I took this Professor in another class, namely, "Real Estate Transaction". He is very thorough, easy to work with and he cares about the wellbeing of his students. He is also very fair. I would definitely recommend taking his class.
This professor is awesome! He helped me alot with my business and has been active in giving me tips for the company. I am done with the class and still actively converse with Patch and have been helped by him still on multiple occasions. I definitely recommend this professor over others hands down.
Great professor! Uses a lot of power points but explains himself very well. Funny and interesting guy. I would recommend him to anyone. 2 tests, both open book/open note. Extremely easy A.
Great teachers you can tell he really cares about his students. Makes it fun and interesting. Take him!
AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME teacher!!! Super helpful and willing to work with his students. lenient when it comes to tardiness. Course Material isn't hard, He explains everything well and makes it relatable. Class participation is preferred. test are open book, open notes. Encourages you to read chapters for class discussion. Will take his class AGN
Dr. Patch is amazing! He teaches off class interaction, short PowerPoints, and barely uses the book. His class is an easy A, but you actually learn. There is one project at the end of the semester that is super easy, too. He's an awesome guy. I'm definitely taking his Entrepreneur class next semester. He's so fun!
All his test are open book, open notes, you can use your computer, iPad or cell phone to answer your test. Very knowledgeable. Class is easy but if you really want to learn you will have to read. Easy A . Very helpful , gives extra credit, he will help you in any way to pass the class with an A. I took 3 classes with him, will take him again.
Dr. Patch is by far my most favorite teacher at PBSC. He connects with students and is very passionate about his job. Dr. patch is hilarious and gives the opportunity to earn extra credit on the midterm and final. The only way to fail ENT1000 is to not do your work.
I took him for realestatetrans- amazing , great teacher funny and will tell everyone you can get an A . he isn't strict on grades because he wants you to learn the material, rather than be stressed about your grade, after all your taking this knowledge with you. You have one team project but honestly the work is not hard just listen to him
Professor Patch is AWESOME! He is really good at teaching and is always so helpful and cares about you getting what he is teaching. I have taken three classes with him and I will be taking more! He is amazing and you will love him! Easy A!!!
Do what is asked, easy A
Prof. Patch is a great professor, I will be taking more of his courses next semester, he is really into his work, and lectures good, makes you read the textbook but it's worth taking his classes, do your homework and pay attention in class and come to class and you will pass this course
This course is fantastic. This course teaches you practical aspects to take into the business world. There is a profound balance taking this class with the ability to take what you learn into the field. I was able to balance my career work and my homework with no issues. Dr. Patch is extremely knowledgeable and will guide you in business.
He gives great lectures and is available outside of class. He is always willing to help and knows how to teach.
One of my favorite professors I have ever had and gives his own personal view on certain situations, which really helps when applying information to real life.
Puts everything into perspective, which is essential for me in understanding topics. Recognizes student independence and is a very respected person. His background was the seller for me as he has many credentials.
Professor Patch gives really great lectures, and he really explains the difficult topics in a simple way. If you're interested in entrepreneurship at all, i highly suggest taking this guy!
Best professor ever! Very easy A, show up to class and read the chapters and listen carefully to lectures and you will pass!
I loved Patch!!!!! His lessons are clearly focused and assignments were easy enough to do on your own. He offers extra credit and re-writes for assignments, so it's easy to boost your grade. Patch is hilarious and his lessons are interesting. This is the one class I don't sleep in.
Dr. Patch is awesome. He's very understanding and respectful as long as you actually try. He wants everyone to pass but only if you show up and act like you care. I've taken away A LOT of great information from his intro to business class though business is not my major. I plan on taking more business classes thanks to him!
I wish every professor were like Patch! He's so understanding and inspiring. He genuinely just wants his students to succeed, and does everything he can to help get them there. Show up, participate in (fun) class discussions, and you'll pass. Common knowledge curriculum makes graded work easy, and his personable lectures make class fun.
Great class. At first I didn't see how the class correlates to my career, but eventually it and the professor won me over. I learned and took away a lot from that class that I can implement everyday.
Patch is by far the best professor for Entrepreneurship and for Business. Need advice or guidance for your business life? This is definitely the class for you!
Great class that has helped me understand the basics of entrepreneurship.
#Team3ish TP
Great Professor I recommend it to anyone that loves Business.
He is great professor.
