Excellent instructor! Best at UTA! Really cares for students. Will spend time with you if you need help. Deep knowledge of economics and finance. Highly recommended.
Great teaching style! He has finance background- hence he's focused on practical side. He really cares about his students. Exams only over materal covered in class- you will have to study though. Put in reasonable amount of work and you'll get A.
By far best instructor I have ever had. He's very clear and provides good examples. I love his lectures- he makes it so simple and helps you see what really matters. He's a cool guy, too. He really cares for his students. I wish he taught more classes. Four exams gives you a chance to earn bonus points and 4 or 5 quizzes - easy ones - just to motivate you to review lecture notes before next class.
I'm not a math person, but he made so easy to see how financial calculations are done. Very useful stuff for life, too. Best lectures ever!!! Helped me see what matters and what didn't. Would definitely take him again! Gives you chance to earn extra points, too. He tells you to read book - I don't even have one! Lecture is more than needed
This is my first semester at UTA and so glad that I am in his class. He is a really good instructor, he covers every material in the test. tests are not hard but require readings and understandings. He's willing to spend time with you if you have any struggle with the course. his lectures are also very practical and realistic. highly recommended.
Im Finance major and I learned more finance in this Econ class than in my actual Finance course! This guy has a real gift he knows how to teach! Very rare quality among UTA professors. Exams are tough, but you really learn stuff. 4 exams, 5 quizes, and a whole bunch of opportunities for extra points. I would definitely take him again!
One of the most amazing professors I've ever had. He cares about the success of his students, both inside and outside of the classroom. Take advantage of this man's knowledge and wisdom, he's literally inviting you to do so. Pay attention during lectures, takes notes, ASK QUESTIONS. The tests are reasonable. Not hard to pass the class.
Very helpful. he is all over the place, doesn't focus . exams are very hard. you have to read a lot. he is great for A+ students, doesn't care much for the rest. take notes
Really good teacher. You will never have a better chance to learn. He's here only for few semesters. If not discussed in class - won't come on exam. 4 exams + 5 quizzes. If you come to class and pay attention - guearanteed A! Don't waste your money for the textbook - lectures a more in depth and make more sense than textbook. Lots of bonus points!
Most amazing & inspirational professor I have ever had in my life! He has a unique gift like he was born to teach. In addition to that, I have never seen anybody so committed to make sure that students really understand the material. If you want to learn - he's your guy. If you're lazy - he may not be your best choice. Highly recommended!!!!!
three exams MCQ format, but don't make mistake - you won't guess if you don't understand material. Lots of bonus points available. Make no mistake here, he makes you earn your grade, but surely is the most amazing professor I have ever met! Don't waste your money for textbook. He derives all equations and models for you. Great teaching style, too
He is the best professor I ever met. he is really cool guy. His exams are fair. lots of bonus points. care about his students. I wish all of my professor are like him. I LOVE LOVE LOVE his teaching style.
This is a very difficult class. Expect a lot of work but if you take it seriously you will learn a lot! Professor Czajkowski is really dedicated to teaching and he is the best I have ever had. I wish he taught more courses. He explains accounting and finance and economics in one single class - this is amazing approach. Lectures are really amazing.
Professor Czajkowski is the most amazing professor I've taken! He really cares about his students, makes sure you understand. I strongly recommend this professor. Great exams and a few pop quizzes. He has a great science of humor , you will never be bored on his lectures. I hope I could take more classes with him next semester.
Good class,good and practical knowledge. You must take it seriously from day one or you will get lost. Don't worry if never took advanced courses,he will teach you all you need to know. He takes teaching seriously and is very good at it
One of the best professors at this university, TAKE HIM
This is a tough subject, read the book, more importantly show up to class and take detailed notes. There are opportunities for extra credit- take them. He reviews before tests, and goes over quizzes and tests afterward. Make sure you know know to work through the examples he gives in class and you should be fine. He is fair and reasonable.
this is by far most difficult course I've ever taken but I learned sooooo much! So worth it and would take it again! Excellent instructor!!!
Lots of bonus points though he makes you work for your grade. Lots of good examples. He really loves finance. I thought I was failing and he gave me A. One of the best instructors so far. Very helpful - will give you recommendation when you apply for a job. Really cool guy. Would definitely recommend!
