He grades very easy and his class is very interesting. he talks about current issues and has guest speakers to talk to the class. he also shows videos etc.
Easy Ass Quiz and & Test.. I don't remember doing HW. There just one project at the end and thats it. The quiz was like 5 questions and the test was like 10 questions I think. Easy teacher & I learned some very interesting things. Easy A

Ouch. Yummy.
Pete Von was the best teacher I have had in some time. He kept my interested and I learned alot. He's really cute too! Keeps a girl coming to class...
Great teach; learned alot!
Fun class, learned alot.
funny, cool, cute, learned sooo much and it wasnt boring at all
Recommend taking International Business with this guy; knows his crap/not boring at all.
Highly recommend
Great class. Wasn't required for me, but I took it because I like International Business. Quizzes/Tests/Midterm all open notes. If you come every night and take notes, you'll get at least a B on everything. If you do the HW too you should get an A. The final paper was a bit of a pain, but I would definitely do it again if I had to.
Pete was a great teacher! He was very helpful. If I had any questions I was able to ask. If you get a bad great on your mid-term talk to him and he will automatically higher the grade 1/2 a grade. I highly recommend his classes are taken. If anyone complained about him being a hard teacher it was because they either didn't attend class or didn'
I have never met a teacher with a such great personality like Peter. Every night after his classes I felt a tremendous desire to learn, to work, and to grow. He is certainly a great mentor who not hesitate to share his own valuable experience in a business field. He is the teacher who inspire, and even change the trajectories of our lives.
He is really great as a professor. You can tell he is passionate about what he teaches. Only had two tests with him: the mid term and the final. Plus he let them be open note and they were relatively easy. Only one big term paper which is a 10 page essay. which can be simple since he gives you all semester to do it.
If you actually want to learn something from someone who truly knows the ins and outs of business, take Pete's Business 100 class. The way he structures the class makes you utilize the textbook, but it has a high payoff. I learned a lot from him not just about the class material, but business in the real world.
He takes attendance on every classes. Lots of group projects. Participation matters. Surprise test. Homework is a must ( online ). Good teacher. Discuss the current issues and agendas alot which is absolutely amazing. Great outcomes and changes comes in the student. Highly recommended to take his classes
Very important to read and write notes; might seem tedious, but will help you pass the class. Extra Credit is available. Prof is a good guy with a lot of knowledge. There will be times where you need to work with the people around you. Big paper due at the end about any business of your choice. Class is a lot of fun and definitely would take again.
Pete in AMAZING! He's a great teacher and is always willing to help, even if it's not in his class. He is also a great help in the business industry and can answer any question or point you in the right direction if needed. Very understanding, and hilarious. Overall he's awesome & I would definitely take him again!!
Professor von bleichert is the best! Loved being in his class and truly learned a lot about business. Really appreciated that we talked about current events at the beginning of class. There's one paper that is actually fun to write because you get to chose a company that interests you! If I could, I'd definitely take more classes with him.
Pete is very knowledgable, he knows how to explain things so a person that's not familiar with the subject will still understand. He gives amazing lectures that are engaging and interesting. You'll get to watch lots of videos in class. He's very understanding if u miss a class. And he really wants to help his students succeed. def recommend taking.
Pete's class is easy if you read the book and participate; if he sees that not a lot of people participate during lectures, he will give a pop quiz. The only thing you need to worry about in his class is the 10 page paper about anything business related, which you have the whole semester to do. He is funny and also approachable.
Great class. Would take more classes with him if I had the chance. Applies real life material to textbook matieral. 10 page paper on a company of your choice. Keeps things interesting in class by using a variety of teaching methods (PowerPoint, videos, groupwork, etc.)
Solid caring teacher; expects you to do the work and participate in class; great experience, I would definitely take another class from this teacher. I would recommend him to anyone; the tests are hard but he supplies you with all the information you need to pass, just do the work and you will be fine.
Absolutely loved this class. Pete makes learning fun and he is very approachable if you have a question about the course. I definitely recommend taking ANY class he teaches. Loved going to this class every day.