Free form class. He makes classes fun, exciting and interactive. Dr. Patch is willing to answer your questions, and talk about what's important to the students, and encourages group discussion. Really cares about his students, and wants them to succeed not only in class, but take something from class that can be applied to real life success.
Textbook usage is optional, relies on powerpoint slides. Class uses microbusiness simulator for real world running and managing a small business. Open participation and ideas are recommended and encouraged. Use of simulator is in groups of 2-3 people, future classes will be able to use the small business simulator as well, was not adapted yet.
Fantastic professor, a man who does more than just go by the textbook, gives real life advice that you will truly take with you for the rest of your life
Dr. Patch is one of the best professors I have ever taken. He truly cares about his students and will take the time to answer questions and help you as much as possible. He's the real MVP of professors at palm beach state.
Patch is freaking awesome!! if looking for inspiration on being successful or pursuing an entrepreneurial-type venture, look no further as Prof. Patch will encourage you and blow your mind about the possibilities at the same time.
Great professor, really looks out for you to get an A. Great teaching style as well, keeps the class up n going!
great professor do the work get an A!
he always spoke like an entrepreneur. always gave good lectures on starting and developing your business, one of the few college classes i actually enjoyed, and certainly one ill use in real life.
Professor Patch is extremely knowledgeable about what he teach, he's truly passionate about teaching and it shows. He provides every opportunity to succeed in his class as long as you show commitment, show up to class, do the work and participate.
Always spoke entrepreneurly. Always gave good examples
Patch is really a great professor. He's one of the few out there who truly cares about what you think/feel about the class and takes everything you have to criticize or compliment to heart. He definitely is working for his students and makes sure their voices are heard. He also is pretty funny and makes coming to class fun and interesting.
Very great professor, really cares about students and making sure they succeed in class.
I was going through so hard times at home and he helped me with completing all assignments. Great Great Great Professor!!!!!
A professor that actually wants his students to succeed! If you're engaged in class discussions, you will pass his classes. He's understanding, entertaining, intellectual, and you will be friends by the end of the semester.
Really cares about his students and their success in his class. Everything is pretty clear as far as what he expects and offers several opportunities to earn extra credit. Will be taking as many of Dr. Patch's classes that I can while attending PBSC.
Professor Patch is a very good instructor, and I really recommend for you to take his class because you will get an easy A.
All around pretty good class, would take it again.
I would take all of his courses.
I took him for a management course, and the amount of knowledge he knows is incredible. He will give real life applications, and what I liked the most was that when you talked to him about a class situation, he listened. His feedback went above and beyond, and it always related to the course. So basically you were being supplemented at all times!
Would love to take more class with Patch. Do what he asks and your going to pass with an A
Dr. Patch is a wonderful professor who really cares about his students. He brings real life experience to the classroom and looks for contribution from students. He is fair, organized and willing to help you with your business plans for the future. Highly recommend him he is an absolute pleasure.
I would say Prof. Patch is a game changer. Rather than teaching what we should know, he teaches what we need to know. He loves participation and encourages it a lot, and do it, otherwise its "death by PowerPoint" (his words (probably out of context)). Just because he is easy doesn't mean you don't learn anything, he's one of the few gem teachers.
Patch truly is a great guy. He sincerely cares about his students & wants us all to pass with an A. Getting an A is easy, you just have to do all the work & participate. He deeply looks out for our best interest, not just in the class, but also for the future/real life. Only criticism would be he relies too much on ppt slides, & less on interaction
Follows day one plans, flexible, just communicate with this professor, uses power points and blackboard, great feedback, you always know your grade, makes class time fun and relaxed.
Patch is a professor who is adaptive. Many times his lectures take on s life of their own because the discussion follows class momentum. Tests are open book and all assignments are posted ahead of time. There's no way to fail if u post the slightest attention.
Dr. Patch is the best professor I ever had at Palm Beach State College. Dr. Patch truly cares about his student's success always asking for constant feedback on how his courses can improve. Every student at PBSC should be grateful to have such an amazing professor I wish I can take him for every class. Highly recommend you sign up for his classes.
Dr. Patch is an outstanding professor that I guarantee you will love. be careful no to procrastinate on his homework. be sure to ask questions for clarity because he is there to help you be the best you.
Professor Patch is an amazing instructor. He gives you everything needed for the exams. There is one group project and two exams. He will help you out with anything you need and is very easy to reach. I would take him again if I had the chance.
