He might be the GOAT. The market entry project that he assigns is meticulously designed to optimize your success, allowing for his high expectations for the project. Do NOT try to cheat the market entry project, you will have wasted your time taking this course. Do not be afraid to speak to him outside of class, he cares for each and every student.INTB1205 2026-04-28 19:58:32 +0000 UTC
Group project is very important, if you have a bad group your screwed. He is a very tough grader and gives little feedback to justify the grades. He is very nice though and is always willing to help you out and definitely cares about his students.INTB1202 2024-05-21 08:37:24 +0000 UTC
Profess Lovely is, by far, the worst professor I have had since coming here to Northeastern. Although international business courses here are known to be somewhat difficult, Lovely makes it ten times harder than it needs to be. He also assigns a huge Market Entry Research Group project and paper. He is unclear, rude and only pretends to be helpful.INTB1203 2019-04-05 01:23:10 +0000 UTC
This man is the most amazing man I've ever had as a teacher. I am seriously amazed that people on here didn't like him. He makes you work for it but only because he wants the best for his students. HIGHLYYYYYYYYYY recommend taking any class of his you can!!BUSN1101 2018-12-05 21:32:49 +0000 UTC
Professor Lovely is my favorite professor at NEU by far. He made a boring subject a fun class and I never had any problem going. He is a very inspirational man and you know that he is there for you whenever. Studying abroad in the Balkans with him was also amazing. Not the easiest professor but it beyond worth it to know him.BUSNANDPOLS 2015-03-24 10:35:59 +0000 UTC
I loved Professor Lovely! He really cared from the beginning and was also there to help us learn. He made sure to make his lectures interesting and had some interesting group projectsassignments for us to work on. I had a blast and wish I could've taken another course with him! 100% recommended.ORGB3209 2015-02-17 13:27:08 +0000 UTC

Loved that teacher. Very funny and enthusiastic! Definitely take him, he has some really funny jokes! Best part is that he was a Marine soldier!BUSN22 2011-11-20 15:57:52 +0000 UTC
He was a great professor; he kept lectures engaging and made sure he was always available outside of class. He was heavy on one group project, which was annoying if you had a group that didn't do work as I did, but besides that, I really enjoyed his class.INTB1205 2026-04-19 16:13:19 +0000 UTC
Prof Lovely is an amazing teacher. He has endless stories to tell the class and keeps students entertained while connecting his experience to the class content. The class is heavy on group work! Be cooperative and friends with your group, it will help. Harsh grader so pay attention during discussions and make those connections in your papersINTB1202 2022-10-10 17:44:37 +0000 UTC
Professor Lovely has been the best professor I've taken at Northeastern. He is a fantastic lecturer, truly cares about students, and his class is fairly straightforward. He goes above and beyond in being available and understanding to students, and is a genuinely nice guy. As long as you participate in class and do the work, it should be easyINTB1203 2018-05-14 11:50:11 +0000 UTC
Easily the best teacher I've ever had. He has a great sense of humor that made learning very entertaining but also very effective. Also, Prof. Lovely is very fair and helpful to all of his students and generally just a great person. I'd definitely recommend taking any class he teachesBUSN1101 2012-01-25 15:00:37 +0000 UTC
Prof. Lovely is very enthusiastic and prepared. He cares a lot and always makes himself available, so go to office hours. He's a little theatrical. He provides instructions for every assignment, so the outlines are all right there, so you know what to say, super helpful. He does rely a lot on the readings, but the slides in modules are really good.INTB1205 2026-04-13 20:15:39 +0000 UTC
Professor Lovely was the most caring professor I have had in my academic career. He truly wants his students to do well and his class is very interesting and engaging. If you want to do well, you need to participate and prepare for his exams. Group work is worth a lot of your grade but he is extremely accessible outside of classINTB1202 2022-05-09 19:17:29 +0000 UTC
