Good professor, nice, and easy. Just do what he asks. I liked it very mush.
An awesome professor. Takes his work seriously and wants his students to learn. A paper, midterm, and final. Just do the work and you'll be fine.
A great prof. I would recoomend him to everyone. A sweetheart and is always willing to help out his students.
This professor really knows his stuff. He is very laid back and listens to his students. His work is not hard at all and his exams are pretty easy.
although his accent was a barrier at times, his information and weekly presentations were helpful
He is nice, respectful, and cute. Knows his subject, teaches well and very very fair; always give you extra credits.
This professor teaches very well and treats you with total respect. He expects you to work but it pays. Highly recommend.
He is a nice guy, and his classes are interesting sometimes, but it is a lot of confusing work. He isn't clear about assignments and the formats of the test, his notes are unstructured and I recommend getting a tape recorder. Tough grader. All in all, you gotta keep up with the work and reading all materials.
This is the worst class I have ever taken in my life. This guy is absolutely ridiculous: "study your ass off, or fail". Horrible...
Dont listen to these people i hate school, he lets u know exactly what is going on 1mid term (gives questions) 1paper (not hard or long) and final (gives advice which bascially is questions)good class nice guy knows his stuff one class of no problems i promise
easy A highly recommend gives questions for midterm and final take his class easy A
this prof is the best... he does all powerpoint classes and keeps them on e reserves so u can refer back to them one presentation in class a midterm and the final is all u will get from him and he is an easy grader i got an a in the class.. HE is the best
I loved this professor!!!!! He is one of the best professors at JJ. IF YOU NEED A CRIMINAL JUSTICE CLASS TAKE HIM.
he is a wonderful professor he tells you everything from the start so there are no suprises he funny an acent but he explains himself well .....you should take his class its easy if u hand in ur work participate and go to class ur good
Take him, so cool, knows his stuff. One presentation(powerpoint), midterm, final, and a final paper. Guys is smart Russian army,canadian state police, and now teacher, and speaks like 4 languages!!LOl. Kewl easy going just pay attention in class to his lectures, he posts them on e-reserve so you can use them on your own time!
I loved him! He was very helpful and very interesting to listen to. I definitely recommend taking his class.
This is a great teacher....One of the best techers i had so far....
best prof. tries his best to make his students understand the material and gets A's
i totally recommend taking his class. he is very indeed helpful & the exams are fairly easy. his russian accent is funny but whatever. best class i ever taken so far
An extremely intelligent individual that provides well structure and organized lectures. The professor is eager to respond to inquiries and is very professional. It was a pleasure to have attended his lectures and I recommend this professor to anyone seeking an informative or positive educational experience.
Great professor. Pretty interesting class, has an accent but most of the time is understandable. Gives questions for midterms a day before and gives suggested questions for Final. One quick power point presentation. Great guy and easy grader, gives a bunch of extra credit. A must take professor
very good prof. highly recommended if you want to get As because gives extra credit work and he is in the overall GREAT very helpful and offers students time
Very nice professor. tries to help you and gives you the opportunity to work harder.
I took his intro to crim justice class online. Everything is outlined from day 1 and his course is easy to follow. Theres only a handful of online discussions, 2 tests, a midterm, a final, and a 5 page paper. Everything is done online, except the paper which he must have a hardcopy of. I defintly recommend him for his online classes
Whoever gave him a bad score needs to go back to HS asap. One of the nicest and easiest professors at JJ. He helps you in any way that he can. He posts all his powerpoints on e-reseve (as well as the midterm questions). We had 1 midterm, 1 paper, 1 group presentation and 1 final. He gives you extra credit for participation in class! He's great!
I can not get enough of this professor, any class he teach I'm right there. Don't you wonder why? He is just aweasome!! Best professor in Criminal Justice that JJC has
I can not get enough of this professor, any class he teach I'm right there. Don't you wonder why? He is just aweasome!! Best professor in Criminal Justice that JJC has
Took him during Winter session. Online class only. Easiest A ever. EVER! It was his first online only class and it was a breeze. Used blackboard and textbook only. He asked us to write a paragraph on two out of 6 topics for the chapters. Did this about 8 times. Don't think he actually read them. Tests are open book and M/C. Got A! Easiest A!!

Online class. Very easy, just do all the bboard discussions, open book quizes, midterms and finals! One final paper, very easy. just do the work!