One of the hardest classes I have taken yet. He really makes you think with his exams and is an amazing professor who has the passion to teach.
Arguably best professor at UTA, any major. 3 exams/quizzes, MCQ. Very forgiving on grades. Never miss class & take good notes, guarantee A. Class starts out easy then gets challenging quick. Pay attention early to the test/quiz reviews, until test 2/quiz 3 review, makes for an easy final. Feel Confused? He will stay for an hour+ after class for u.
Absolutely the best professor I have ever had. He really cares about his students, and wants you to fully understand the material. He's very easy to talk to, and is very helpful if you have any questions or are not understanding something. His grading is based upon showing up to class, participating, and showing that you make an effort.
you will never have a better chance to learn - best instructor I have ever taken
Three exams, three quizzes all MCQ - expect reasonable curve. He allowed me to make-up a missed exam - really cool guy. Most informative course I have ever had. He is really good at explaining very difficult concepts - course is mainly Finance, but different approach - he teaches you to think and understand it rather than crunch numbers. Worth it!
Would definitely recommend this guy. He's got a great sense of humor but more importantly I think he is a born teacher. All you read about him is pretty much correct. At times you will get frustrated because material is very complex, but if you do what professor asks, you will learn a great deal. I wish he taught more courses though
we had 3 exams and 3 or 4 quizzes all MCQ - exams seem tough at first but you can reason through them. His approach is teaching you to think and understand I never had a teacher like this before . This guy is a walking encyclopedia! I would definitely recommend taking his class just make sure not to skip or you will get lost
Be ready to work. Read the book. He asks bonus questions from the book and if you answer them you can get up to 10 bonus points for each exam. His tests are not easy and require a great amount of knowledge to get correct. Write down everything he says. He gives a lot of practical info that can help you in the labor market. Great Professor.
May God Bless Him! The only professor I have had who cares truly ONLY about how much and what you learn, not how well you do on the exams, because grades from his perspective do not reflect knowledge. You will learn amazing things with this professor, and fear not, for if you do your part, he will do his. This class is about learning.
Teacher is alright; the course is very tough - I took it as an elective and I do not recommend whatsoever. Taken with 3 other classes I spent a lot more time on this one elective sadly than my core classes. Teacher is good unless you say something he doesn't like. Can be rude at times.
Best instructor I had at UTA so far. Course is tough but dr. Czajkowski explains material very well. I wish he taught more courses. I highly recommend taking him. You will learn a lot and he is a really easy grader. Try not skipping class because he goes way beyond textbook. He's really cool and works around your schedule.
three exams all MCQ . At first he gave us quizzes but we were failing so he stopped and spent more time teaching. He is really good at explaining difficult material and he takes teaching seriously. I hope he never quits teaching as seriously he is by far the best instructor I had ever had. I would definitely recommend him
By far best instructor at UTA! He told us that he is considering quitting so I say take his class because you will never have a chance to really learn that stuff. Class is rather difficult but he doesn't believe in our grading system and takes it really easy . Seriously I believe this course should have a sequel. Don't skip lectures
this professor is a born teacher. Highly recommended!
keeps singing "jingle bells " when he's happy. we had three exams and four quizzes all MCQ. professor really challenges the way you think and work I never had a teacher like that before if I could I would take all my classes with him don't worry about your grade he wants you to succeed. Seriously he's one of the kind
Good teacher always available for help
MUST GO TO CLASS! If you miss even 5 minutes of this class you miss tons of information!!! He is a great teacher. Definitely cares about his students success. He teaches unlike any teacher I have ever had. Very tough subject though. YOU HAVE TO STUDY STUDY STUDY and then study some more!
God bless him for his dedication! Most challenging instructor I have ever had in my entire life. He's teaching style is incredible. He really explains all details and shows you how things are connected. You should expect lots of work but it is so worth it! I have learned so much from him. Btw, I have totally crush on him, but he's married, oh well
he's an amazing teacher - highly recommended if you really want to learn this stuff. He will make you rethink your own approach to your career and education - really one of a kind!