Phenomenal professor, extremely professional. Highly knowledgeable teacher that runs a great class and distributes his wealth of information and experience to the students that he teaches. Available outside of class and gives students every opportunity to succeed in his class. Also advises a very successful, well-run business club on campus.
Very good professor; the group projects are fun and he is very good at explaining the concepts.
This Professor was insightful, helpful and all around a joy to be around. He interacted with the class in a way that me as a student wasn't just give information and study , but he was practical used life lessons as examples to make his point clear. Very respectful stern but still light hearten enough to get the message across.
Professor Von Bleichert was the best! One of the first classes I took when I came back to school and still probably my favorite professor I've had to date at CSM. You can tell he's super passionate about what he teaches. He cares about his students and is always willing to accommodate if you have questions, concerns, etc. Highly recommend!
This professor was one of my favorites! He was very nice, understanding and an easy grader. Although every class included a lecture, he made sure to throw in some group activities to make class more interesting. Easy class if you simply do the work and show up. I highly recommend this professor, you won't regret it!!!!
A+ best professor, EVER. Pete's classes are mainly lectures. There is a lot of reading, but manageable. Be sure to take notes, you will need them for the exams. He gives out supplemental reading/current events, allows for a lot of extra credit for those who work for it. Tries to arrange tutors for those who bombed exams. Hands down would take again
The class is great, nothing heavy neither boring. The professor do his best to entertain the students with curiosities. He is has a great dynamic. I would for sure take all his classes!
The professor is friendly and courteous. For sure the best professor I ever had. He keeps in touch even if we are not enrolled in his classes anymore!
Peter is an AMAZING teacher! Hands down one of my favorites and the best at CSM! He is very approachable and easy to talk to. He will try his very best to help you with any questions you may have. He has made this introductory class interesting and intriguing for not only myself, but also for others thinking about majoring in Business!
Do the reading take notes and there is no way you won't succeed... great teacher highly recommend.
Great business teacher, very engaging and passionate about business. Would recommend to anyone unsure about becoming a business major, this is a great class to take in order to figure out if it is the right path for you.
Professor Pete is awesome! He offers a lot of opportunity for extra credit and he's very approachable if you need help. If you want to do well in his class show up and pay attention.
Peter is great guy! This class was a joy to take as he makes it very interesting and engaging for a business intro course. If you sit upfront and participate (and actually know your stuff), this class is a breezy. If you want to pass make sure you do the notes! Otherwise, he is very accessible in and out of the classroom as well as email. A+ job.
Awesome professor, super down to earth guy! Definitely keep up on the readings
He is a really good teacher and has a lot of insight in the business world. Class is relatively easy as long as you show up and are respectful. I would take his class again
Very friendly and knowledgeable; explains things very thoroughly(sometimes repeats too many times though). It's pretty clear that he cares more about students understanding the material as opposed to "earning their grade"(the tests were open notes, but it encouraged writing the notes in the first place), which I liked a lot. Great professor!!
Really straight forward teacher could not have asked for anything more from Pete! Lectures were great and not overwhelming. Highly recommend this class!
very interactive with students
He's one of my favorite teachers I have ever had. He reaches you the material very well but he also reached you life lessons and is willing to help you with anything. All you have to do is take goo notes on each chapter and you'll pass the class.
Loved Pete! Honestly just take him. Take notes on the vocab from book and you'll ace the test. Doesn't hurt to take notes in class too. What bugged me is he never put our grades up during the year. It scares me because what if he input a test grade wrong?! He just submitted our grades and there is no way to check even after the course was over.
High recommend.
One of the best professor I have. Open notes test but still can learn a lot.
Great professor, always there for help. The class is pretty easy just show up, read your stuff and participates in the class conversation.
Prof peter is one of the best prof in CSM. He is too too good, and he really helps alot so as to succeed the class.
He is an amazing teacher and the best teacher I have taken at CSM. He makes class really interesting and interactive. You absolutely need the text to get an A or B in this class.
Mr. Von is the best professor in CSM. His class is too good,he looks so good and he teaches so good. Everything is just wow in his class..