I took this class online for the summer session. It was a very easy A. There were 5 discussion questions all due by the end of the semester (easy). There were two 15pt quizzes and a final. He let's you know everything way in advance and easy to follow.
He thinks hes funny when really he's not, but its hard to hate him. He is a cool teacher but he's boring. The class work is fair and he understands if we have other work to do and he rarely gives homework. Only problem,he has an accent which is hard to understand.
People don't get intimidated by the level number. With this professor you can take 1000 level class, & still get an A. OMG!!!! It is a shame that he doesn't teach grad courses.
Best teacher ever the only problem is he only gives you one day for the exam/quiz unlike other professor where they give you a week or so. Overall i would recommend him to everyone very nice and helpful definitely very knowledgable in all subjects and will respond to your email right away. he will always let you know if he would not be available
YOU MUST TAKE THIS CLASS ONLINE, AN EASSSYYY A+. EVERYTHING IS LAID OUT FOR YOU FROM DAY ONE.TEXTBOOK IS A MUST, NOTICE HOW I SAID YOU DIDNT HAVE TO READ IT. YOU HAVE ALL DAY TO TAKE THE EXAM. HE ALLOWS YOU TAKE THE EXAM THREE TIMES IF YOU WANT.
Awesome teacher, explained the material clearly. I would reccomend him to anyone.
I'm in his online class this semester and he is great! Everything is laid out for you in the beginning and you know exactly what he wants. I've gotten all points possible so far so I'd say it's a pretty good/easy class.
This was an easy course, Professor Cheloukhine replies to e-mails quickly and he posts our grades for posts quickly. You get 3 tries for each quiz/test. 3 tries for the midterm and 1 for the final. The work load is more than reasonable and he is a fair grader. I wouldn't hesitate to take another class with him.
Changed his class format. All Quizzes/Midterm/Final are 1 try only with a 2 hour time length. Its either you know your material or not or can look it up fast enough in your book. Multiple choices/Fill in the blanks. 10 Discussion board questions.
Quizzes, Midterm and Final are all one shot. You have a 2 hour time length it complete it. All multiple choice/fill in the blank answers. You will have to have the textbook in front of you to do all of these, trust me. You have to remember dates, percentages, etc. 10 discussion board questions as well.
This professor was my mentor at the same time! Always giving me words of advice! Encouraging me all the way. Simply him!! He cares for US!! Well recommended!! Extra credits, one final & one mid+ a paper:)
Great Prof, took two classes with him. Very clear and consistent, will take his 400 class. If you do it right no problem as someone commented there. Easy grader.
Lectures, shows power point presentations, and answers questions that you have. Gave 1 online exam, 1 in class final, 1 presentation, and 1 paper. Very hard to fail his class, you just need to read and pay attention to his lectures.
this is the way an online course should be ran. 10 discussion boards, half were posted for first 5 weeks then last 5 were due at the end of the semester. two quizzes midterm and final. 2 attempts at all tests. very easy A if you use your head and you will learn a lot. Cheloukhine is the man!
Very easy class and makes sure you pass. 1 presentation and a take home midterm and final. If you fail it's your own fault. Def knows his stuff, worked prior with interpol and other agencies in cyber and credit card fraud crimes. Very knowledgeable. Overall great prof
One month class, a lot to learn and prof was extremely helpful and get you thru for a good grade; recommend
Professor Cheloukine's online class is a great one. There were about 10 discussion boards where you had to write a response and also comment on someone else's response. There were also only 2 quizzes, the midterm, and the final. He is very clear on what he wants in your responses and he grades them very quickly. Overall, he is a great professor.
I would recommend to everyone who needs CJBS101 to take his on-line class; no more quizzes tests, much less assignments + two attempts for midterm and final exam; not too any who offers that. Will take him again with CJBS300415
Easy class would take again in a heartbeat. Tells interesting stories . Do your discussions and you'll be fine. Midterms were online which was cool.
I never participated in class, gave a presentation, completed all open discussions on blackboard, got 100 on midterm and final ( 2 attempts online), and got myself an A. (????) Wow BTW, when there's open discussion on blackboard, midterm, or final online, there's no class.
