He will give you life lessons every class that become very repetitive. He will not be straight forward with you about your grades. He also makes the grading extremely difficult to understand. I will never understand how I get my grade in here.

Mendola is a great professor! He's well organized, answers questions, and is helpful! The golden rule for Mendola's class is that you follow his rules. These consist of never being late, no cell phones, and common sense. Sleeping probably isn't a good idea either. I highly recommend that you take his class if you want a solid basis in accounting!

Comment:

I've had Professor Mendola for many of my accounting courses and It seems like he is getting close to retirement age or is at least considering it. We never got a syllabus and he took away one of our tests, that was a take-home test because everyone passed. We need a professor that is clear and can teach us material so we can be successful.

He is literally the worst teacher i've ever had. All he talks about is what we should be doing, but doesn't actually teach you anything. How about you teach instead of giving me a life lecture.

This was the hardest class I've ever taken, and not simply because of the material, but the lack of teaching Mr Mendola does. Avoid if at all possible.

Horrible. Makes you buy a $130 website where he assigns you problems. Class might as well be online because that's how I learned. He preaches to everyone about the type of student you should be rather than actually teach. Most days he goes over homework that you have no clue about. Would ever recommend to anyone.

Honestly this is the worst teacher I've ever had in my life. His teaching style is horrible and the way he makes up his test are the worst. I'm an Acc Major and have had Roberts and Jones. I pass Roberts and Jones with A's but Mendola I'll be lucky if I get an C. Avoid at all cost.

I had mendola for tax 1 and accounting 2. He is very difficult to follow in tax 1 as he jumps all over the place. Accounting 2 was a fairly easy class so he did not have to do a whole lot of instructing. Very nice man, will help you if you want to be helped, I thought he was a funny guy just a bit scatterbrained

His class is very well managed. He explains thing very well, answers questions easily. He really knows what he is talking about. He may show up to class a few minutes late but as long as you do the work and pay attention the class is very excellent and informative! If you are willing to do the work.. great professor =)

Not sure about his in-person classes, but he refuses to teach his online one. He's very rude to students asking for help, rarely answers questions and doesn't actually teach the class. The material is very difficult, and he rarely seems to understand it himself (or at least, what the students are asking). Thumbs down, avoid at all costs.

Not sure how he is in-person, but online he does not teach. He uses a third party program to "teach" for him, and it makes you teach yourself. It's fine if you're already familiar with the material, but otherwise expect a struggle. Seems to contradict himself often, and hasn't seemed helpful to any discussion board concerns by students.

I do not care what anyone says about him, the man can teach. Just put the phone away and do not sleep for 45 minutes and he's cool. If you'r late for class take a minute after class to explain why and he's ok. Don't think anyone could have taught the material much better. Strongly him recommend to serious students.

His class was EXTREMELY hard at the beginning of the year. If you don't show up for class you'll be lost and if you show up late he'll flip out!

Comment:

At the beginning of the semester he can be a hard teacher if you don't follow his three rules. If you are gonna be late you probably just shouldn't go to class and never have your cell phone out on the table. He becomes nicer as the year goes on and overall is pretty cool as long as you do what he asks.

Professor Mendola is confused about what he is trying to tell you. Constantly talks about his accounting business but I'm not sure he even knows anything about accounting. Not bad to take if you already had accounting (like i did for 3 years)

Had this as an online class. He assumes that we are all cheating in online class. He has an accounting firm in another town, I've seen the sign with his name. I feel he isn't making his teaching job a priority.

This guy is the worst professor I've ever had. I can't imagine how anyone could think this guy is "pretty cool." He's the antithesis of cool. Dont take him!!!

Wow, these comments are very hard to believe. I think he is really cool. There are 3 rules and they are to show up on time excused absences and no cell phones. Not too hard to follow the rules. Well actually a cell phone went off in class and he laughed about it so he did not get upset. Tests are nice since they are easy. Not bad at all.
