Weekly quizzes were slighlty difficult, but not too bad as long as you studied. You get full credit if you get a 90% or above on Aplia assignments. Final was basically material from the quizzes. Lectures were slow at times, but he does do some activities, and gives some extra credit. Attendance isn't mandatory, but he gives out worksheets randomly

His class was really easy. I got all my quizzes above 90%. He didn't require essay in the class. Final exam was pretty easy also. He did not like use textbook, but he would give you all the note during class. I got 4.0 in this class~

I took this class during the Winter as a prerequisite course for pharmacy school. I usually have a lack of interest in business related studies, but I feel that I actually learned from this class. I was taking two 200 level biology classes at the same time and still managed to 4.0 this class. Really easy if you study.

I do learn some from his class. He is very hard working!

Weekly discussions are a real pain it could be articles, podcasts, or videos that you have to listen to and post in the discussion forum. The midterm hardly had any material from the homework or book which was incredibly frustrating. Avoid this teacher (especially the online class) if you can

He gives quizzes once in two weeks and assigns news article analysis twice throughout the quarter. The quizzes won't be as challenging if you study the study guide beforehand. He marks attendance randomly so the idea of skipping class isnt good. His class is worth taking, thats why im taking his class again for Econ 201.

I feel his passion on him. He gives many chances of extra credits and I actually learned a lot from him. One thing is he only expects what exactly he teaches on exams. If you miss small steps he taught then it marks the score down. I am gonna take him again for econ 201!

Sam Le is a great economics instructor for a few reasons. He is willing to help you understand tough economic concepts if you take the time to seek him out. Also, the quizzes follow the format of problems he gives for practice in class. Take good notes, attend every day (random attendance points), and put in the hard work. You will learn a lot.

Hes overall a great teacher!

Sam's lecture are super clear. I didn't have to read the book to understand the topic. He would give many practice questions in order to prepare us for the exam. Although he's kinda strict on punctuality, I still recommend other students to take his class

I had taken a hybrid class; we didn't have class Fridays and would just post in a discussion/ take a quiz that day. The quizzes were fairly easy depending on whether or not you completed that week's assignment/chapter. Lectures were and Mr. Le made sure to answer all of your questions in person as well as email. Respond time to emails is quick.

He is a very very nice man. As long as you follow the lecture carefully, you get the whole concept. DO NOT SKIP ANY CLASS. If you do not clear about something. ASK IMMEDIATELY, he is willing to answer those. EXAMS WILL BE HARD. Require critical thinking, do not expect something easy.

His lecture is super clear. Please pay attention to EVERY SINGLE WORD he says in class to pass with a high score. All point counts. Do not expect to make up past due assignment. He give Extra Credit.

Take the class. He really makes you study. He is a nice prof.

His tests are difficult, so be prepare to study hard in this class. Overall, Sam is a nice instructor.

Le is a great professor from whom you will learn a lot. I agree, his quizzes are very difficult, but if you come to class every day, read the articles and the textbook, try to get all of the extra credit opportunities, you will be fine. You do not have to get full points for the quizzes because it is pretty much impossible. But he explains well.

Mr. Le is a tough professor! You will not be able to get away with a good grade if you IDLE! Be prepared to study and keep the track of the class. He is a big help anytime you need an assist. If you manage your time and deliver your assignments on-time, this is the class you WANNA take!

The most important part you need to pay attention is the exam. He seldom smiles and is strict with the order during the class. Other things is fine.

Contrary to what many people said about Mr. Les class, it isnt that difficult if you pay attention in class. Mr Le is able to deliver clear lectures. I never read the textbook and I got 3.9 for this class! Come to class everyday, do all your homework and make sure you take all the extra credits given- they will save your grade from the tough exam

He's very good at economics and he expects his students to be as good as he is. If you want to actually learn economics, I recommend him. Don't expect a 4.0 if you're not willing to work your ass off. DON'T TAKE IT IN THE SUMMER! This class single-handedly dropped my overall GPA from 3.97 to 3.90

Easy tests. Online homework is quick.