My favorite professor in John Jay by far. You always know what he expects of you and it's not much. A couple discussions on blackboard, a midterm, final, & a simple group presentation. You also have 2 tries on the exams (which are online) so it's your fault if you fail. The class was interesting, he works with you, & is very helpful.
Just do the discussion. Make sure do well in the midterm and final. Super easy.
Took this class for a quick five week summer session. 40% for four discussion boards and 60% final paper. Clear grading criteria and assignments. As long as you do everything the way the wants it and show him that you're putting in the work and participating, this class will go smoothly.
He'll help you if you ask for help but can be a bit confusing in his instructions. Overall, a very effective professor with clear grading criteria. 4 Discussion boards60% Final Paper40%
Took Prof. Cheloukhine this summer. You have to buy the book, read the book and answer each question with paragraphs using evidence from the textbook. No quizzes, no test, a lot of reading and typing, one 8 page research paper. The paper was 60% of the grade. It was an easy course with a lot to learn. Interesting class and great professor!
Great teacher to take if you want a easy A, he gives a take home midterm and final, a paper, and a presentation. Homework is just about 5 class discussions and you get like 2 weeks to do them. Great man and really wants everyone to pass.
Simply amazing! A lot of reading/writing, but class worth it, you will learn a lot of interesting things easily. Professor has clear grading criteria, always open for conversation and help. I enjoyed this class, will take him again!
I just took his online class & it was so easy!! Put in the work and you will get a good grade! He wants to see you get an A in his class! He is worth taking!
This man is the truth! I took him for cjbs 300 & 415 and I don't regret it at all! It's a senior class so you have to read a lot but believe me, you will learn. His email response are quick & he is readily available to talk when you need him. Awesome Professor!
One of the best professors at John Jay. He is very fun in person and great on online classes too. He responds really quick to emails and you learn so much from him. He is a great professor and everyone should try his classes.
Easy class. 7 discussion post, no midterm, and there's a final which is based off all chapters. For the discussion post all you have to do is choose 3 questions to answer for each of the 7 discussion thread. Be sure to buy the textbook for you will need it to do the homework and final exam.
He is a good professor. Straight to the point
One of the best professors in John jay, do the work and you'll be fine.
Must read the book assigned in order to pass! You have to post 3 bb threads every week consisting of 7-10 lines each. BB threads are based on readings. You have a research paper on whichever CRJ topic you wish. You can run by him the topic you would like. Make sure you do all your assignments as there are no extensions or excuses. Easy A for sure!
Online class? Make sure you check BB twice a week, otherwise he considers you absent and will ask registrar dept. to drop you from class. Very straightforward. He won't answer questions addressed on syllabus or announcements. 3 posts per week based on readings. Fantastic book. Easy to understand. 10pgs paper on any CJBS topic. That's all.
Just take him. You wont regret it. Do your work thats all.
Easy online class. Highly recommended
Very straight forward professor. Be on top of your reading assignments, do your blackboard discussion board on time (7-10 lines) write a 10 page paper (APA style) on any CRJ related topic and youll pass with flying colors.
Professor Cheloukhine is an awesome professor if you plan to take him online. At first it may seem like a lot of work but it becomes so repetitive that it becomes easy to do. NO MIDTERM, NO FINAL, just a 10 page paper on any topic related to CJ. Make sure you do (7-10) lines for each post; meaning 7-10 sentences. BOOK IS REQUIRED! EASY A!
Great Professor, I took him for my capstone senior class. If you do your work, ON TIME, you'll pass! He makes it hard for students to fail his class. Six discussion board, and a final ALL SEMESTER. If you can, definitely take his class.
Fair grader, expectations laid out in syllabus. Weekly discussion posts and a 10 page final paper. Read, get everything in on time, be thorough, and you'll do well. Highly recommended.
Great Professor! At first, he sounds like a mean and tough professor but he is far from it!! Just follow directions- Discussion boards consisting 7-10 lines for each post. The final is a 10 page paper ( APA STYLE IS A MUST!) This is your last class before graduation, so he expects EXCELLENT work from you. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! EASY A
Professor Cheloukhine is great! This was my 1st online course, and he made it smoother by responding to his emails right away. I was scared about the final research paper being 60% of my grade, but I put in hard work and got good results. The discussion boards were interesting, and make sure you learn as much as you can in the prereq CJBS 250 ;-)
Easy online class it was clear and easy-going! Take him good GPA booster! A little reading but nothing serious.
