what an amazing professor, they should all learn from him. take him when ever you get the chance. he is such a nice person and a great teacher.
He is SO nice. SO nice. Also a pretty easy graded, but SO nice.
really nice guy.... lenient w class time and attendance, flexible w work being due
Prof Cokkinos is a great teacher. He's very nice and helpful. He would explain what to do before giving assignments. He's also a pretty easy grader, as long as you do the work. Once you finish the work, you got to leave, so I almost always got out early.
Really Cares - Knows his stuff inside and out
What a great class and professor - Take it if you can get in. He is enthusiastic and knows his stuff. You produce a professional video on DVD and learn video editing on the computer.
He is so awesome and fun!
what a nice guy! clear, helpful. we love you mike!

funnnnnnnnnnn
he's amazing- if you care- he will.... i have gotten all a's and had him for every class he teaches!!!!!!!!!!
Awesome guy, very easy, doesn't hold you for the full time. You can leave when you finish your work. Only quizes, no tests!
Totally nice guy and very approachable. Knows his stuff and has no problem helping out. Doesn't keep you for the whole class time and just makes you do what you gotta do and then lets you out. He really is a good professor all around. He is out to help his students in every way
Just the best Professor I have ever had. He took away my fear of computers and made me a geek. He is so patient and fair. I would definitely take him again and would reccommend you do.

Made a potentially hard class easy. Very easygoing and relaxed, easy to talk to. Definitely take him for whatever class if you can!
The class was easy he was very nice always let us out early. I got a 100 on every test and did the little homework he assigned then he surprised me with an A- at the end so that was pretty annoying considering i thought it was a definite A.
Great class, great professor. He is soo nice and helpful, and a lenient grader too. The final project was not too stressful, and we learned a lot. Would definitely recommend him.
I was lucky to get this professor for a second time. He really works hard to get the material into everyone's head. The class demands a lot of individual attention and Professor Cokkinos delivers.
I love this professor. Why cant they all be like him. He really cares, he really knows the material, and he is really nice and very understanding. The class has been so helpful to me not only at FIT but in my job. I cant wait to take this professor again and you should too.
He is a very nice guy. Taught me a lot and made the class extremely easy. He lets you out early as soon as you finish your work. Never lasted all 4 hours and usually not even 3 hours
Very nice and laid back. We were on the internet screwing around the entire class time. Easy grader on projects. Never used full class time. I didn't even finish all the assignments and got full credit.
He is just a caring professional teacher. Takes his time and is very patient with everyone in the class. Although he let people who finish leave early I stayed till 10 with him most every class.Professor Cokkinos helped me way beyond what I expected in this class. I would take him again in a second.
This professor took us through video production and editing very thoroughly. Even though we had many technical problems Cokkinos kept working us through the process. He was always available to help in and out of class. I wish all of my teachers cared as much as professor Cokkinos.
Super duper nice guy, very helpful, and very straight-forward. If you listen to him, you show up to class, have your book and follow the instructions, you will do great, no doubt about it - it's simple! And the best part...he lets you leave when you're done! :D
The best teacher I have had. I thought I know the programs when I came into the class but he showed me so much more that now really helps me in my job. He is also very helpfull outside of class.
If you want to learn video at FIT this teacher is the best. The first day I was scared stiff in the lab. He knows how to teach all of the equipment and bring it to my level. I could not believe the quality of the projects that were produced. Professor is friendly and works very hard to make it fun.

This is my third class with Professor Cokkinos. his style is easy going and patient. He also encourages you to do your best. Take a class with him and you will not regret it.
This is an amazing professor. He made the class such a great learning experience and constantly tailored it to our needs and situations. The projects came out so good and I learned so much. I will take all his classes if I can.
Very nice. I learned so much.
Cokkinos is awesome. You will never stay more than 2 hours in his 4 hour class. The assignments are pretty easy but he will always help if you if you get lost. He thoroughly goes over the material before a test but it is always open computer anyway. He's really fun to just have a conversation with as well and will help you build your resume.
Professor Cokkinos made the class so clear it was easy to do well. I thought I knew the software but he takes it further than the book and clues you in on how to integrate it with your other work. So patient and approachable. I found that I really like Excel
I HIGHLY recommend you take him. I had him for 2 classes. He doesn't take attendence and u come/go as u please as long as u get ur project done. Extremely nice and easy as hell. TAKE HIM if you can. Plus he's hilarious
Professor Cokkinos is the best. Looking back on this semester I really feel I learned so much in his class that I can really use in my job and internship. He is so patient and fun I would take every class that I could with him.
