Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
feed back on grading isn't helpful. every weeks topic is longer then needed to be. doesn't work with you to be better in class.

After asking for help and explicitly stating I didnt understand any of the references or material, he told me to review the references. The feedback provided on assignments was unhelpful and provided zero insight into what mistakes were made, how to improve, or what was good. He never provided feedback on our forum posts, terrible communicator.

Dr. Kassa is a great professor. One of the best I encountered at APUS. He is one of the very few professors who care about what they are doing. His forums are run very well. His videos are clear and very helpful. His grading is fair. He made me work for my grade. But I learnt a lot. I am surprised by the negative comments here...

No complaints. Mr. Kassa made the discussions interesting. The weekly quizzes and exams are not very difficult. Although he says everything must be turned in by the due date, he leaves the quizzes open throughout the semester. I submitted one of them late and he didn't say anything.

His expectations are too high and do not match the level of the course.

Professor Kassa grades very TOUGH. For an ECON101 to be giving me 'C' and 'D' quality work whilst 300 and 400 level courses are giving me 'A' work is mind boggling. With a 3.83 GPA and only six courses remaining I may fail my first course. He requires a lot from an online university catering to the military knowing we have busy schedules.

He is great. He tries his best to accommodate special circumstances. I had great experience in his class.

Professor Mathewos Kassa was a solid professor, right from the beginning he communicated his expectations regarding participation, responses to forum posts and writing assignments. He was accessible when questions were asked with quick responses. I enjoyed that he took the time to post additional videos of himself teaching the course materials.

The course covered a ton of information in a short time. I learned a lot. I liked Mr Kassa's questions in the discussions. They made me think hard. My only issue is he waits until the end of the week to grade assignments.

I enjoyed this course. I feel different from some of the others here about Mr. Kassa. I found him to be a nice guy. He grades the discussions more strictly than other professors.

I taught myself much of the material and searched the web for the other things I did not know or understand. He acted more as a facilitator rather than a professor. He addressed any questions or concerns very poorly.