Dr. Patch is by far one of the best professors on Gardens campus. He is actually willing to help you with any question and helps way more then any of the advisors! I would definatly recommend any of his classes to you! His test are multiple choice with 2 short answers. Only 2 tests, 1 in class open note! And the final is a take home!
It was a very fun class and he made it better by making sure to get feedback from us on things that he could do better or subjects that we wanted him to cover in more depth. Everything about the class was fairly straightforward and easy to understand, and he was available outside of class if we had any difficulties.
Great professor, would take again for any other class. Very down to earth.
Prof Patch loves to talk and spends most of the class time reading power points. Although it good to pay attention to learn, one doesn't need to to pass the class (midterm was open notes, you can print his power points, don't buy the textbook...I never opened it). Gave us a group project and whenever we turned homework in he'd always give feedback.
Dr. Patch is a great teacher! He really wants you to do well so he makes sure you have all the opportunities you need to pass his class. Tests are open book and there are only 2. You have 1 paper due and 1 group project. Just turn your work in on time and you will be fine.
I just want to say for all classes, regardless of the professor, its impossible for a 1.0 difficulty level "Show up and Pass." You can't pass any class without doing HW, project, etc. Dr. Patch is awesome. Really cares about students and goes above and beyond the call of duty. Easy A if you do the assignments, and participates (show up) to class.
Patch was a great professor who really cares about his students and their grades. He has really good lectures that keep you focused and engaged the whole time. Not much homework, just group projects and tests are open book. Show up and you will pass. Would take him again
Great professor. Really cares about his students and enjoys his job. Wants you to succeed
He is an excellent professor who gives a lot of feedback to his students. You can contact him at any time and is willing to help you reach the A. Very knowledgeable with the subject also.
Really cares for his students. He does all he can to make sure you understand the material & pass the class.
Overall great professor. Would definitely recommend if you have any interest in the startup of businesses
Professor Patch is great . I love the fact that if you talk to him about business ideas or questions he goes the extra mile to help, just be sure to ask. Patch definitely knows the tools needed to become a successful entrepreneur, and wants to see everyone succeed. Lectures may be dry but the basic fundamentals of entrepreneurship are taught well.
Great proffessor best I had in my 2 years wish i found out about him earlier
Great professor and knowledgeable, if you do the work that asked youll pass with an A. participation is encouraged.
Patch is an amazing professor what I have learn in his class was of use in my business life. I recommend Patch for those you really want a professor to teach them. Taking his class for me was worth my time and effort.
Amazing Professor! This class is filled with great discussions and opportunity fro extra credit... if you even need it. He is extremely knowledgeable and easy to talk to. This is one of those classes that you just do what is assigned and your good to go. if you do get a grade you don't like you can always redo it for a better grade.
Best professor I've ever had. Personalizes the class for you to make the most of it. Always available for contact and encourages constant feedback in and out of class. DEFINITELY RECOMMEND!!!!
He is the best teacher at PBSC. Super easy. He is very laid back and his class is so fun. He keeps you laughing. And yes he is hoooot!
Fantastic professor with an unrivaled teaching method. Best professor I've ever had hands down. Would definitely take another course with him.
Dr. Patch is brilliant. He knows so much and is great at teaching us how to think like Entrepreneurs. If you are into business, Patch is the professor for you. You will have work to do and it's not an easy A but he truly sets you up for success. If you do the work and show up, you will get an A.
Dr. Patch is wicked smart ;) He's truly passionate about his work and loves everything Business. If you want to learn, take his class. I specially love the way he sets up his class. Everything is on Blackboard from the beginning so you clearly know what to expect & know how you're doing throughout the class. Show up & do the work, you will get an A
This class is all about Human Relations. So it makes sense that there's 3 team projects. He is clear on his grading criteria and is an excellent professor. I left this class knowing how to work better in team projects and became a much better presenter. Patch is awesome! Best professor I've had. I hope to take his classes again.
great teacher! he keeps the class interesting and takes pride in his teaching academics.
so far, he is one of the easiest professors I ever had.
Good teacher
He's a solid professor, likes to talk a lot in class. Sometimes can get off topic. Make sure to do the online homework. Be ready for a group project and do well on it.
He really cares about the students and wants everyone to pass.
Prof. Patch is warm and engaging--while still challenging his students to go beyond their beginning ideas to develop them in new and exciting ways. There are online items that are easy to overlook. He reminds everyone--you just need to pay attention. Hate the class content--love the way he teaches.