Great professor. Very confident and makes you feel comfortable with all the technology. I learned more than I expected and he really made the class relate to the other theory classes I took. He is very friendly and encourages you to join in outside projects too. I went to the WFIT TV meetings and found it very professional.
Professor Cokkinos is the most patient and caring teacher I have ever had. I feel that his class really prepared me for my internship. I would take another class with him for sure. He goes so far beyond the book and relates the software to the real world.
He's one of the nicest teachers at FIT. he's an awesome teacher, clear as water and his class is very easy. I've learned a lot.
This Professor is AMAZING. He has us producing a professional TV show by the third class. So nice and patient. He really cares and it shows - I would take him again.
This professor is amazing. Teaches complex material on your level and the project we are doing look great. This is a short summer class so it is really challenging prof cokkinos guides us through everything. He handles all the problems that arise in the production process with ease. Very professional - I am learning so much.
The first day of class I was so intimidated by the video studio. Prof. Cokkinos makes everything so clear and easy, I learned everything and even got to direct my own production. I am joining WFIT so that I can learn more about TV production. Be sure to take Prof Cokkinos for this class.
Professor Cokkinos is so caring and works really hard to make the class clear. It is really exciting to learn how a TV studio and team functions. It is my favorite class.
Fun, interesting prof who is very into his subject and engaged in many school activities. He's happy and nice amd very easy. I would take him again! I really recommend him, he's very very good
Professor Cokkinos is SO NICE! He runs the class like a real world studio. He supplies us with outside clients and makes us produce stuff that goes on their websites. It is a great class with a great teacher.I learned a lot and would highly recommend him.
Loved Cokkinos for Video Studio Production. Really Nice Professor and Knows what he's talking about. Plus the class is a lot of fun.. He skipped over our midterm and we had 3 projects and a final... Defiantly take him!
He is an awesome teacher. Very cool and confident. Our group produced broadcast quality TV under his guidance.
He is a really nice guy. Took him or Video Studio Production. We made lots of television type productions like live interviews, commercials, and music videos. It was a fun class. It can be confusing but he helps you and the assistance help you. He is really easy going. I definitely recommend him.
Great Professor! He's passionate about what he teaches and gets the whole class to enjoy it. I learned a lot from him. I had him for three different classes and he taught them all very well. Go Prof. Cokkinos!
What a great experience taking a class with Cokkinos. He is so nice and very smart. The summer went so fast but we did so much in a short time. I really want to work in production after this class.
I think Professor Cokkinos is my favorite teacher at FIT. His class is so much fun and you learn all the behind the scenes procedures of TV production. He really stresses group projects and inspires a team dynamic. His tests are easy as long as you pay attention in class. The best thing is you get to produce three real TV shows.
Prof Cokkinos is great! He's so nice and the class was super easy. The class content itself is fairly boring but he kept it fun. You can show up late and leave early he's really easy-going about that. He is also super helpful and tries to get you extra points on tests when he can. Will definitely take again!
Prof. Cokkinos is such a great guy! 3 major video projects to do throughout the semester and he's really hands on with all the groups in order to make sure they're all on track with and no one is getting left behind. Give you feedback with your projects and is always there in the studio with each group as well to help with whatever we needed!
Such a nice guy! Fun class, and an easy A. He barely takes attendance and he won't keep you the whole time. Here's what I disliked: all work is done in groups of 5 or 6, and your creativity is limited as far as film content. Project topics have to be school related, and they are quite boring. And at most times there is not much hands on work to do.
Really helpful and really nice!
Professor Cokkinos is by far the sweetest guy ever. Taking AC161 with him is a breeze. The textbook is a must since you basically work out of it. More often than not your out of the class way earlier than you should be cause he doesn't assign a lot of work per class. There is really no homework but there are 3-4 quizzes but they are SUPER EASY.
Such a good professor he cares so much about his students and makes the class so easy
One of my favorites! So nice and patient Learned stuff that I use in my job everyday Especially EXCEL
HE IS THE BEST. my favorite professor so far, I hope I get to take his class again. I took his night class last semester and he let us leave so early all the time. He's an easy grader and seriously the best.
Really loved the way Cokkinos brings in outside talent to make our video projects actually work in a real world situation. He is smart, funny and takes his time to make the material understandable. Great class for me as a Photography student to get insight into video production.
Definitely take Cokkinos if given the choice! I found this class very easy since I am already certified in Word, PPT, and Excel, but even if I wasn't, this class is super simple. You NEED the textbook because the class is the textbook. There is a short 25 question exam after every section (Word, PPT, & Excel), along with a couple practicals.