Took professor Che for winter online. This was an easy class if you put in the work, you are required to do the readings.4 D.B in detail about the reading 7 to 10 lines long. 10 page paper easy A he responds to your emails quickly but does not have time for nonsense. Read throughly before you ask questions. Everything is clearly stated in syllabus.
BEST PROFESSOR ever !! @ JJC! Guarantee !!! Once you take one class, will continuing taking more....
This was class was super easy, buy the textbook use it to do the discussion boards write a 10pg paper and you will get a good grade! Would take him again if I had the chance ! Definitely take him for 415 I promise you, you'll pass if you do the work! This was my first online class and it was a great experience!!
I took this class in the Winter session. A semesters worth of work crammed into 3 1/2 weeks. Intimidating but it was well worth it.. There are 4 homework posts that are required, each week involves reading 3 chapters and writing 2 posts per chapter. And the final involves a 10 page paper. It got a little stressful but it was an easy A!
Her classwork isn't hard, its a good class. this is your ideal online class, she only gives 6 discussions and 1 final paper. no exams. She seems rude over email when you ask questions but overall the class is very straight forward so I doubt you'll be asking much, just read the syllabus carefully. Also interesting discussions!
Doesn't give good feedback. Feels like you're pestering the professor if you send an email to clear instructions up. I know I submitted a great paper and still gave be a wack grade overall. super harsh grading.. plus the paper wasn't grade on time. she just ended the class and didn't give feedback at least. This is a GPA gamble of a class.
Easy class, easy grade. Highly recommend him.
Pretty simple course. Everything is laid out in the syllabus just follow instructions throughly. As long as you do the work, you will get an A. You are graded by a few things though, 8 page paper and discussion boards only, no extra credit is offered. No final or midterm.
This is my second A with this amazing professor! Make sure you do all your required posts and final paper on time. You do not have to invite anything new - just read chapters and summarize them. Easy grader!
Such an amazing and kindhearted professor. 4 discussion boards, 1 paper on any CJS topic 10 pages plus 3 scholarly sources. APÁ is a must for paper and discussion boards. DB questions found in book and must cite and directly answer the question.
5 DB,one 25 MCQ quiz and a 70 MCQ final. He posts all the work in advance which is really great, must use the book to answer the questions of the discussion boards and use APA citation and reply to one classmate. Very sweet professor and understanding. Highly recommend!!
3rd A with this extremely amazing professor. 4 discussion boards you get to choose what topics you would like to write about from the book for the DBQ and one 12 page research paper on a CJ theory or policy. APA citation is a must for both DBQ and research paper + must also reply to 2 classmates and make separate posts for DBQs

Easy A. We had 6 discussions for the entire semester (all 14 chapters split in the 6 discussions), and a final 8 page paper. You have enough time to read the chapters and respond to someone else post before the due date. Don't hesitate to take him.
This is my second class with him. He is a good professor and very fair. You have a lot of time to do each DB. He gave a lot of freedom for DB to write a summary/reaction without strict guidelines. One post and two responses, so not hard at all. Grading is fast and fair. One term paper of at least 10 pages. Would definitely recommend his classes.
Easy A! 6 discussion posts in the entire semester. Gives you about 2/3 weeks to do one discussion board so deadlines aren't harsh. One final eight page paper. No stress at all. He responds to emails quickly!
Best professor, discussion boards are straight forward, do not leave anything for last minute it will be overwhelming other than that 10/10 recommend.
Easy class. Took his five-session summer course. Just take the class you will not regret it. He's looking out for you.
Wants you to pass, straightforward. I took 5 week summer course. Just take this class, and you will pass.
This professor is fair and clear. If you need the book I'm selling it contact me at ((929) 390-3820)
So easy! Took the capstone over the summer and got a 100 on all 6 discussion boards and 100 on the final paper. Final paper is 10 pages(not including cover page & bibliography). If you start it early, it's so much easier. He loves when you turn in discussion boards or the paper in early. He responds to emails very quickly! Amazing professor!!
Professor Serguei is a ok professor. His class is not hard since you just gotta complete 6 discussion boards and final paper.
I've taken this professor twice already, and always amazing. Straight to the point and very clear. Just wants to see that you've done the work. TAKE THIS PROFESSOR you wont regret it. It was only 6 prompts throughout the whole semester and one paper.
