Reviews of professor Gregg Macaluso

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Professor Mac is not a good instructor. He's a really great person that knows his stuff, but the problem is he is clueless in effectively teaching his students. He teaches 80% through examples; there is no conceptual backbone to the course, leading to disorganized and unnecessary lectures. I haven't learned a single useful thing in this class.

Prof Mac is a good person but not cut out for teaching. He uses a lot of real world examples instead of actually teaching material that shows up on the quizzes and final. Due to this the lectures are practically useless! Your best bet is to still show up to class but definitely depend on reading the textbook because lectures are irrelevant.

Worst professor ever. He is knowledgeable about subject but very tough grader and expects people to be experts. Expect to work more than 20 hours a week just for his class.

Professor Mac is fantastic. I'd take many more courses with him if they were offered and fit my career trajectory; Professor Mac is a professional educator with industry experience to back up the teachings.

Great person and funny guy, but not quite cut out for teaching. Makes the lectures fun and enjoyable to listen to, so go if you want but don't bother taking notes because he doesn't know how to use clickers to take attendance, and none of it will be on the test. read the book and do the homework and you'll probably be fine. READ THE BOOK

Prof Mac is super nice, but an awful prof. His lectures were useless for tests because he taught using real-world examples and the tests were textbook-based. He doesn't cares about the success of his students-our quiz avg was low all semester, & he promised us he'd round the avg up but he never did. Better off teaching yourself w/ the textbook.

Prof. Mac doesn't even make his own quizzes or lecture slides, so naturally he doesn't teach effectively to them. He makes the final, but since the whole rest of the class is based on the textbook there's no way to prepare for it. He spends the whole class rambling about the Westin hotel and when the final average was a 67% he didn't curve. Rude.