Super easy class as long as you show up and participate. Professor Cokkinos is the nicest man and cares a lot about his students and is always there to help. The textbook is absolutely necessary for this class.
Took Professor Cokkinos for AC161. Perfect class to take at night, he let us go hours early. Textbook is 100% needed. No homework and 3 short and easy quizzes. Class was overall super easy.
Mr. Cokkinos is such a nice and understanding professor. He is so sweet and just a really great person. I took him for Multimedia presentation and it was the easiest class I have ever taken. He was a great conversationalist and fun to talk to.
He is a super nice guy that seems to really care about the success of his students. He makes sure everyone understands the content and is always open to answering questions and reviewing content. You will know exactly what is expected of you and he makes clear, easy tests and test reviews.
A very useful course. You pay $90 for the online workbook & use it every single class. Very practical assignments, and no homework. He teaches and goes over everything very clearly and you learn a lot from him. He is super passionate about his job and very understanding. no huge exams just 3 quizzes. He prepares you for each quiz. Take him!
Don't know why AMC majors need a film class to graduate but since we have to take it, take this class with Cokkinos. It's the second time I've had him and he's the best. He's funny and super chill but also very helpful. Show up to class. That's it. No homework, no quizzes, & all of your work will get done in the class period. But show up to class.
Super chill class. All you have to do is come to class and do the work and youll pass. Hes a nice grader when it come to tests . And hes quirky and funny !
Cokkinos is a great professor! Super chill and funny. He makes the class so easy. Just show up most of the time and do the classwork. You never have homework, no midterm or final. Just a few quizzes, classwork and a small PowerPoint presentation at the end of the semester. Take him if you have the chance to!
Really nice guy. For this specific class, he doesn't really teach us how to use the various media platforms, he expects us to either already know or learn for ourselves. Because of this, I feel like I didn't actually learn anything. That being said, as long as you put in the effort and turn something in it's an easy A!
Prof. Cokkinos is a pretty good professor. This class is really for beginners. Since I knew most of the information he was teaching, the lectures were boring for me, but if you don't know much then it's more interesting. He focuses the class around building a visual resume, which can be helpful to some, but for me it was repetitive.
Another amazing teacher at FIT! I got to speak with him before the class started over email and he is so kind. I have a strong interest in video production and he helped me learn so much more about it. The projects are so creative and fun and something to enjoy. No tests, quizzes, or hw. Just participate and submit all your work early. Take him!!
Loved him!! He only makes class about 1hr-1.5hrs long, then ends it for the day. Each week the assignments are they same, so you won't be confused & know what you're being graded on. He responds to his emails fairly quickly. Also, he often bumps up grades depending on your reason :)
Really nice guy but so much homework per week, so dont fall behind.
What an amazing professor! Super nice and caring and easily accessible outside of class. It's clear that he really cares about the success of his students, and will even make personalized videos for students on ways they can improve their work. His feedback was extremely helpful and constructive. Would absolutely take a class with him again
10/10 Take any class with the professor. His assignments are easy and he always gives such great feedback. I took his multimedia course online and it was an easy A. You can tell he genuinely wants his students to do well and makes the workload manageable and fun.
I love this prof! I had him online this year and it was great! I learned so much about excel and Powerpoint that I had no clue about before, and when you get something wrong he gives you great feedback and gives you the chance to fix it. This guy was so nice! Perfect example of someone who cares about his students! Wish all profs were like this!!!
The nicest man I have ever spoken to in my entire life. There are lots of modules but they're super easy, just time-consuming. He is so understandable an just wants you to try your best, he actually cares about his students and wants you to succeed.
He is such a great professor! He is so caring and the assignments are easy! He always answers his emails and is eager to help in any way he can. I recommend taking his class, 10/10
Best professor! He truly cares for each of his students and wants to help you succeed. A lot of the assignments in this class are very useful for your future and can be fun. You don't have to present but it's fun to show off your hard work and get feedback to improve. Always allows resubmissions and answers emails so fast. Def will take again.
Prof Cokkinos is a really good guy! No book needed, just show up to class and do it all while you're in class and you'll do really well. He's really good about giving feedback and helps a lot too. Its really hard to catch up if you miss a class bc then you're doing a bunch of things at once, so just show up and leave when ur done! Def take him!
Professor Cokkinos is, in my opinion, the best professor at FIT. He goes above and beyond to make sure you understand the assignments, and even makes personalized feedback videos to comment on some of your work. He's extremely encouraging and accommodating as well. Take him whenever you get the chance!!