Pete is one of those professors who really makes an impact on your college career. As a non-business major, he made BUS 100 engaging and fun. He gives open-note tests because he'd rather you learn the material than simply memorize it for an exam. He applies the material to real world scenarios, and a professor I would definitely take again!
This professor is amazing!!! I would definitely take his class again. He is so kind and friendly, and also be patient with your questions. Every class will take the attendance. Knowledge are easy to understand. Really recommend to take this class.
Wonderful Professor in CSM ! His Bus100 class is vivid and interesting, giving you more than the textbook! Highly recommended!
Great teacher
He's a great teacher and his class is fun!
He's a great professor, he's enthusiastic in everything he teaches. Gives a lot of opportunities for extra credit. You will need your textbook and do your notes to pass the class, but other than that its a great course!
Pete is by far my most favorite of my professors. The level of professionalism and experience he brings to the table is exceptional, and it's an absolute shame for those that do not take advantage of his wisdom. If you show up to class with a positive attitude, Pete will be sure not to waste your time. Pete is a must-have professor!
He always dress clean with warm smiles. Materials used are relative to daily life; I find them useful, interesting, and inspiriing. Homework took me about 2hr to finish per week. He responded to emails very quickly even not during working hours. He knows about what is he teaching really well. His class is ESL students friendly.
Solid teacher and even better person. What makes Pete great is his style of teaching.. covers the by the book stuff you need to know but also teaches you additional business concepts that are extremely useful in life. If you keep up with the notes and listen to lectures this is the class you look forward to going to. Pete is a great asset to CSM.
Pete's lectures are very interesting, and he uses different methods such as videos, and group activities to teach the course material. He gives a lot of extra credit opportunities to his students throughout the semester. As long as you read the textbook and take good notes, this class should be pretty straight-forward.
Great teacher but he does take things like paying attention to his lectures and personal integrity seriously and he feels disrespected when you look at your phone, not read the book or nod off. Be attentive and respectful and he will be nice and more forgiving to you when you need help.
I thoroughly enjoyed this class; Peter makes it very interesting and engaging. We always had great discussions about relevant BUS topics, and he truly cares about all his students. He always asked for input about what we thought about the course material and guests speakers, which I really appreciated. I would definitely take any class he teaching.
I enjoyed the course, it was both well taught and fun.. Not only do I hope to get another course where he is the lecturer but I would also recommend him to my peers.. Despite the fact that the material being taught was challenging at times, the work load was not unbearable and the tests and exams were fair.. I recommend closedbook exams in future..
It is quite a difficult class because if you just read textbook you will be misleading and ignore many important things. However, the professor provides good learning process for us to make our learning more efficiency and effective.
Best professor ever!
He's the professor you absolutely want to learn from. Amazing lectures. Very interesting person. Tough material, but he helps you to go through it. I would take his course again without doubt.
He connects w his students on a deeper level, really cares about passing you in the class if you work hard
One of the best Professors CSM has.
cool guy. learn a lot. graded on tests. very textbook oriented.
I love his class so much. It is truly inspiring. You usually only get one hw each week. He does give extra credit, and they are not hard to complete. His exam are easybut he gives about 15 questions, so one question is worth a lot.
One of the best teacher I ever had. He got all the good qualities and skills that a good teacher should have. Amazing lectures, news, updates, motivations, and really good personality. Would definitely take his other class too.
Pete was the best professor I've ever had! You can really benefit from him if you take the time to personally talk to him, and tell him your business plan/ideas. He makes the material easy and fun during lectures, and homework is minimal. I wish i needed more business classes, so i could take more of his classes!
One of my favorite professors in CSM. Cool guy. Friendly and Very helpful.
Definitely love him! Best business prof in CSM. 3 tests plus a final but he will drop one lowest test score. Amazing lecture every time!! U can learn a lot from his class. Highly recommend!
Pete is an amazing teacher who really takes the time to explain things. He is very clear about what he expects of his students. He is always available and lets the class know when he is not. Explains his material very clearly and goes over the readings all the time. Great teacher with a fun personality. Genuinely cares about students and material.
