I found Professor Tarasewich to be a decent lecturer, though dry. The class structure was repetitive but predictable, making it one of my easier to manage courses for the semester. He definitely is not the most up to date/knowledgable about Excel and SQL, but I still managed to learn the basics of both softwares.MISM2510 2025-12-10 04:39:43 +0000 UTC
He was always unprepared for class and took a semester to grade homework but would keep giving assignments even though there was no feedback on the previous ones. i did not learn a single thingMGSC2301 2025-04-03 15:47:56 +0000 UTC
very boring professor. dowa not take advatnage of all the things you could really learn with tableauMISM3501 2021-05-03 21:16:57 +0000 UTC
Monotone sound in low volume. Long and boring lecture yet not in depth at all. Expect student to know theories and apply in the hw that he didn't even teach. Ridiculous.300PRICIPLES 2019-05-22 21:03:29 +0000 UTC
He is such a sweet man. Learned a lot in his class though him teaching. Attendance I don't think is mandatory but you'll miss a lot if you don't go to class. I would take his class again. He really cares.BUSN6365 2019-03-28 15:13:16 +0000 UTC
online course so he will not explain everything assigned weekly. his homework is not hard but I never get the way he grades everything. he only gave 1 session every week and use Connect do everything for the course.MISM6202 2018-12-06 21:41:57 +0000 UTC
Not really a bad guy, but a boring teacher. Way too much powerpoint for lectures. All of his classes (I've had 3 of them) cover a ton of content, so a lot to remember. He's a pretty tough grader on assignments and tests, but as long as you show up to class and put in a decent effort getting a B isn't too hard.ISU470 2006-11-30 15:09:19 +0000 UTC
Tarasewich at heart is a good man, but trust me. you wont learn a THING in his class. First of all, he has a horrible monotonic voice throughout the hour and a half, which makes it easy for you to lose your focus or not even come to class. His readings are wayy too difficult to understand and do not pertain to the lectures. i dropped IS cuz of him.ISU300 2006-11-30 09:46:53 +0000 UTC

Tarasewich was ok. he reads the slides word for word for the entire class. If it's not on the slide, then it won't be on the test. Tests are very hard, but always scaled atleast 20-25 points. Bring a pillow to this class.COM 2005-11-25 10:24:36 +0000 UTC
Horrible teacher, I've learned nothing in class, speaks with a low monotone voice so he will lose your attention right away. Does not get his point across. Assigns ridiculous amounts of work. No open book, no open notes exam. Assigns paper after final exam is done with. Avoid this "professor".ISU570 2005-04-14 03:30:28 +0000 UTC
Ok. Pretty boring and very hard grader on projects.IS 2004-09-07 10:59:43 +0000 UTC
easy..everything is PPTSEVERAL2 2004-08-19 19:57:34 +0000 UTC
Forget it, it was like he was reading the chapters he assigned the day before his review of them in class. Can't answer **** confidently, meaning he's unsure, maybe he was new at the class, but it was bs. Also he makes you show your ID at tests.. so lame.COM1315 2003-06-23 13:58:41 +0000 UTC
Horrible teacher, can't answer any questions himself. The entire class would have failed if he hadn't scaled the grades a ridiculious ammount.COM1317 2003-06-22 02:33:10 +0000 UTC
