Knows his stuff. Good lecturer.

You would be a fool not to select him as your teacher (if you were given the opportunity). He has a lot of real world examples/experiance so he speaks of what he knows. Often strays away from the textbook which sucks because the final is ALL textbook.

He's really funny. Difficult exams and project...especially because he gives NO info about both. But he is entertaining.

fun teacher, lots of interesting stories. exams are hard, multiple choice purely textbook and since he doesn't really teach directly from textbook... the essay questions are ok tho.

Seem very tough at the beginning, but very nice human being. If u go see him in his office, he will help u in everything. He picks on students in class and u better prepare before going to class...he'll make the class very interesting by embarassing your fellow class mates.

What a funny guy! but his class is not easy to follow...

Very interesting class. Professor Soroka is very interesting, not to mention funny. He really makes the class fun, but I wouldn't consider this to be one of my easiest classes.

Professor Soroka is a very tough instructor but is nonetheless very helpful, informative and actually quite funny. Clearly if you're looking to 'breeze' through this course without putting in the appropriate effort, then you are dreaming in technicolour.For all you people who think he is hot...U ALL should be LOBOTOMIZED!!He is the epitome of NERD.

For those of you saying he's a hard marker is because you simply didnt study/read the book. You HAVE to read the book for this class no matter who your teacher is. The multiple choices all come from the book. Soroka is an amazing teacher, he's fair and not to mention pretty funny. You'll have to work for your grade but not more than any other class

STUDY (do you reading etc), and ATTEND class-you'll be fine. Get to know him. Ask questions. Go see him @ office. He's EXTREMELY helpful and likes to see you actively wanting to learn. His exams are M/C (all text) Essays (his notes). If he spends time talking about something ITS ON EXAM! He's funny as hell. I got an A. But i didnt slack either!

Great teacher, great person. Will help you with real life problems!!! He's involved with other institutions such as YES. Fantastic lectures, fantastic stories! Entertaining!!!

Prof. Soroka is fantastic. I agree with previous ratings with reading your material and ATTENDING HIS CLASSES. He is an entertainer and his stories are great and is always there to help you. Prof. Soroka is a great professor and I hope I will be able to take future classes with Professor Soroka. I recommend him.

He is a great presenter, very qualified and interesting. His exams are not that bad but he is a tough grader. Worked hard and got an A- .. you can too.

After having just graduated, I can honestly say that Soroka is the best prof at Concordia!!!!

I think he is a great teacher. His exams are a little hard but he is very approachable and extremely nice. I would recommend him.

Great prof! Great lectures! Where is all the negative stuff coming from??

This is a very good teacher. Half the material he teaches is related to the book, and half to current/past real-life experiences. Yeah he doesnt always follow the material in the book.... but you dont need him for that!! The book is very well written and if u hard u'll get a good grade. Fair grader too. very helpful and enthousiastic. Reccomend!

...Yeah, it was probably Soroka himslef. But dude, I hear ya. I worked my ass off too, and nothing! Like u said, as guys, we have nothing to gain by it, cuz even tho chicks think he's hot, it doesn't help us in any way.

Grade teacher, I enjoyed taking this course. Midterm was hard but taught me alot for the final. Help was always available. Take his class you will enjoy it.

Two quizzes and midterm were reasonable. And also it is possible to get a good grade on the project (worth 20%) So overall, it is quite possible to get an A in his class. He talks a lot and he is funny. I think you'll enjoy his class...

Could stand to give a bit more feedback on tests and projects. Also, has a tendency to talk really fast, so it can be hard to take notes. He is, however, very good about replying to questions and emails, and will make every effort to meet you if you need help. He has interesting anecdotes and a good sense of humour, so it's fun to go to class.

He was intersting and made class go by quickly. Going to class is almost never as good as reading the book- all these people complaining they had to read the book- there is alot of material he explained it, but can't cover it all in detail! He knows his stuff and is available regardless of the fact he teaches like 15 classes!

Great teacher, makes the material interesting, fair maker, though you need to be prepared to work. Highly recommended

Phenomenal! Clear explanations, professional demeanor, great sense of humor...#1!

Although this class consists of a lot material and work required from you, Prof Soroka is a very knowledgable man. He is very approchable and willing to help. In class, he gives real life examples which help put the material into context and his sense of humor is a plus!