One of the best business professors in CSM. Super knowledgeable, passionate and definitely helpful towards his students. He frequently offers help to his students throughout the semester. Tests aren't bad too as long as you read the book. He also lots of EC opportunities plus you could also ask him about career choices in business. Recommended!
Really good class and teacher! Very informative class and instresting! I learned a lot! Never got bored!
He is the nicest teacher ever. If you read the book you can definitely get a good grade in class. He respects students so much. Peter will talk about current news every day in the class. This makes his lessons so vivid and not boring at all.
Pete is easily the best teacher Ive had while at CSM, very passionate about business and teaching it! Be prepared to read, participating in class is a big bonus along with all of the extra credit he throws at you. 10/10 would recommend (no meme)
He is the best business professor ever! He does not only teach the material but also gives you view on business environment. He cares his students in order them to do well. Definitely take his class!
Mr. Bleichert is one of the best professors that I have ever had. He is very passionate about business and has a lot of experience running his own companies so he is able to bring his lectures to life with real world experience. If you read the book, do your HW, knock out a couple extra credits, and participate in class, you should get an A.
Legit just read the textbook.I'd recommend reading ahead of time and taking thorough notes. The tests are mostly definition based, you have 1 major project called a pitch deck which he helps you with. He does all the homework with you and gives you plenty of time to do it. He wants all students to succeed and gives hella chances for extra credit.
As a high school student taking a college class, I could not have asked for a better professor. He was thorough, never boring, engaging, and actually wanted his students to not only get a good grade, but learn and continue taking business classes. I would recommend this class to ANYONE, regardless of their major.
One of my best teachers. He really makes the topics interesting by showing videos, discussing real world examples, and applications. Students who takes this course will get a good basic knowledge of business including the stock markets and there are lots of opportunities for extra credit so anyone should be able to get a decent grade.
Pete makes class interesting for everyone (whether you are taking the class for credit or not!) He brings in personal experience and is very passionate about business overall. Read the textbook, take good notes, show up to class on time, participate and you'll definitely receive an A. Best professor I've had in college so far for so many reasons!
Pete has been one of the best professors I had in my community college career. He really does care for his students and does want everyone to do good in the class. The textbook he uses couldn't be better, easy to read and understand. So just read the book, the test are nothing crazy and are mainly definition based. WOULD TAKE AGAIN IF I COULD.
Hes the best teacher!
He is a great teacher and i highly recommend taking him.
Peter Von Bleichert is one of the best professors I've ever had. He gives very little homework, which we have a week to complete. He assigns a cheap and interesting textbook and tells us what we need to know for the tests.
Tests are easy, you have to study though. Lectures are good, not boring, He interacts with students during lectures to make sure that people are understanding the topic.
He's great. He's always willing to answer a question.
Professor Von Bleichert was an amazing professor, he truly cared about students and how they were performing in the class. His lectures kept everyone up to date with relatable current events to our course work which turned out to be ver beneficial. Take this class for an easy A.
He was one of my favorite professor last semester! He was extremely helpful and made sure everybody had a good, clear understanding of the topic at hand. He gave a lot of extra credit and was always available to answer any questions I had. 10/10 would definitely take again!
Petey is the real MVP. Really wants students to be successful. Tons of EC opportunities. Funny dude. You will need the textbook though, and he checks to make sure you have it. Sometimes lets tests be open notes. 10/10 would take again.
Such a great teacher! Basic homework which he will help you do it all & clear test which are on all the notes we take ( no surprises ) Definetely 100% take him!!
Peter is a fantastic professor. He is very clear when instructing, and happy to help whoever needs it. He is funny too! I learned a lot in his class, and enjoyed it as well.
Pete is an awesome teacher there isn't much homework but he takes time to explain the concepts and is clear about grading. Don't miss too many classes though
We started our class with a news of the day which is my favorite , I really like his class and he is the most organized professor I have ever had, I enjoyed the class and he is the best. I recommend to take BUS classes with him. If you pay attention to the class you will pass the class with an A . He respond to my questions in the best possible way
Pete is one of the best teachers I've ever had! He is very patient, helpful, relatable, and responsive. He connects the lessons to current news. As long as you pay attention in class you will get an A.
