Reviews of professor Paul Napolitano

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
This was one of the hardest classes I ever at SPS. Heavy reading and weekly assignments that can take hours Please plan accordingly. I work full time, so I spent the whole day Sunday studying and doing homework.  Tutoring .com was my best friend. Very hard material to learn on your own 3 major tests and 4 Major assignments. Professor was very nice.

The class is pretty much self-taught. Homework is posted on a weekly basis. Participation in the weekly discussion board is a must, just answer the question/topic posted by the prof. There is a project and 4 exams. Read the chapters and you'll do fine . The professor is accessible via phone and very fair with grading.

All he does is talk about himself in class and his money. He has a very big and fragile ego and will single students out to pick on and yell at in class. He doesn't teach over 75% of the time and instead talks about himself and his money which is VERY unprofessional. I have not learned anything about economics from this class. BAD TEACHER!!!

Professor Paul or should I say "Pauly" is just an all-around guy. If you were ever late or needed to be late just a simple text or email to let him know is more than enough. He is funny, keeps you awake with his interesting life stories during class, and is just a well-respected man. If I had the chance to take a class with him again. I'd do it.

Difficult bc you teach yourself accounting which is overwhelming and confusing. There is HW, group discussions and a quiz every week. The course work takes HOURS to complete so manage your time. 3 major exams, each assignment is a low grade like 2-5 points so if you miss one it won't affect your final grade too much. Do the work & you'll pass.

My 2nd time having him. He's so funny and he really cares for his students. Makes learning fun and tells a ton of stories. Also don't have your phone out during class.

The lectures he gives are disconnected from the homework and quizzes, so If you're looking to learn the content in the book he's no help. He does however offer his own life stories which I think are more interesting. He gives loads of extra credit for basically free and gives nearly a semester of prep for a project. Paulie is great!

This class was difficult because you have to teach yourself math, there were no lecture videos just an online textbook. Reading was sometimes difficult to understand. Quizez takes so much time to complete, you get 3 tries. Otherwise, the professor gives good feedback and a fair grade.