By far one of the best professors I've ever had! He is so passionate and truly cares about his students. This class was very difficult and you will definitely have to put lots of work in but I would do it all over again because I have learned so much!
one thing and one thing only, take THIS COURSE. It's the best teacher in UTA. His class knowledgable and you will never regert one second in your life that you took him. i think this semester or the spring semster of 2017 will be his last semester to teach in UTA. Take him Take him. As much i wrote it will never be enough of what he did in class
Best professor I've ever had, he really cares about his students and makes sure you actually understand and not just memorize the material and forget it by next week. His quizzes and test are challenging but he's not a tough grader. He takes your attendance and participation in consideration when giving you your final grade
Mind blowing amazing lectures, he's really one of the kind. Best class I have ever taken.
Just took final exam - feels like I just had a surgery on open brain. So worth it though! I love his teaching style. He really teaches Harvard level. We had two exams and 6 quizzes (generous curve on all). Exams MCQ, quiz too except for two take home projects. Really made me rethink my own approach to my education. Best professor I had ever taken!
best instructor I have ever had I wish he taught more classes
He's the best Professor - highly recommended if you really want to learn the new things, update information and practice them in real life.
Take him if you want to be successful in your college career and beyond. Really change the way you think about your education. Although his exams are tough, he curves them generously so you don't have to worry about your grades and instead focusing on studying for your knowledge. I really wish he taught more classes so I could take him again.
You will have to work in this class. Don't worry if you have no background in econ or finance - he will teach you everything from scratch. Guy is a born teacher. He really changed the way I look at my own education and career. Seriously, other instructors should take his class to learn how to teach. I wish he taught more curses. One of a kind..
I love his teaching style. He's really good in explaining difficult material. The key to success is in taking good lecture notes and working through assigned problems. He curves exams, but there's no free pass. Work systematically and you will gain valuable knowledge and skills. I would definitely take him again. Best class I took so far.
I loved his class and his teaching style!!! Best professor I have ever taken so far! Real gem among professors like he was born to teach. Don't miss his lecture because you miss tons of knowledge and skills. Thanks God he goes way beyond textbook and teaches you to think and solve problems rather than memorizing slides. Really one of a kind!!!
The best professor I've ever had. He's very inspirational that makes you change the way of thinking to your own education. Very caring and always making sure you understand the subject. This class in nature is super hard and tough materials to study, but you'll be in good hands! Don't ever miss a class. Don't!
Prof. C. is a born teacher amazing one of a kind. Tough class but I learned so much plus professor C. helps you understand how economics is connected to accounting, finance, real estate and others. Best teacher I have ever had they should give him Nobel prize for teaching. Lots of extra credit opportunities and easy grading definitely helps a lot!
6 quizes 2 exams- Curves! Material very difficult but he explains everything very well. Must come to class - if skipped falls behind. He really knows his stuff and he mastered skill of teaching. Best instructor I had so far at UTA. Must study from day one and take good notes! He makes subject very interesting -I would definitely take him again!
If you want to learn - he is the way to go. His focus is on teaching students to understand this complex material. There is no memorization in his class. He derives each equation and explains all in detail much better than textbook. Just show up and take good notes. Most effective professor I have ever seen. But you must prepare to study a lot.
Professor Czajkowski is very helpful and really cares about his students. Attendance is not mandatory, but I HIGHLY recommend to go to class. Take good notes, read textbook, participate, and you will pass.
I would recommend his class for every business major student. He will change the way you look at your education and future career. Material is complex but he delivers perfectly and doesn't cut corner. Highly highly recommended
Very difficult class but professor C. is amazing at explaining all concepts. Must come to class! And must take good notes! And must study study study and study a lot, but it is so worth it! I am changing my major because what I learned in this class. First professor in my college career who helped me understand how to succeed. Highly recommended !!
Most difficult class I've ever taken. Only 2 exams and 2 quizzes - all MCQ. He curves well but it's not an easy pass. Lectures are amazing - best teacher I have ever had in life. Prepare to work! I would definitely take him again and again! I really learned stuff in his class
Amazing guy - real pro standing out from UTA crowd. I wish more professors taught like him. Class is not easy but you learn real stuff. Must come to lecture and take good notes. Don't worry for your grades he curves well. It may hurt your self-esteem but you surely become more valuable thinker and problem solver. Best class so far!!!
Amazing Professor. Attendance is a must! You must take good notes and keep up with the readings. Yes this is a tough class, but what you will learn is worth it! I would take his class again without a doubt! I really wish more professor had his style of teaching. You will not be disappointed!