This is my second time taking Mr Le's class, and I must say that I genuinely enjoyed this class. He made lectures very clear and easy to understand such that you don't have to read the textbook to understand the concepts. His exams are difficult, but nothing too unmanageable if you understand the concepts well. I would recommend taking his class.

He is the real teacher who you can actually understand and learn the topic that he teaches. Tests are hard but he gives out a lot of extra credit's opportunities.

He is a very very very good professor! He teaches a lot of useful knowledge!!!Very helpful teacher and The lecture is well organizedI really like the videos he put on the canvas, explaining everything very carefully, which is very useful for my economic life! If you really want to learn something, take his class!

nice man. After two exams ,I felt he really taught something useful! But I need to say,it is needed very very hard work. If you cannot get a good grade,that is not professors mistakes, its because you dont work hard. He has already warned everyone at the first class,this is not a easy one. If you dont want to learn, just go away.

He gave a lot of extra credits. Sometimes his exam is tricky. Do your best!

There were fewer extra credits compared with ECON 202. The exam was also very difficult. This class required fast reading and calculation. Don't give up!

One word: work. This class is a ton of work. Weekly discussions, hours upon hours of homework, and lots of videos to watch that teach you to do everything. Overall its manageable if you have discipline. If you can not manage your time in order to get everything done, be sure to do the biweekly extra credit. It helps a ton. Quizlets help too!

He is the best instructor ever I have met in GRCC. His lecture is university-level. He explains idea very clearly and straightforward. If you are the kinds of students who come to class everyday and listen well in the class, I promise you will get an easy 4.0 in his class. Plus, you have to put effort in this class.

Really excellent teacher -- highly reccomend. Very comprehensive and easy to pass.

He is a good and carried teacher. He answers every question you are concerned about. He provides detailed plus helpful lectures, instructions, and homework to help you understand the material. Homework and tests are heavy and similar. They contain lots of questions, but they help. You will have discussions every two weeks, and they are pretty fun.

He is a great teacher. You can easily get a perfect score if you work hard after he changed his grading criteria.

AWESOME! EASY TO PASS RIGHT NOW!

His lectures are very fun to attend, hilarious dad jokes. Although he gives lots of hmwrk, he also gives you a whole week for them. As long as ur ahead of the game, you will pass and do good! Don't wait till the last minute! A 4.0 is really hard to earn, but possible!

I don't think Professor Le is a bad professor. He is strict in his grading rules but besides that, his class is set up in an easy format. Half of the quiz questions have questions from the chapter review assignments. I got a 4.0 in both Econ 202 and 201, and I didn't think that would happen.

Mr. Le is a solid professor. They may be a lot of homework during the week and each reading requires long test reviews, but it is all for your benefit for the real tests he assigns. He's also pretty organized, which I found very helpful. Discussion post participation is heavy but as long as you do the required work, it's a pretty easy pass!

Got a 4.0 I think the course is harder than him as a professor himself and doing it all online is probably doesnt help too as well. Hes a good guy though and is extensive when u ask questions but just a hard course in general.

I think he is kind. The only problem I have with this course is most of the class is self-taught. He makes lectures mandatory but I don't learn a lot because it seems very rushed. He only lectures on half the material and expects you to learn through the textbook and online homework. It's not that bad but thankfully this isn't calculus.

This class wasn't that hard. I enjoyed learning the material. The prof helped us with calculations and concepts during the lecture and we had to read up on the material ourselves. There was a lot of work, but he gave enough time to complete them. You have to be good at memorizing the entire book to do good on the quizzes. He doesn't grad harshly

There's a lot of work, just stay on top of it. If you want to take econ 201, don't take it in the summer because the quizzes test 3 chapters. There are a lot of calculations and not much time. You don't get partial credit. I would take this class in fall, winter, and spring when classes are 8 weeks long.

Prof is super nice/helpful/funny/flexible. He really knows his stuff, which is why his explanations of anything are always good. He gives easy/relatable examples to anything U feel that U are stuck on. Plz ask questions if you want to get a good grade. Lectures r mandatory. Only con= TB costs $114.

