuates the ambition for learning and seeing students succeed.
He. Is. Awesome. As long as you're not a sensitive person and can realize that there is a real world out there that doesn't cater to you. I like that the most about him. He provides good class discussions and materials and is clear with his expectations. If you're in class and paying attention, you'll do great.
the way Matin teach this class, it challenges me to do great things not only in class but also in everyday life. I recommend this professor to all of the students who are taken cornerstone, you will learn, and you will understand the assignment. show up to class and turn in your work on time, and I'm sure you won't regret the effort.
Dr. Tawil is amazing! His lectures are fun and full of information that will benefit you beyond school. Journals are due weekly, GPS project and a final group presentation. Recommend taking this class with this professor as a mini A or B in the summer.
Funny. Caring. EASY A!!!!
Professor Tamil I is an amazing teacher who inspire you to be the best you, you can be.
Awesome professor and super funny. He's very easy to talk to and really wants the best for his students and for them to succeed. Be prepared for a semester long campus project and a group project as well, plus weekly critical thinking journals. He's very clear on what he expects and if you show up to class and put forth effort, an A is NOT hard.
Dr. Tawil was the best! I had him for the blended Cornerstone class, and as long as you turned everything in and put in effort, this was an easy course. His lectures and activities were always entertaining, and he made Cornerstone a meaningful and enjoyable class. He truly gave me motivation to make my life my own.
Best professor to have as an incoming college student
Grading is super easy, you have to try extremely hard to fail this class. Word of advice, buy only the access code and not the book. we never even used it. Some of the lectures are really cool and some really draw out. Easy class. There's no way you'd get less than a B.
Great person and professor
Prof Tawil is an awesome professor is it very hard to not pass his class. You need to be in class and just pay attention. He gets you ready for the real world.
Great professor, would love to take him again, he has a great personality and super funny. Only reason I didnt get an A is because I didnt complete things on time. He does take off a lot of points for late work and counts attendance as 20%. But veryyyy easy assignments and overall an easy class that i didnt mind going to.
Professor Tawil is a really good teacher and his lectures are very inspiring, I would definitely take his class again. Attendance is mandatory and there's assignments but they're super easy to complete.
Easy 1 credit class that definitely gets students brains moving towards what is important in a professional setting. Would take Tawil again in a heartbeat.
He's a bit loud, but altogether very realistic and quick to get to the point.
He is a great SLS teacher, I am with the collegiate high school early admissions program, and he makes it very easy to get accommodated to college. Very funny, professional, and will get to personally know you.
Excellent instructor! He was fun and helped in anyway he can
Professor Tawil was an amazing professor I took him for cornerstone sls 1515 . He's so helpful just ask him and he will help. and so easy to get a hold of. One of the best professors at FSW.
Professor Tawil might be great in class, but he is not up for online classes. Horrible communication skills via canvas and email. Need help on an assignment? Don't waste your time contacting him, he will only tell you to refer back to modules. The students in the same class are all struggling as well. Tawil is NOT the go to when it comes to online.
From reading the reviews he seems to be a nice guy in person but is a horrible online professor. He does not put any effort into the class at all. He says go read the textbook or look at the syllabus when you ask any questions. That is not helpful at all. This class is extremely difficult and he is the worst professor to take the class with!
Accounting is a very hard class. He was fair and understanding during this semester. There are a lot of assignments and you need to keep up with the work. I studied a lot to pass the course. I like numbers to this class was good for me. Tawil is a very nice teacher and cares.
The class was online. Mr tawil offered help sessions online. the class is difficult and I had spent so much time on homework and tests. the grades are fair. if you do the homework, quizzes, tests, and projects you do okay in the class. accounting is not my best subject and I passed it.
Dr. T is great! he is flexible and understanding. I tested + for COVID and he helped me turn assignments in late for a full grade. I will take the next accounting class with him for sure.
good course. helped me. easy course.
This class was alot of work but I learned so much. I spend several hours a week working on the class. He provided a study sheet for the final. He was flexible to my needs.
Dr. Tawil's ACG2071 is a perfect example of online course complications. The entire course he sent 1 singular message to the class, regarding that he would be absent from office. Contacting him is a hassle, and usually takes several days to respond. Course setup and delivery was extremely poor. Final exam did not have a study guide. Wldnt recommend
Good class.
I took this course in a mini-b session and it was relatively easy. He states clear instructions for assignments and discussions to receive full credit. However, when it comes to the tests be prepared to write at least 2-3 short answers that he will grade after the multiple-choice sections are submitted.