Best online class, taking another one of his classes next semester too. Homework takes time but is easy. Super cool, funny and sweet. He always gave me great feedback on everything and was easy to reach! Replies to emails in minutes.
The subject in particular could be boring at times, but Professor Cokkinos makes it fun. He really wants all his students to do well. Understanding and very light-hearted, ask him questions and he puts a lot of effort to help you. No homework but you have to do the practical lessons in class after the lecture. Take him if you're in AMC!
I had Professor Cokkinos last semester and he is one of the best! He always tries to get everyone excited about Excel and Word applications and is a really easygoing professor. You'll do amazing if you show up to do the in-class assignments (which always have step-by-step instructions). Participation also helps!
Definitely recommend professor Cokkinos. He's so understanding and caring and will help you out with whatever you need in order to succeed!
Professor Cokkinos is someone who could easily teach a well-structured and lecture-heavy course. However, 461 is not that type of class - he and another professor were attempting to create a collab class that focused heavily on studio time and post-editing. We never received a clear grading rubric and were constantly confused on assignments.
Its my first day of class and I am so glad to find this professor. He made everything so clear and is very patient and understanding. Lots of energy and very funny. He really knows the software and already made me feel so comfortable about MS OFFICE which I was really nervous about. I wish every professor was like this.
Professor Cokkinos is a super nice, fun guy. He is pretty lenient. However, the class is just soooo long and boring. The assignments aren't hard but just very annoying/unnecessary, which is mostly due to the nature of AC262. There are multiple weekly assignments that can take up a lot more time/effort than you'd expect. You pick a partner at start
very organized with every class having a lecture and a new project. he really opened up my mind to how important technology is in presenting. i really liked all of the projects he makes us do even though they take a lot of time. i feel much more prepared to present myself in other classes and ultimately in job interviews. i would recommend him
Prof Cokkinos was a really great He knows his stuff and tries to keep it from being boring This course packed with information and you really learn a lot I impressed my boss with my new knowledge of Excel You have to do a video with MS Office tools for preproduction You get to shoot with cool gear and edit in class
I love Professor Cokkinos He makes the online experience lots of fun by making videos for each lecture that really cover the reading I was able to pass all the exams by watching the videos He responds to emails same day He also allows you to resubmit work for a second grading
Such an amazing professor and gives good feedback but won't affect your grade too much like losing points. Genuinely cares about his students and offers help if you need it. Tries to get you out of your comfort zone by wanting people to present.
You work in a really cool video studio in groups. Do everything from Interviews to TikTok demos. Professor Cokkinos always pushes something extra on you to add or fix in the edit.
Get ready to work on new projects every week in this class. The good thing is they are projects I really used. My resume, and E-portfolio got me my dream internship. You do a video resume, podcast, and lots of social media stuff for your personal brand. Professor Cokkinos is really kind and patient - take him!
I really liked this class! Makes boring software like Excel fun by having you do video projects using the software to script your videos. Takes attendance at the start of every class so show up He really knows all the answers
Prof Cokkinos is super passionate, helpful & knowledgable! I learned a lot in this class. Many of the assignments were useful for my personal branding/career search. However, he assigns A LOT of work and is often unclear about instructions/grading criteria. I felt he graded very harshly sometimes, especially because his critiques were subjective.
You can tell this guy puts in a lot of effort to make his online lectures interesting. Took the winter online course, 3 big papers, connect assignments, and some small homework assignments. Gives good feedback on essays and discussions. Very organized professor. Take him
Such a sweet guy and a great instructor. Very knowledgable and understanding. Outline of course was incredibly clear and easy to manage if you stay on top of it!
This class is a fun way to master Excel and other MS Office tools. The professor makes the lectures engaging and is always happy to help. For study prep, I found unstuck study really useful alongside the textbook.
He requests way too much unnecessary details sometimes so it gets annoying, and I believe some of the media we created are not useful for the career path, like the voice over ads. Can feel a bit frustrating and unmotivated to create some of the assignments.
Really great course and professor. Learned so much about presenting myself with lots of tools You get to update your resume, cover, email signature and LinkedIn Professor Cokkinos is patient and very helpful Lots of work but its all good in the end
Great class Great Professor He makes Excel so clear! Not only MS Office but you get to produce a video too. Attendance counts
Best online course I've taken. I was nervous at first. Cokkinos gives a clear overview of the work and many informative videos that walk through all of the projects. Used AI tools as additional resources for the projects. Responds to emails quickly. From not being comfortable in Excel I created an interactive dashboard by the end of the course