Professor C is truly one of a kind as he changed my way of thinking and inspired me to do a double major. His lectures are amazing, and he teaches you a lot of real world stuff that can help you be successful. Attendance highly advised as he teaches you stuff beyond the textbook! If you are willing to learn and put in the effort, take this class.
This class is intense and you will have to devote a lot of time to understand the material. Do not miss his lectures because they are useful and he does expand on concepts the book. He does great job giving real world examples. Show up to his lectures or you will be lost. He grades on a curve so you will pass. Extra credit is earned in class.
We had four tests in total Exams 100% from lectures so you must come to class and take good notes. Prof. C is very good at teaching but you must review and study at home. His lectures are very interactive and he provides lots of good examples. This class is not to be taken lightly. I really loved his teaching style and wish he taught more courses
Very good at explaining difficult material plus extra credit
Three MCQ exams - he really makes you think. Most important course you will take in your college career. Pay attention and take good lecture notes. I learned so much from professor Czajkowski. He's really one of the kind as he is passionate about teaching. He wants you to succeed after graduation. He's definitely the best professor I had in life
Mr. C goes above and beyond what the textbook covers & he makes it easy to understand! I love how he always gave us his thoughts about current events and his predictions, he has alot of interesting knowledge. Exams are based on his lectures so take good notes and absorb the material. He is a great guy and willing to stay hours if you need him to.
Pretty funny guy, engaging lectures. Participation in discussion helps. It is good to read the subject matter ahead of class to get a broad scope of what it going to be talked about (and makes it easy to get extra credit via participation). If you pay attention in class, you should do fine.
AMAZING!!! Best instructor I have ever had in life! He made it so easy for us (including open textbook midterm exam) . He is always willing to share knowledge (stayed with us 1-10.5 hours after class just to answer additional questions. Only instructor who had told us in advance before markets began selling off. Best expert from all UTA academics!
three MCQ exams and one quiz. 100% exam questions come from lecture. Hands down best instructor I have ever had in life. only I wish he taught more courses.
I love easy A teachers more than anything, especially where I don't have to work a lot to get it, however, this man, is amazing, where if I ever became successful in life, he'll be one of the people I can look back into my memories and thank, because not only will his lectures stick with you, it is useful for both your other classes and real world.
As a person I think he is a great guy, but as a teacher... There are only 3 tests which are extremely difficult, as a result he had to give massive curves in order for people to pass. The test are full of tricky questions and are worded very different from other tests. He writes tests differently on purpose because he doesn't agree with the system.
The class is 3 test grades, people were failing so he had to curve around 20 points. He is passionate but he made things much more difficult than they should have been.
3 MCQ exams 100% from lectures. Each class opportunity for bonus but must review previously discussed material at home to earn it. He gave us take home bonus which really helped me understand material. Exams seem complex at first but they are really simple if you study. Amazing guy he really teaches you to think. Makes you work but gives good grade
AMAZING! best teacher I ever had class is difficult but he explains well. Unlike other instructors he actually makes you think. We had three exams and couple of take home extra credit assignments and he lets you earn extra credit in lecture from previous lectures. Really cool guy with good sense of humor He really wants you succeed after graduation
3 exams+ 2 take home extra credit assignments+ lots of in class bonus. Overall I'm happy I took his class. He really wants you to learn. Final turned out to be much easier than first two exams but maybe because I actually began studying. He really pushes you in a good way. I must admit he is the best teacher I had so far at UTA
Hands down the best professor at UTA! Just come to class and absorb the knowledge he shares with you. He will make you think, he will make you question, he will make you better version of who you are. I would take him again and again only if he had time to teach more classes. At first it may hurt your self-esteem, but then you actually win!!!
He's a great professor that actually cares that you learn something in his class instead of memorizing the material. He is understanding and applies his lectures to real world. (Which is great, because half that stuff we learn in Campus aren't applicable). There's 2 test plus the final. Some bonus hwk too. READ! STUDY! and you'll be fine.
