Reviews of professor Kalin Kolev

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Professor Kolev is one of the most talented lecturers I've ever had the pleasure of learning under. I mean, wow, this man is a remarkable orator and conveyor of information. I'm not pursuing a career in accounting but I can only imagine the mark Prof. Kolev left on the accounting profession because of how effective he is at teaching. Will miss him!

Your participation matters in this class. It is worth 10% and attendance is not included in it. You really have to talk in almost every class to get full points. The average on the first exam was a 38% , the second exam was way easier and better. One group project which is a PowerPoint presentation and one final paper. Only two exams. Read the text

This course is very difficult, the professor's accent is not quite understandable ... but if you are good at self-study like me, it is no problem at all, the PPT is very good to understand, and you can bring a reference sheet as big as A4 paper, you can copy the notes all up.

Amazing professor, had to adapt to fully online cause of covid. But did a good job with lectures and staying ontop of posting the empty slides to fill in during lecture. posted recordings after every class incase you missed. this is a hard class, but he made things clear and concise and was open to questions during class. 50% final, 40 midterm,10hw

Good all around professor. This is a hard class, don't expect him to spoon-feed you all the information. However, I can say his lectures are very informative and he is very clear and knowledgeable on the topic. Tests are 90%, so study!! Download his lecture videos since he deletes after 1-2 weeks on BB. STUDY HARD!!! Very responsive professor.

Professor Kolev is knowledgeable and willing to help. Grades and expectations are clearly stated in course syllabus. I wish Baruch allowed a different accounting textbook to supplement Kolev's lectures, something beyond the professor's control. Overall fair course with a fair instructor

Professor Kolev is an incredibly knowledgeable and caring professor. His lectures are very thorough and he ensures everyone is comfortable with the topics. Don't be afraid to ask questions. The class is not easy but it really comes down to the subject itself. Do the homeworks, look over his slides habitually and you can't go wrong taking him.

I barely went to any of the online lectures tbh. He's good at explaining things, and he always answered emails on time. He still uses testbanks btw, he just changes up things
