Talaat was the reason I spent a career in Manufacturing Accounting. He was brilliant, funny, and insightful. My favorite Accounting Professor and the guy I modeled my professional life after

I barely passed this class. His classes were boring and tests we're challenging. I would steer clear of this guy unless you are forced to take his class. in that case, get a prescription of adderall because u wont stay awake.

Comment:
i mean it doesn't really get worse than this as far as professors go. he just reads off pre-printed notes and doesn't let you work any problems in class. bad at answering questions and tests are hard. if you are down with completely teaching yourself everything about accting then take him

Its not like the class would be that bad if he wasn't so boring. He lets you print out his notes off line which he basiclly reads from in class. be prepared to teach yourself.

I love Accounting but he has to be the worst teacher at CofC. If you have to take him, don't and take another semester. Its worth it. Tests make no sense and class is so boring you would rather stick yourself in the eye with a pen!

DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS. HE IS VERY BORING AND CONFUSING. TAKE THREE TEST AND HE COUNTS THE TOP 2 TEST, BUT UNFORTUNATELY HIS TEST ARE VERY HARD AND CONFUSING. BASICALLY YOU HAVE TO TEACH YOURSELF THE MATERIAL. I STRONGLY ADVISE YOU TO STAY AWAY FROM THIS MAN IF AT ALL POSSIBLE, UNLESS YOU ARE ON YOUR P'S AND Q'S AND UNDERSTAND YOUR MATERIAL WELL!!!

Comment:
Absolute horrible teacher. Confusing, degrading, cocky, rude, unorganized, boring, only 3 tests, no hw, no quizzes, had to teach myself everything! Honestly, way to old to be teaching. Very old fashioned; don't learn anything. Constantly makes mistakes when trying to explain things. Talks soft and slow...hard to comprehend. DO NOT TAKE HIS CLASS!!!

I think his class was pretty hard but no harder than any other accounting class...just do the homework and listen in class and you should do fine. He is very fair and does not want anyone to fail....I think he is a really nice gug

Mixed feelings. He is not the nicest guy in the world, but he is actually pretty fair. He is not the easiest to understand, but the tests are fairly easy. If you just go to class and take good notes, then you will be fine on the test.

Yes, this prof is a character. He was actually funny to me. He is very nice outside of class and helpful. The tests weren't bad either. Just studies what he teaches and nothing more or you'll get confused. He can be a little cutthroat but I liked that about him. He's no worse than these other professors. I enjoyed his class. Really did.

Comment:
He makes the test impossible to pass, because of crazy multi choice questions. He has a bipolar personality. 1 day he wants to be funny and the next he is ass. I passed and have no clue how. You have to teach yourself everything, the lab sucks so dont waste your time. My advice find another teacher.

In his class, you have to teach yourself EVERYTHING by doing the HW problems...that's the only way I learned anything. Don't expect him to keep his word about makeup assignments, test questions, quizzes, etc. He's liable to change his mind at the last minute for no apparent reason.

Boring, mean, and impossible to get in touch with, won't even respond to emails. Tells you what will be on the written section of the test, but gives insane multiple choice questions. Rude to anyone who asks a question. Do not take him if at all possible.

Handouts were ambiguous because they did not correspond with the assigned book. He was very boring and unhelpful. Take the class if you don't care, but always be prepared for pop quizzes!!!!

Do not expect to be able to ask questions and get a concise explanation. His response is always exactly how he explained the concept originally. His teaching is methodical, NOTHING is conceptual. Very difficult to understand, but nice for a good nap!

Demeaning and RUDE to students who ask questions. Flat out asked me what "my problem was" when I asked a question. Grades very harshly and looks for answers to questions he never asked. Worst professor i have ever had.

Don't Believe some of these whiners, he wasn't that bad at all, you get all the material, all you have to do is sit in class and review his handouts. boring but effective, drops a test, and he was pretty helpful about making up a test that I missed, An average teacher and a decent guy.