Von Bleichert is a great professor. The way to pass his class, is to come everyday, pay attention to lecture, do his assignments, and read the textbook daily. His lectures are really interesting, and the work load is not that hard. You learn a lot when you come everyday and do the work. If you need help with anything, he will be glad to assist you
Pete was an amazing professor who knew how to communicate well with the class. He was always so friendly and was ready to assist anyone. He also begins his lecture by talking about the latest news and update and it was the best part of the class. It is important to show up to class and pay attention to the lectures to be able to do well.
Pete is a great professor; He is willing to give help to anyone he sees that needs it or asks for it. Overall, this class was interesting, and is well worth your time and knowledge. As long as you come to class, do homework, and read the material, this class will not be difficult.
This was a great class! He gives extra credit for things that will help you in life, like making a LinkedIn or creating an IRA. It is discussion-based, so you will learn more if you ask questions. I took the summer class and we went through a chapter a class, so if you missed one class you missed a lot. Also, not coming to class hurts your grade.
I really enjoyed the class and I have learned a lot
Great class and teacher
Prof. Von Bleichert is awesome. He takes the time to really listen to his students and waits until they have truly understood. He also has the background and real-world experience, along with a down to earth, and relatable way of explaining the material. He is very kind and very compassionate with the perfect mix of patience and humor! Great Guy!
Awesome teacher, really cares about his students and tries to bring in exiting, relevant information through pictures, files, and videos that really help make a connection to what we are learning. And he taught us financial information and tips that I will never forget! Very valuable source of knowledge. Enroll in one of his classes if you can!
Hes nice and funny Professor I hope I Take class with him agian
Dr. Von Bleichert is an extremely intelligent professor and also knows how to communicate and teach in an interesting/engaging way. Hes always open to questions and feedback but also is very serious about his class and making sure people are there to learn and understand the material. Hes a very kind man so dont be afraid to ask him questions!
Lets you use notes on all the tests! Great teacher, if you do all of the homework and assignments on time it is an easy A
Good interaction with the class
Dr. Pete is the friggin MAN. would totally be down to rap battle with students, so bring ur mixtape. also, study the lecture slides and do hw on time and you win.
Professor Von Bleichert is great! Super kind, surprisingly funny, extremely intelligent, really knows his stuff but isn't afraid to admit when he doesn't know an answer. His power points are informative and along with his verbal communication get everything across. Loved going to his class every day. Highly recommend and would def. take again!
Dr. Pete is one of the best professors I've had here at CSM. He is really kind, caring, intelligent, funny, outgoing. He really knows his material and taught me a lot throughout the semester. He made the class really enjoyable. I would definitely want to take him for another class.
Professor Bleichert adds humor and great insight related to each subject and I believe his lectures provide great lessons for both personal and professional life decisions. He dosen't give heavy workload, but his homework require time and effort; do your homework properly and you'll do well. He takes his time seriously, but will help if you ask.
during my semester with Pete, I learned more about the business world than I have in any other class. His class is very interesting and he is very passionate about the subject. the tests are open note. Very easy going person, and very well respected. I only wish that he would teach more classes!
Great professor learned a lot class participation is great I would definitely take this professor again he is very well respected n gives great feedback n really helps you with your assignments
Pete is amazing, he will make sure you know your stuff in a non-pushing way!! I once submitted the wrong file for my homework, he emailed me and asked me!! instead of just giving me a zero.
I took this class to see if I had an interest in a business major, I'm still not sure if I'm interested or if Pete just made this class enjoyable with his teaching and the subject matter interesting! All tests are open notes! He takes attendance every class and will drop students after mass absences.
It's very clear Pete cares heavily for both the subject and his students. He's accessible before class and through email. He generally will preface class with current/ real-world situations in business. Gives lots of extra credit opportunity. Go to class, (ON TIME), pay attention in class and stay on top of due dates for assignments, and read!! (y)
Great teacher. His courses are well organized and he cares about teaching. You shouldn't have any problems doing well as long as you take notes and do the HW. The tests are open note as long as the notes are hand written. Taking notes is easy because he always has slides and will answer any questions you have. I definitely recommend him.
