Reviews of professor Johannes Kohler

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Professor Kohler is definitely the best professor I've had at UGA. He is extraordinarily experienced, having started the European Equity Derivatives Desk for JP Morgan in the 90s and knows pretty much everything there is to know about financial markets. The class is lecture heavy, but following along in the textbook is critical. Great guy who cares

Due to his big work experience at JPM is he able to explain every theoretical model with examples from the real world. This is not only very interesting and gives valuable insights but also helps for a better understanding of the topics.
The content of this course is not easy but I would highly recommend it as you learn a lot!

Kohler is a nice guy and likes to interact with his students, but his class was tough. During lectures he would sometimes go off on a tangent and forget to complete what he was saying. Expect lots of homework and a group project.

Professor Kohler is so nice, and you can tell her cares about his students and wants them to do well. The class is not easy, but his caring nature and curves make it a little bit better. Homeworks are decently easy, and the Stocktrak report is not that demanding. Overall, he's a great teacher.

Professor Kohler is a great guy who clearly cares about his students. He is very knowledgable, but he can sometimes go off his notes during lecture and it becomes very confusing. The class isn't super organized and its very hard to pay attention. There are multiple group reports throughout the semester. Toughest class I have taken at UGA.