Very good professor. would take again
Great personality, very well prepared lesson plans, open book tests, take home final, excellent feedback, and fun classroom
Great professor. Gives solid feedback and really cares about the students. Professor Patch has a wealth of knowledge and experience that will help anyone looking for a career in business.
Patch is a wonderful Professor. He is extremely passionate about entrepreneurship and really strives for his students to have open mindedness when going in the business industry. Would recommend for sure! One of my favorite classes I have taken so far at Palm Beach State College, and I'm almost done with my AA so that tells a lot.
Amazing! easiest professor, very understanding and caring. The assignments are very helpful and you actually learn about life and business. very knowledgeable, can go off topic but whatever. Take if you want an easy A and if you want to actually learn about business. One group project, learn smart and two write-ups. Also funny and friendly!
Dr. Patch gives great lectures and feedbacks. Plus he does not grade heavy. If you show up, you pass
Dr. Patch is one of Palm Beach State's best business professors. He will give you adequate information about business, advice, and real world experience. This course is group heavy but is essential for the business professional. Patch gives amazing feedback to help motivate you and grow you into a true powerhouse within the business community.
Dr. Patch is an amazing professor whose assignments bring the business world to life. The workload is reasonable and mostly involves applying business concepts and working as a team. This class was very engaging and a great experience. Dr. Patch was a fantastic professor that made it a lot of fun.
Dr. Patch is very supportive and cares for his students. He is very knowledgeable and passionate about his field. There is a simulation where you run a mobile cart in a city and make business decisions. Dr. Patch is the best professor I had at Palm Beach State College and I plan on taking him for as many classes as possible.
Dr. Patch was one of the best business professors I've ever taken. I took him for Planning the Entrepreneurial Venture and it was very applicable towards the field of doing business. Highly recommend him if you're a businessperson/entrepreneur thinking about starting a business venture!
Dr. Patch is a phenomenal professor who motivates his students to pursue their passions. He gives his students valuable insight into the best ways to pursue them. A majority of the workload consists of projects that delve into the business field. Dr. Patch made this an enjoyable and extraordinary class.
Clear grading criteria Study cases Write-up class discussion project presentation online quizzes
GREAT TEACHER, caring,hilarious, lots of group projects,extra credit, flexible, hope to get him next semester. Just do the work, do your best, if he sees that you try, you will get a good grade. In Essays he wants to see good grammar and good comprehension of the subject you are writing in.
Dr. Patch is truly an amazing teacher. He cares about your grade and your future. Come in to the class and do the work and you'll get an A.
Dr. Patch is a great professor, he will help you if you truly care and show effort you'll earn an A. Class is simple as long as you do the work.
Fantastic Professor! I'm glad that I got the chance to have him as my professor. His method of teaching is interactive, straight forward, and effective. I hope that he gets the opportunity to teach more legal classes, as I would take him again in heartbeat! He's a really nice guy, gives informative lectures, and truly wants his students to excel!
I love this professor ! He is very smart, and super helpful. You do the Connect reading so you have to buy the Wileyplus code, but I enjoyed it. I feel like it helped me actually learn something. He enjoys interacting with his students, and is willing to work with you. Will DEFINITELY take him again if I am given the opportunity
Opens everything so you can finish early (I was done in 2 months). You read 3 chapters, do the learnsmart, do a discussion board, and do an exam every 2 weeks. It sounds like a lot but if you commit you can push through (a lot of it is common sense and terms). Mine may have been accelerated pacing too because I think it was a shorter week course.
I took him online but I can tell what type of person he is. Definitely cares about his students! He gives amazing feedback on discussion boards & essays. He will extend due dates if he sees youre making an effort. Only thing i didnt like is the homeworks, there are 20 chapters/learnsmarts. They range from 80-140 questions 2-3 a week
Legit the best professor I've taken! I think a lot of people would agree. His lectures are never boring because he teaches more by using examples & situations than textbook info. He's a super chill yet knowledgable guy & the workload for the class isn't bad at all. He's an easy grader and very inspiring. Overall, easy A and a fun time
First off, Prof Paczkowski is TRANSFERRING to FAU. I took his ENT1000 course this past Spring semester, and as a first-time dual enrollment student, this was great. He is very flexible and appreciates students that show effort. He gave really good feedback to our final group project.
Prof Patch is very inspirational and loves to teach students about management. The lectures can drag on, however normally it's because he goes on and on about something different. I've learned way more from him than the PowerPoints. He loves to talk and get the class involved in the conversation. He assigns a fair amount of homework which is easy.