READ THIS COMMENT AN NO ONE ELSE'S IF YOU REALLY WANT THE TRUTH!!! I have taken Soroka in CEGEP for some marketing courses, and I absoloutely HAD to take him again at Concordia! Exams are straight from the book - so READ! Lots of feedback on group projects (regardless of other comments here) and very knowledgable in his field- MUST TAKE HIM!

Three words: Funny, Fair, and Knowledgeable. If that is what you are looking in a teacher, Soroka is your best candidate! Some might say he is a hard marker, but it is only because he wants you to do better and if you don't, then you deserve that grade!

Great teacher. Fair marker.

DUDEE this teacher rocks.. though i might not have gotten a good grade, i still had a blast in his 8a.m classes.. funny, helpful, exxxxtremely knowledgable.. highly recommend him.. he organizes his teaching material exactly like the book so be sure to have the book with you or his SLIDES which were helpful as well..!!

This teacher is AWESOME...attend class take notes and youll have a really good grade on the essay part of the exam...multiple choice is from the book so go on the booksite and practice there...GREAT TEACHER 845 class is a blast with him

Best teacher I've had at Concordia up to date. The material is tough and the midterm is hard - But you'll get the same in any other Mark class. Prof. Soroka is super interesting and has a lot of life experience in the field. Classes are great because he lectures rather than read off slides. Definitely recommend!!!

I cannot complain about this guy. He's very approachable, explains concepts clearly, his midterm/final are very fair- he takes the MC questions from the text book data bank so you really need to read the text for those but his essay questions are simple and straightforward he also believes in giving perfect grades unlike many other JMSB profs.. A++

Prof. Soroka is very knowledgeable! He cares about his students and responds to emails very quickly! Take him, you won?t regret it!

Clear explanations, real world application, and very approachable.

Excellent teacher, has a strong reputation and can be very helpful. Take him, you won't regret it!

Simply the best prof at Concordia. Very knowledgeable, with real industry experience. Excellent lectures. Real world applications that makes theory understndable. Be prepared to work. Good students love him, but if you are not interested in working, find another class.

He is an amazing teacher. Though his midterm is harder than some other sections, its the same format as the final so you know what to expect for the final. Many people who take this teacher find the final much easier as we are more prepared. Very helpful.

Overall alright teacher. The lectures were extremely boring. His project guidelines were clear, definitely can get a good grade if you work for it. Teacher is approachable but don't get on his bad side. He really prepares you well for the final since his midterm uses the exact same format.

Very knowledgeable! But only teaches theories in his class, does not spend time on preparing exams. A fair grader.

He is very knowledgeable, is passionate which is refreshing compared to most teachers at JMSB. HOWEVER, he is definitely the hardest marker out of all the other 305 teachers. Group project grades were ridiculously low even though our group worked extremely hard. I would take him again but do not expect an A. grades are fairly low

Amazing knowledge on organisational behaviour. Has experience in the subject being a consultant himself. Very interesting man, if you listen you will never be bored

Extremely inspirational teacher. He is very knowledgeable on the field and gives great real life examples. The class material is super boring, but he excels at making it interesting. He really cares about his students and their future.

This teacher is the BEST teacher I ever had at JMSB hands down. Very explicative, very helpful and quick to respond to student's needs/emails. Book is a must. But he's a very fair grader. His stories relate so well with the material. He's passionate, motivated, real, wow! BEST EVER! Class from 5:45-8 pm not easy, but he's wort it! trust me!

A knowledgeable teacher who cares about his students genuinely and grades fairly.

Amazing teacher!!! I wish Concordia had more teachers like him! I would definitely take it again :)

I took him for Intro to Administration. He is a good teacher, he has a lot of great stories about law and likes to make the class participates in discussions. He is a rather fair grader for the midterm and the final but he graded the group project harshly. Be sure to read the book!

