Comment:
Dr.azalov is a great guy and I feel his grading system is fair but his voice is deep and boring and he isn't the best at introducing new material every new section was kind of confusing but after a little I feel everyone was able to grasp it. Overall I would take dr. Azalov again

Pavel is a great teacher if you apply yourself. He is willing to go very far out of his way to help any student that shows interest in learning the material. He's one of the smartest people I've ever met, and he's written me numerous letters of recommendation.

Speaks broken English. Expects you to love c++. Views his students as idiots. Very monotone and looks confused all the time.

I am mid semester in his class right now and a freshmen. I love computers and really want to learn programming but I honestly cannot understand a word this man says. Homework's are easy, test are passible. Basically I am learning out my textbook.

I had him for all the CMPSC classes offered at the Hazleton campus for computer engineering/science majors. He is a very easy teacher. As long as you do good on your homework and projects you'll be fine. Having him Tuesday and Thursday means you will not cover everything and did wish the homework and projects were more challenging. Again EASYYYY!!!

Had him back in 1999 - 2004. He was great. If you are having problems go to him and he will help you and work with you so that you get a passing grade. He knows that not every major needs programming, but they make you take it anyway for some reason. Good Luck!

Dr. Azalov has to be one of the nicest professors out there. He obviously knows his stuff and, as mentioned, he will go out of his way to help anyone. He's very understanding, and he really just wants his students to do the best they can do. Gives out extra credit which is very handy.

I dreaded going to each class because I am horrible with programming. My grades were just decent but I always tried my hardest and I always participated in class. He knew who I was and I was alwayas friendly and talked to him. I somehow got an A. So dont worry about numerical grades. Just give an honest effort and you will get the grade you deserve

Comment:
Pavel Azalov, while hard to understand at times due to English being his second language and his Bulgarian accent, is an excellent professor who actually found a way to provide a challenge to an originally boring course. Homework was kept to a minimum, but required one to apply knowledge more than just repeat it.

Great teacher. Really knows how to use Power Point which helps get past the thick accent he has, which is understandable. Very nice too.

This man is great. I don't care what people say, he is so nice and willing to help you as long as you WANT to learn. Anyone who says he can't teach either doesn't pay attention in class or shouldn't even be in college. Try talking to the man. He will help anyone. He's the smartest and possibly the nicest person on that campus.