I took sls 1301 as a mini summer class and it was a very easy course, not too much work, and professor Tawil responds back to emails either that same day or within the next two days. I would highly recommend him.
This is the worst professor I have ever had the displeasure of taking a course with. He allows for limited attempts with zero feedback on the homework. The lectures have nothing to do with the homework, the homework has next to nothing to do with the quizzes and good luck on the tests. He is hard to reach and does not answer clear questions asked.
Took mr tawil mini A. It was a good class. I learned about myself and my career options. Good class.
Prof Tawil was very understanding about my personal life. I had an illness this semester and he was happy to extend the assignments for me.
He is very flexible and helpfull. The class is hard but he gives you every possibel chance to pass.
I took Prof Tawil for financial accounting and this class too. He is very nice and cares about his students. Get ready to study. He is there to help.
I had Dr. Martin Tawil for my Managerial Accounting class, and he has been amazing. While the work may be tough, he provides honest feedback and responds promptly to any questions his students may have.
Took his class for financial and managerial account for the past few semesters and overall I learned a lot between the two classes. Homework was straightforward and the quizzes related to the homework. Classes were difficult but the professor responded to any questions I had regarding assignments.
He is helpful and he responded to my questions.
He gives lectures and information in the zoom meeting.
He gives lectures, examples, and information in the zoom meeting.
As long as you make sure to do the homework and study you will definitely pass. He always responds to emails and any questions you might have. I would definitely recommend this professor.
Do the work and ask questions you will do well. Easy going professor. He is very understanding too.
Do the work and study! This Professor was very understanding and he helped me.
You definitely have to put a lot of effort in this class. The grading is mostly homework and quizzes.
Definitely do your homework in this class because of a lot of your grade depends on it, but it is definitely not too much homework. You get one homework assignment a week with around 12 questions as well as either one quiz for the chapter(with 10 questions) or a section test (with 20 questions). The class was asynchronous.
Professor Tawil clears up any misunderstandings and has quick response times. I liked the class structure of just reading and completing your weekly homework and quizzes.
As long as you do the homework and quizzes for the course you will pass. He is good at responding to emails. He is very flexible and helpful. The class is hard but he gives you every possible chance to pass.
This professor seems like able for in person classes. However online class is another story. He takes for ever to respond to email. The works is extremely stressful and almost made me cry.
Good class and very informative. I learned so much.
I am taking this class with Dr Tawil online lecture. we meet once a week for lessons. He records the lecture and posts to the class. he can explain the lesson easily.
Sls 1350 was a good class and I learned so much.
Dr. Tawil was accessible and had valuable knowledge regarding important accounting concepts.
I do not like accounting or math but I need this class. The class is not easy but prof tawil posts weekly videos to help with the hw and test.
I liked the videos he posted. He is also flexible too. Accounting is just hard for me.
prof tawil is great and understanding. Anything with numbers is hard for me. He tries to help in anyway he can.
I took this class on Zoom. He is very good at explaining things. He is very patient with us when we asked questions.
He is very understanding and helps you in any way. Great class!
Do the extra credit. The class sessions were very good. I also watched his videos which helped me. He wants to you pass and learn accounting.
I went to the first class last night and it was great. He broke it so simply and I understood what he was teaching.
I loved this course. It helped me think about my future and how to write a good resume.
A nice and approachable professor. Would highly recommend.
Dr. Tawil is very good. We had lectures and online classes. He has videos to help you understand the materials. I recommend him for any class.
Dr. Tawil is super caring and helpful. I love him! He truly wants to see students succeed! I really hope to have him as a professor again in the future!!!
The online material and resources Prof Tawil offered were very helpful. He not only does video lectures, but he also has resources like interactive slideshows, solution walkthroughs, and other videos relating to each chapter. The interactive slideshows were the most helpful for my learning type because I struggle watching videos/reading textbooks.
Prof Tawil is super caring. He helped me so much during Ian. He made the class flexible.
Just took this class for the Mini-A semester. It was a really easy, informative class that provides information necessary for the future, such as forming a resume and seeking a career following graduation. You will enjoy this professor and this class!
I took Dr. Tawil's SLS 1350 Summer-B class so I could catch up on my credits. Overall this was a super easy class. The assignments aren't that hard, they're usual a weekly discussion post and a short report. He responds to emails pretty quickly and will help you if you need it. If you are looking for a easy class for credits, take this class!