His class if filled with anecdotes that are always relevant to the material he's talking about, giving real life experiences. He doesn't always teach the stuff from the textbook, so you have to read the book. He tells you you how to prepare for the midterm, and is an easy grader. He looks for "key words." makes the class laugh. Lots of credentials

Semester isn't over yet I feel the need to make a comment. Prof Soroka is THE BEST PROF EVER. Literally. I have never laughed in a lecture to the point of crying. He will teach you stuff that you'll remember after the final. Always gives real-life examples. You are SO lucky if you have the option to have him as a Prof. TAKE HIM without a doubt!!!

absolutely loved him, only class this semester i actually looked forward going to. he's fun and makes class enjoyable and is also really good at teacher. learnt a lot

Good teacher. Funny. Goes on tangents, but they are related to the material. Big group project at the end. You will notice the fact that he seems to have had every job in the world, you and your group might even keep a tally. A lot to know, so read the book and go to class! But seriously, big group project.

One of the best teachers that I've had. He is very caring, and his lectures are very interesting. He really cares about his students, and wants them to succeed. Would recommend him without any doubt.

You won't regret taking him for 223. He cares about his students and is very understanding. Review the test bank for this course and you'll be golden for the midterms & final. Group project is an easy way to boost your mark & make sure to attend class for 10% participation. Overall great prof, would take him again in a heartbeat.

Loved his class, class is mandatory because of pop quizzes, but he is a very fair grader. He actually teaches the subjects and gives a lot of ancedotes to help you out.

AMAZING teacher. One of the best I've had so far in university. It was very enjoyable attending his classes for 223. Everything on midterm and final was viewed in class. He goes over everything many times and tries to ensure everyone understands the material. Very funny guy, easy to talk to. Definitely recommend. Would love to take him again.

One of my favorite professors so far since I've been in JMSB! He will help you succeed as long as you help yourself too. Participation is key! He loves making class an interactive environment, 100% recommend!!!

Soroka is actually a pretty good teacher considering he will often divert away from the boring old slides and use the examples in the context of his personal experiences of working. Midterms were graded decently tough though and he does do pop quizzes and sometimes if he sees nobody is in class he will take attendance for participation grades

I found him to be a fair grader. If you have any issues with the assignments you can email him. He did not have fixed office hours but he is willing to set up zoom meetings if you ask. Also, we were not pressured to turn on our cameras like some other classes that I have had.

He is an amazing public speaker so you will actually listen in class. I took this class because I wanted to, but if you have no interest for it, it may be rough. He is a very knowledgeable prof and give some good advice. He definitely makes you work hard for a good grade though.

Amazing professor! He's honestly my favourite teacher at Concordia I managed to take him twice for two different courses. He gives real life examples and explains everything so well that it makes you wanna participate in class every time. Fair grader, gives good feedback, very caring, very responsive. I highly recommend professor Soroka!

Prof Soroka clearly cares about his students and does his best to ensure that everything is clear when it comes to tests, assignments, etc... He makes himself available on request for questions and really goes out of his way to make sure that his classes receive support. His lectures are all available in advance for those looking to read ahead.

Nico soroks the eggster. Him hes a beast. Would stun anyday of the week.

Good to listen to in class, very enjoyable and not much preparation needed. Group project descriptions can be very confusing however. That said, he does answer emails quickly, which I respect a lot.

Great teacher, I would take his class again. The material for COMM 205 is common sense so it's an easy course.

Skeptical since he has bad reviews but he wasnt bad. 2 quizzes and assignment are fairly easy. Harsh grader when it comes to the essay part in the exams since he said 'if i cant see then it's not there'. Hard to argue for extra marks but i was able to get extra marks for both exams. overall, good lecture

He doesn't use the book but gives you tips for the exam so you'll still do well. He is nice and brings people into classes you'll get free stuff

I enjoyed listening to his stories in class, it made the course itself more interesting! If you follow the grading criteria in the course outline and pay attention in class you have no reason to do poorly on assignments. He gives many hints in class, but you also have to do your part and read the textbook.

Although some people may not like his teaching style, I found it refreshing for an otherwise boring class. His personal stories from his professional career kept the class engaging and although he may seem a little blunt and dry, if you show a basic level of effort and respect he'll treat you fairly.

I enjoyed Mr. Soroka's lecture, as he explained the marketing concepts via vivid examples. The textbook is not mandatory, but it helps a lot, and it's easy to read. He is the only professor willing to provide feedback on the exam results (2 quizzes and midterm) by going through all the questions.
