Comment:
This man, and understand I'm taking this class online during the pandemic so this might not be applicable if this lockdown gets resolved, but he is the singular worst teacher I've had in college. He simply is lazy and does not care one bit, he's recorded lectures are unacceptably horrid. Poor resolution and poorer audio quality. NEVER RESPONDS.

This quizzes this man gives are more about semantics than economics. They would be easy except he has to make the wording as complicated as possible for simple questions. His lectures are fine, nothing extraordinary.

Great prof, obviously very knowledgeable and wants to see students succeed. Teaches at a moderate-slow pace and will often review what you went over the week before. Ensures you're learning the "why" instead of just throwing equations at you. This material can be challenging but is IMPORTANT which is why it's helpful to have him as a professor.

Horrible Class. Exam average under 70% for all exams. All notes are handwritten during class, and his handwriting is illegible most of the time. Good luck if you miss a class, better have a friend who was there. Overcomplicates everything and asks VERY abstract conceptual questions for exams/online quizzes. Also no practice for quanitative problems

He's the chair of the department , and the person is so nice. His office hour is really really ... helpful, and he could explain very well when you ask him question. There are study questions before exams, and he allowed that use the final exam grade to replace one exam if you did not did well in first or second exam, and he gives review session.

Mr. Davis is a really fair and enjoyable teacher. He is thankfully not the typical "watch a slide-show full of notes and copy it down" teacher. He gives real life examples and has a good personality about it. His tests are fair and if you spend a couple good nights studying you will be fine. Also he is a very easy grader. Enjoyed this class

Took his class over winter term. Fast paced, and not necessarily easy, but I found that if you do the readings and practice exams everything becomes more clear. George is a genuine guy and willing to clarify if you need more help understanding something.

Mr. Davis is one of the best professor's I've had throughout Miami. He's hard, but so helpful. I went to his office hours once a week, asked questions, and got good answers. I'm not good at Econ and I knew I wouldn't get an A from the start, but I know by going to his office hours it helped me from getting a D in that class.

Definitely a good professor. Gives a "degree of difficulty" adjustment on all exams (aka a huge curve, 15 points for the final) and gives practice exam questions before every test. Nice guy and willing to help. Aplia will boost your grade if you do it. Recommend!

Genuinely good dude. He is the department head. Can be a bit bland at times, which causes me to lose interest. His sense of humor will grow on you. Tests are tough, but manageable.

I did not enjoy this class. Lectures seem easy and boring, but then the tests are difficult, and he is a really picky grader.

He's the chair of the department and is like just about every other econ teacher at Miami because he likes to complicate easy concepts and have his TA's take off many points for small mistakes on his difficult tests. I probably could have done better if I worked a little harder, though, and he's a nice guy, so he might be your best option for 301.

Excellent teacher, I wish they all could be like this guy. Tests are difficult, and the essays require a lot of thinking. If you put in a lot of work you'll get a lot out of this class as well as a thorough understanding of money and banking.

Exams are straight from his notes, and none of his elaborate formulas are on there. As long as you listen in class, the exams aren't bad. His practice exams and review problems are almost verbatim on the tests. Just listen, take notes, and do the old/practice exams. Good teacher.

Very clear, great professor, you can really learn a lot from his class. Sometimes gets carried away with derivations of formulas, but don't worry, they won't be on the test.
