Comment:
I dont really know why there are bad reviews of Stephen Wong. He is a very smart, Simple professor. He teaches the big picture of everything you have learnt in the past in a very straight forward way which I much rather than be doing unrealistic scenario question which is not even testing your knowledge at that point Take him, read his notes

Focus your studies on his Lecture notes. They are clear and the examples are quite helpful. His lectures are not needed as he simply goes through his lecture notes in a slightly less clear manner. The textbook is unnecessary as he grades you on the material in his notes. Also he is very rude and insulting if you ask him any question.

Comment:
Worst professor I've had so far, he use his notes and they are full of mistakes; grammar and calculations. It's extremely confusing because you can't refer to the textbook and you can't trust whether it's correct or not. He never completes his sentences, especially for definitions. Very frustrating having him as a professor.

Comment:
I have seen the reviews before taking a class with Mr. Wong, and I still decided to take his class (since I have had "bad" teachers in the past and pass the class easily). However, I would HIGHLY advise you to take another teacher. DON'T TAKE HIM. His notes are full of mistakes, and he doesn't even know how to mark properly. Avoid at all cost

Comment:
He is extremely rude, arrogant and condescending. Do not bother going to see him at his office hours because not only will he not give you tips on how to study properly for his exams but he will try to convince you to drop his course and make sarcastic remarks to bring your confidence down. He enjoys making students' lives miserable like his!!!!!!

Avoid this teacher at ALL COSTS (even if this is your only class left to graduate). Reading his notes and handout problems will have you think that you are fully prepared for his exams but they are simply not sufficient. His exams are in a way that only straight A students and those with a lot of outside class knowledge will somehow manage to pass.

Took for 395 in the summer. Was good because he dropped the last chapter, but still tough grader. Notes are riddled with mistakes and he is hard to reach outside of class. Would not have passed if it weren't for itech. Avoid Wong.

Stephen Wong was by far, the worst teacher I have had at JMSB. Rude, responded to questions by insulting students or telling them what they asked didnt matter. He also uses handwritten notes, scanned by somebody in the class uploaded as pictures, on the class forum. Nightmare of a course. Avoid Avoid Avoid Avoid

Brutal. Brutal brutal brutal. Professor Wong's class is like taking a step back in time. Discourages students from using the textbook (which has up to date and correct methods) and will bog you down with outdated and flawed finance. Mistakes in his notes are too many to count. How is this man even allowed to teach?

Its a shame that teachers with Mr. Wong's reputation are not held accountable for their work. This man's problems/solutions/explanations are are full of mistakes and yet students are dismissed for pointing them out. Studying for his exams is like a guessing game, and you'll never guess right because material is not restricted to topics covered.

Comment:
Oh man this guy. Usually a teacher is either 1) very knowledgeable or 2) will at least be kind, approachable and try to help. This man is neither. Will answer student questions with statements like "you should know this by now" and fail to provide an actual response - because he doesn't know. You're wasting your time taking for this class.

You'll leave his exams feeling like you've studied for the wrong test. Questions seem to be pulled out of nowhere. You could be able to do all of the course problems, textbook problems, and handout problems inside-out - you still wont do well. Doesn't matter if you study 2 hours or 200, you're walking out with whatever Wong decides.

It's a bad course made worse by an even worse teacher. Very rude to his students and gets completely flustered if a question isn't directly from his notes. Speaking of his notes, they are riddled with mistakes that he's too careless to fix. Knowledge and methods are outdated...

Comment:
Concordia should be embarrassed to still employ this individual. Complete disregard for students questions, regardless of how insightful. Will assign arbitrary grades with absolutely no criteria or commentary. Will not offer explanations, will not revise. Level of effort is not rewarded, cannot prepare for exams. Learning is basically discouraged.

Absolutely horrible. You'll be spending more time trying to figure out what's wrong with the notes than actually learning something. Forget about asking questions as if it derails a bit from his notes, he won't be able to answer. After 35 years of teaching, you would think that he would have learned a better way of teaching.