Pete is one of the best teachers Ive ever had. His class was always enjoyable and he always found a way to make the class apply to real world events. He is very funny and charismatic and knows how to relate to students well. I learned a lot from the course, would definitely recommend to anyone.
I loved this class! He is very nice and funny. He made lecture very simple with slides and gave weekly homework which are very do-able and he always explains how to do it and gives his own examples. He allows open note tests, but even if the test were not open note, I would still take his class. Great guy! Would highly recommend.
Pete was a great professor. If I have the chance to have him again I would def take that chance. He is really nice and fair and understanding. 10/10 recommend!
Peter was great! Made business fun to learn and relates material with whats going on in the real world. All tests are open notes so make sure you write down everything he has on the slides in class (he also posts them on canvas so if you miss a day dont freak out).
Pete is an amazing teacher, whose lectures are engaging and interesting. He is super personable and helpful. I would definitely recommend his class if you are interested in business because it is super informative and helpful. All quizzes and tests are open note, and there are lots of chances for extra credit.
Pete is easily the best professor at CSM. He really knows his stuff and gives countless opportunities for extra credit. On top of that, his tests are open note. You have 3 tests and a final which is accumulative but he does drop your lowest test score. HIGHLY recommend taking Pete you really won't regret it. Super nice guy.
I hated this professor, my lowest grade was a B+, I did a bunch of extra credit papers, tutored for extra credit and did well on the final, my final grade ended up being a solid B. I never missed class and actively participated, when I asked him about my grade, he only responded my final dragged me down, he refused to show my the grade for the fina
amazing professor!
Peter is a great professor. You immediately notice that he loves to teach, and cares about his students. His quizzes are open note, and if you prepare yourself a little bit the class shouldn't be that difficult. The material can be a bit dry at times, but he spices it up with current events. PS: He loves talking about transportation and planes.
Hes seriously one of the best professors Ive ever had. If you have the opportunity to take him, do not hesitate!
Awesome teacher. He is very knowledgeable and he delivers his knowledge to the students in very interesting way. Doing home work is very important and attendance is mandatory.
Possibly the best Professor I've had in all of san mateo county district. His lectures are so engaging, that you would want to participate. If he was teaching classes that I need I would definitely take his classes.
Took Bus100 with him. Best professor at CSM. He genuinely loves teaching and wants his students to do well. All of the tests are open notes. He doesn't give homework just for the sake of it. If you show up and do the homework, this class is an easy A.
One of the best professors I have had at CSM. He's knowledgeable about the material, is engaging, and pushes for excellence. He's one of the few professors that urges students to advance themselves outside the classroom, which is often for more valuable than simply learning material for a grade. I look forward to taking more classes in the future.
Great teacher, would recommend to anyone looking to take an intro to business class or any other class with him. He could make anything fun to learn about.
The WORST teacher ever!! I came into this class expecting it to be hard but as long as you work hard and sumbit all the assignment you'll pass with an A or B. His assignments are very unclear and you have to figure out a lot on your own. Don't depend on the teacher for assistance.
Pete is literally the best teacher. I highly recommend you take his class. I'm not a business major and truthfully I find it boring but he made it interesting and he was hilarious.
Hes one of the most passionate professors that youll ever meet teaching at CSM. Take him and youll see that how well you do is up to you. If you can keep up with reading notes, participate in class and come to class on time then you can get an A. The most recent negative reviews were students in my class who didnt care about their education.
For me this is one of the best classes I ever had, The professor was really dedicated and on point, I really learned a lot in how to start and manage a small business. Thank you So much.
Great teacher who really cares about you! Straight up and has a good sense of humor.
Great teacher, lessons are interactive and entertaining, homework is managable, hes more than welcome to help you out if you need it. Theres many extra credit assignments. A great class if you like participating in discussions, current events, starting a business or want to figure out how the stock market works. I looked forward to it every week.
Very good teacher. Professors does expect a bit of homework to be done. However it is very straight foward and he doesnt grade harshly. He also provides extra credit to boos your gradde.