Rafal is "not a professor within the realm of academia" as he will state in class at first. Its because he trains you on how to critically think for yourself rather than memorize a bunch of useless stuff. He actually holds a very high corporate position that serves as a testament to his vast experience. id take him again and again. 10/10
One of the kind! Best instructor at UTA
HE'S THE BEST. HANDS DOWN. ATTENT LECTURES, TAKE NOTES OR RECORD ECTURES, CURVES GENEROUSLY. YOU WILL PASS THIS CLASS AS LONG AS YOU ATTEND ANND TAKE NOTES. HE IS A WALKING ENCYLOPEDIA.
He is a great professor. He will challenge you to think critically and know the material. He is willing to work with students to help them learn the material. However, you have to make a concerted effort. If you don't attend class, then you will not pass. If you really want to learn, then you will love this class.
Absolutely devoted to explaining the intricate details and workings of the systems youre tested over; attendance to lecture will perfectly prepare you not only for this class but also a couple courses afterward.
Czajkowski is THE best professor I've ever taken in my life. Lectures are very informative and creative in the way it is delivered. You will have to work in this class. The content and exams are difficult and are lecture heavy but he makes it worth it. As long as you try, you will pass. Many love him, others just don't understand him. TAKE HIM!
Great professor helps his students however he can. You need to study seriously if you want to make a good grade.
Study a lot or you won't pass. There are 3 quizzes, 3 exams. No extra credit. Final is cumulative. He grades based on your improvement throughout the class. You must prove that you truly understand the concepts. He cares about your learning, so much so that it is highly difficult to succeed unless you dedicate a lot of hours towards learning.
Czajkowski is one of the best profs I have taken since school went online. He cares more about our intellectual development than just our letter grades. for my course, he just posted lectures we could access at anytime. 3 exams, 3 quizzes, and a final. I would recommend reading the textbook and watching his lectures if you want to do well.
I do not usually rate professors, but this guy is amazing. At first, like many others have said you will not like this guy. I cried after my first test grade, but in the end I almost made a perfect score on the final exam. Just do what he tells you to do, and COME TO CLASS. He may seem arrogant at first, but I can assure you he is very humble.
He gives extra points for you reading the textbook and answering his questions. But most importantly is to read the textbook and attend his lectures. He wants us to learn not from the student's POV, but how it applies to the real world.
One of the best professors i've ever had. His material is difficult but he truly helps and wants his students to learn. Do not worry about your grade just participate in class and actually try. If you participate he will give you extra credit points just for answering questions. Definitely recommend him!!!
Czajkowski is by far the best professor I've had at the College of Business. You must come to lecture, because his tests make sure you understand the material well. He cares and wants you to take an active role in your learning. Don't worry about your grade, he rewards hard work and dedication. Seems rude at first, but he's just direct and honest.
He is difficult to understand at times during his lectures. The Exams are more of Critical Thinking instead of what was covered in the chapters. His class participation to earn points are considered by answering his questions during lecture. Asking questions about lecture are not considered participation in class. Overall, I wouldn't recommend him
Professor Czajkowski is one of the best professors I have ever taken and he is extremely knowledgable over this subjects along with many others. Come to class and record lectures or else you will not do well on the exams. He gives bonus points for participation which will bring your letter grade up immensely.
He's a born teacher able to explain very difficult topics in a very simple way. Other professors should take his class to learn teaching profession. I wish he taught more courses. I ended up with B by my own fault. He gave us plenty opportunity for extra credit. He makes you earn your grade but in a good caring way. Really good guy afterall.
He is alright. His exams are VERY lecture-based, so you have to understand EVERYTHING he talks about in order to do well. He does teach interesting information from finance and accounting on top of economics, but he also makes sexist comments, mentions his wealth countless times, and talks about his right-wing beliefs at least 3 times a lecture.
Professor Czajkowski is an excellent instructor who makes even the most difficult concepts understandable. Attend lectures, participate actively, and use unstuckstudy alongside the free textbook - that's the recipe for success in this class.
BEWARE, GOOD RATINGS DON'T MEAN EASY CLASS! This class was not what I expected, but overall I am satisfied with the course. Professor Czajkowski wants you to think for yourself so you can succeed later. SPEAK UP in class for bonus points and attend lectures to pass. Give the same effort to studying as he does teaching.
EXTREMELY HARD COURSE. He is very knowledgeable in ECON and you will learn a lot, but if you're just looking to pass the class pls don't take him. He goes off topic often about things not related to the class. Exams are really difficult. If you're not taking many other classes give him a chance, otherwise take literally anyone else.