Senior Year and this professor were precisely what I needed for my stressful semester. thank you, Professor. Super clear and straight to the point.
Pretty easy class just need the textbook for the class discussion board and you will pass the class. A few readings to have a good understanding of the assignment. Would take his class again
I'm currently in week three of his five-week summer class & things are going smoother than I anticipated. Having his textbook is a MUST being that his discussion boards are based on chapter readings. His grading criteria is very straight forward and as long as you stay on top of your deadlines & beginning your final paper, you are guaranteed an A.
Class was very straightforward and you knew what needed to be done by reading his syllabus. A paper of 10 pages and monthly or weekly discussion board posts. Each post did have a line requirement, but was very easy because you can summarize the chapter and get credit. He was also very helpful when you reached out for questions. 10/10 elective
Great professor. Instructions were little confusing in the beginning but as long as discussion board was submitted with proper citation, grades were fair. Once you know what professor wants it makes it easy. He grades fairly. He replies to questions quickly via email.
Very very very amazing professor. This course has 6 discussion board post and one final research paper which is very easy. IF you have the chance to take him please do so!
The professor's approach to answering questions can be a bit abrasive, often implying my intentions or misunderstanding my inquiries. It's made seeking clarification a bit intimidating, affecting my comfort level in class discussions.
He was easy to contact through email, his feedback was provided in a timely manner, allowing for quick adjustments and improvements. The summer course structure consisted of 4 discussion assignments and an 8-page paper. The straightforward approach in the syllabus was very clear. I will be definitely taking him again for CJBS 415.
Professor has a clear grading system. Stay on top of the discussion boards and final paper - easy A. unstuck ai a great study tool alongside the textbook.
My experience with Professor Cheloukhine was disappointing. Though knowledgeable, he was consistently rude and dismissive in email communication. He discouraged questions and made it difficult to engage or seek help, creating an unwelcoming and unproductive academic environment.
Professor Cheloukhine was extremely rude and unfair. I am a senior with a 4.0 GPA but his class was the only one I got a C- in. After a genuine interaction where I asked a class related question, his attitude toward me noticeably changed. Another professor said my paper was A- quality but he gave A's to others who didn't even meet the requirements.
Professor was very easy going. Class consisted of 6 DB post and a 10-page paper. If you're not self-directed don't take the class. If you do the assignments to his requirements, you shouldn't have a problem passing the class. This class is asynchronous and he's not going to hold your hand. Email responses were timely, and he returns grades quickly
Professor Cheloukhine's asynchronous course offers flexibility, but grading can feel inconsistent and unclear. Despite putting in effort, feedback is minimal and grades don't always reflect the work submitted. The material is interesting, but the experience may vary from student to student.
Professor Cheloukhine's class lacks structure and clear expectations. The asynchronous format could be convenient, but communication is poor and grading feels unpredictable. It's hard to know where you stand, and effort doesn't always seem to count for much. Would not recommend unless absolutely necessary.
If you're looking for fairness and clarity, this class might not meet your expectations.
Professor Cheloukhine's class is fairly easy and based mostly on the discussion board. However, grading feels inconsistent. I've had similar answers to other students but received lower grades. My final grade doesn't reflect the effort or quality of my work, which is frustrating in such a straightforward course.
This professor is quick to respond to emails, which is appreciated, but his tone can sometimes feel a bit blunt or harsh. The class itself is manageable, there are 6 discussion boards and a 10-page final paper. Overall, it's not too heavy, but clearer, more encouraging communication would make a big difference.
The grading doesn't seem fair. It negatively affected my GPA in my senior year and I'm seeing it also happened to a lot of students who don't deserve it.
I'm glad the semester ended and I don't have to deal with this class anymore. I thought the work was easy and my answers aligned with the questions but the grades from the professor says otherwise. This is really annoying because I worked so hard.
💩 Professor
This professor is very rude through emails, twists up your words, and gaslights. Try to find a different professor for this course if you want a smooth senior year.
I took this class over the summer to get ahead of some of my credits and this class was very easy, and not very stressful. If you are taking the online version of this class just get ready to read a lot. Other than that, professor Cheloukhine was very nice and left thoughtful comments on your work. Would def take again!!
I took this course over the summer but the professor misses your point in emails and responds with hostility. Get ready to read loads if you decide to take courses with this professor.
