Reviews of professor Jim Power

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Covers the content of the course very well, calling randomly on students which helps engage them in the lecture. Also does textbook examples in class which help prepare for tests. Overall a good instructor and would recommend.

At most will speak of the subject but won't actually teach you, tells you to read the textbook and offers lecture videos then doesn't show what he's talking about on the screen. Will sometimes do examples in the lecture videos but will not show or tell you the correct answer so you don't know if you're on the right path. Really doesn't care.

Professor Power teaches content in a way that is easy to understand. He often picks on people to answer questions, but I think that it was very beneficial in paying attention and making sure you got the content down. Doing the practice problems from the textbook was helpful to prepare for quizzes and exams.

No mercy.

Did not enjoy ACCT215 with Prof Power whatsoever. He chose to pre-record all lectures before-hand (super boring and not engaging at all) and then host one synchronous lecture a week to answer questions. He never taught live, which I found extremely difficult to learnwith. The content of this course is hard, and I had to teach it to myself.

Explained concepts really well, lectures and practice questions directly applied to tests which had a bit of a time constraint but where straightforward. Calls on people randomly in class which was initially annoying but ended up being a good thing

There is a lot of in class forced participation with Jim as he calls people out randomly throughout every class to answer questions. Fairly intimidating at first but really doesn't matter if you are right or wrong lol just try. He has a hilariously dry sense of humour and his lectures are enjoyable

Jim power is a really good at getting his points across and filtering out useless info. Calls out on students but it helps you pay attention during class. He always made me engaged in lectures and would often tell stories to help you understand the material. Would really recommend him for acct 217

He is a, okay professor. Get ready to have long lectures every day. doesn't give you time to do in class practice, as soon as you get onto the second part he instantly starts on reviewing the questions giving no time to the rest. He doesn't give you any feedback on the tests just a mark if its right or wrong. Least caring professor.