What an amazing professor! Pete is funny, empathetic, highly intelligent, and excellent at teaching. The homework is interesting and engaging, while remaining manageable. Thank you for this amazing experience Pete!
Extremely good professor, lectures are actually really interesting. He really ties in current events that pertain to the lectures, and makes thing really easy to understand. Tons of extra credit opportunities
As a high schooler taking a college course, this teacher made the course way easier than my current high school classes. Way less hw and he is always ready to help. Would love the chance to take any more of his classes as they are an ez A+
Teaching style made class exciting. Also understanding but doesnt let you get away with ridiculous stuff. I would take this professor again based off the vibes of the class through the entire course
I havent studied business before. He is a Extremely good professor. Thank you very much.
This professor was great and gave writing assignments that I wanted to actually engage myself in. The reading wasn't hard at all and I recommend this class!
Very good teacher. He makes sure you understand what is being taught. He makes himself available and really want you to succeed. You must read your textbook and study your notes to do well on his exams. He is approachable and definitely loves teaching. I recommend taking him
One of the best teachers I've had at CSM. His lectures are great and he really makes the most out of the subject matter, which admittedly can be boring at times. You can tell that he's passionate about both the material and his students. There's a little weekly homework and a few major assignments, and exams are easy so long as you study for them.
I LOVE PROF PETE!!! hes amazing. all your tests are open notes FYI. just make sure they are handwritten and you are set. he is nothing but amazing and I wish I could have him as a professor again. literally amazing trust me
Professor Pete is definitely one of my favorite teachers. Hes so cool and straight forward about everything and he really cares about the students. All of his tests were open notes so as long as you take good detailed notes you will do well on the tests. Hes a really funny guy and I always looked forward to his class when I had him
Dr. von Bleichert is one of the best professors I have ever had. I always enjoyed going to his class. The class overall is very manageable for a busy college student. Homework every week due on Canvas by Sunday night, a total of 4 exams, and plenty of extra credit opportunities. The exams can be challenging but they are always open notes.
Great Professor ! Has quizs after every chapter but open notes! Open notes on final and test. So write good notes. He makes business very interesting & makes the class fun.
Mr. Vonbleichert is an outstanding teacher who truly cares for his students. He clearly makes the effort and sets apart his time to help students outside of class. As a student in middle college, he is beyond the most helpful teacher. As long as you show up, dont use the phone in class, and listen, it is easy to pass the class with an A.
Dr. VonBleichert's class was my favorite. He makes lectures fun and engaging. There are quizzes after a couple of chapters but they are open notes. The final is also open note, and he offers many extra credit opportunities. He is a great teacher and I highly recommend you take his class.
Four exams all open notes. There could be pop quizzes after each chapter ends . The professor helps u achieve better grades and discusses over how you could work on that . Extra credits available. It helps a lot if you read the chapter in advance and also participate in his lectures .he also arranges field trips and extracurricular activities.
such a great teacher . peter was the best teacher that i have ever had
I loved this class and is why I want to pursue a career in business!
I was not looking forward to Business as I am a STEM major, however, Pete made this class so enjoyable! He was very clear, eloquent and helpful throughout the entire semester. You start the final project at the beginning of the semester and work on throughout so it isn't a last minute thing. The tests are open note- just read textbook. TAKE HIM!
Teacher Pete is has amazing lecturers, he inspires his student to do their best. His lectures are clear and very informative.
The class isn't difficult as long as you take notes, and there are lots of opportunity for extra credit. Professor is always available to help in office hours!
Awesome instructor. Very interactive class. Extremely knowledgeable. All information provided is current, relevant and applies to life outside of school. Definitely recommend taking any of his classes.
Online class, Main assignment was a group project
great teacher!
I really enjoyed his class. Professor Pete is amazing Professor and I would definitely recommend him to another students. Hes always accessible outside the class.I will definitely take his class again in the near future. Thank you Professor Pete!
Very responsive!
Awesome Professor! Very responsive and easy to talk too! Would definently take him again. Also, learned a lot!