Amazing Prof. There was a total of 4 quizzes in his summer quarter: each covered two weeks worth of topics (1-3 chapters of TB). TB chapters were relatively short. All quizzes are made up from majority of HW review assignments/quizzes are open notes and two hours with 60-80 questions. Make sure to do all of extra credit or else you can't get a 4.0

Professor Le is honestly a really good instructor. Although he gives a lot of homework that isn't worth that many points, he also provides a lot of extra credit and gives feedback if you ask for it. The only downside is probably the website you have to pay ~$100 for, but other than that, I'd recommend taking his class. :)

This goes for every class: if you aren't gonna put in the effort, you aren't gonna get a good grade. Prof Le is funny/caring/super nice. If you do all the work before Friday, you will have an easy time. He genuinely wants his students to learn/help them understand topics they are having trouble with. DO NOT PROCRASTINATE IN THIS CLASS!

Mr. Le is a pretty good professor. I will admit his teaching style won't suit everyone but it worked well for me.

I enjoyed how clear this class was. Assignments were very helpful in learning and the class was formatted in an organized way. Some instructors seem to struggle with online teaching but not this one. I learned a lot here.

Sam taught this class well and was straight to the point. Do hw early/make sure you understand the hw questions bc they will be on exams. He does office hours by appointment. If you put in the effort, you WILL get an A. Ppl try to find the "easy way out" and MISERABLY fail. Make sure to ask questions if you are confused bc he will walk you through.

The online textbook site (McGraw Hill) used for HW/studying is expensive and expires within a few months, so I made the most out of it: I took econ 202 one quarter and took econ 201 the next quarter. Take 202 first bc it's personally more fun/a bit easier to understand than 201. DON'T ever think you can do all the assignments on the due date.

Bruh he literally has dad jokes in every lecture and lets ppl ask questions after lectures even though he has a very tight schedule. He is really patient and is a good professor. I am not sure why some reviews say he treats you dumb?! He literally answers every question with an example so that you can understand!

I noticed in the summer term, the number of assignments you have to do is less than other semesters. Regarding the 2 quizzes, it was 87-89 questions in 2 hours, which is the part I didn't like the most in the course, because there were too many questions and not enough time to do the test. Overall, he is so - so professor

He is actually super intelligent and worth it to take his class. But he is also very strict professor. Do not be late and do not cheat on his class. He will definitely know what you did. And be honest with him.

I took him for both 201 and 202. For 201's lessons, it was a bit difficult for me but with Professor Sam's help, I managed to pull through. However, beware that you have a lot of assignments to do and late work is not accepted. I always emailed him and he still replied at a good rate although his 201 class has an in-person test.

Good teacher and enthusiastic and gives lots of good examples, but has attitude when asking one on one questions. You read 10 chapters and TB cost $130 and each week you read one chapter and have 4 assignments that took 4ish hours for me. He has lectures using pear deck and gives extra credit for lectures which help. Have to study a lot to succeed.

A strict but fair teacher. Lecture heavy but actually taught me the material unlike other Econ teachers I've had. Provided extra credit after the exam. Had a solid amount of homework each week, but it doesn't matter what grade you got as long as you did it. He was lowkey funny. Would take him again.

Derisive, irritable, and irascible.

Professor Le is strict but fair. The workload is heavy, but the lectures are engaging and the material well-explained. Unstructured study tools like Unstuck ai helped me stay on top of things. Overall, a challenging but rewarding class.

I don't really know why everyone doesn't like Sam. I hate school and only was taking this class for a high school credit but it wasn't even bad. Yeah the class is boring but it's free. He basically gives you all the answers to the in class stuff, the homework is online and there are 2 exams which are the hardest. Just show up and it's very easy.

I take Samuel Le's class for Economic 100 online. The best thing was that it was only doing 4 quizzes rather than exams, which had shaped how I learn. While focusing on other classes has been easier. The workload was not as much, but if anyone desires to take his classes. I suggest working on the textbook material that will help you on the quiz.