Prof. Peter Von Bleichert is one of the best! Everything you'll learn in the class you can use in the real world. You'll get valuable knowledge of the subject. The professor goes above and beyond to provide the most recent and useful information. He cares about you succeeding, but, of course, you have to study for the class.
Prof VonBleichert is one of the best professors i've had at CSM. I took Bus 100 in person and Bus 401 online. When I struggled on a test I reached out and he provided feedback, gave me extra attempts with extra time. He's a caring professor who wants to work with you to make sure you succeed. We had weekly quizzes, a project and final was a test.
great teacher! I learned a lot!
Really enjoyed this class. Prof Pete is very adept online and provides a very rich and complete experience. I learned a lot in the class that I will be able to use in my career. Prof provides generous opportunity for extra credit.
All homework and quizzes are on the textbook cite, Cengage. Which I love because when taking quizzes or doing homework, if you get a bad score you can retake it usually 2-3 times. its all multiple choice. about 2-3 discussions every month and he's a very generous grader. Basically if you do the work and show effort he gives full credit. LOVE HIM!!!
Professor VonBleichert is by far the best professor I have had in my two years at CSM. You have to write a 500-word discussion every week but it's honestly not that bad. All the coursework is on Cengage which is nice because you get several tries on homework and quizzes. I definitely recommend taking any business class with him. 11/10 professor.
Professor Peter Von Bleichert is one of the best teachers I have had at CSM. His assignments, while tough at times, were always manageable and quite topical. Furthermore, he was very responsive to emails and gave great feedback on course discussions! I would definitely take a course again with him!
Easy class if you are looking for a basic understanding of business. Watching the lecture was enough for me to pass weekly quizzes. Quizzes are easy as it allows you to check if answers are correct /w no penalty. There are weekly discussions + extra credit by responding to more than the minimum. No midterm, final, papers, or projects.
The professor made the class assignments very clear as to what is expected from you each week. He also have zoom hour where if you have any questions or concerns he will be available. He usually gives feedback to your discussion and the class reading assignment is long but interesting. Quiz on every chapter and discussion every week.
Im glad I took this class, it was a very easy summer class. The assignments were very clear. We had a discussion every week and the prompt was always clear. He replies to the students discussion posts and that was helpful. If you ever have the chance to take Professor Peter Von Bleichert take him!!
This was a great class! Even though it was online the discussions were very helpful and insightful.
Prof. Pete is honestly the kindest, most understanding professor that I have personally had at CSM. Very simple class with tons of information regarding the different positions, as well as a summary of businesses as a whole. Quizzes aren't difficult at all, very understanding on late work. 10/10 must take for business (trust me)
Professor Von Bleichert is hands down the best professor you'll ever encounter in college. His dedication to his students is unparalleled. Miss a discussion? He'll reach out, genuinely concerned about your well-being, offering extensions without hesitation. Take his class without a second thought. He's a rare gem in academia.
Prof. Von Bleichert is a true standout. His dedication and support are unmatched. Whether it's reaching out after a missed class or offering extensions, he cares deeply about student success. With his guidance and tools like Unstuck ai, acing this course is a breeze.
I took three courses with Professor Von Bleichert (BUS100, MGMT100, and BUS201). He is a great,​ clear, passionate, expert, and very responsive professor. ​I enjoyed all three courses and would take other classes with him.
Such a good class would take again. It is just discussion after discussion, so it's a bit of research, and there are lots of quizzes, but everything is so easy, you just gotta focus up.
Had him a couple years ago, still remember him. He always said “anything is possible and anyone who says otherwise is just insecure about themselves” one of the best teachers I've ever had
If you plan on taking it as a late start get ready for a lot of reading each week. He never responded to a really important email so that's why I took off a point other than that pretty straightforward on what you gotta do. There's a test and a comprehension assignment for each chapter also super easy
No assignments tab so I referred to the grades tab for due dates but for discussions the first post is due the Thursday BEFORE it says. No credit for posting on the night they are due. That's about all I didn't like about the course but got used to it. The rest of the work is multiple choice work from the weekly readings and its straight forward.
