He's such a cool dude. Clearly knows what he's talking about. Very friendly to talk to and ask for help with parts of the content. He got rid of a lot of the weekly quizzes which was such a stress reliever. The only thing about zakota is the lack of study material that he provides but with what he provides, it's still sufficient to do well in the course and on the exams. I would 100% recommend him for 221

Zakota is genuinely the GOAT. His lecture slides are detailed and informative (sometimes TOO informative for someone handwriting their notes lol), and he makes them very personal with his AI generated images and handwritten notes. The exams are difficult but nothing crazy, and it's definitely content that was covered in class. Homeworks are much easier than Accounting 1 homeworks, and Zakota actively contacted Connect to give us more "hints". Genuinely couldn't have asked for a better professor for this course.

he is zagoata Zakota is a great professor. He is kind and not at all annoying. His lectures are thorough, and his slides are fun and easy to refer back to. He gave us a free 100% on the last quiz hence why I am writing this review. The exams are harder than the quizzes and the content covered in class but it's nothing you can't study for, and they're all multiple-choice. You couldn't ask for a better professor to teach this course.

This was his first semester teaching at UMD so his administration of exams and quizzes felt a little unorganized. However, he's a very friendly and knowledgeable professor. He also got rid of the whole one quiz each week thing which took a huge stress load off my shoulders. His grading ranges are pretty generous and the quizzes were easy. The only downside was the exams which were much harder than the content we covered in class and discussion and he gave very little practice for them outside of one practice exam and the class slides. If you pay attention and study each week you'll be fine, attend lectures, go to discussions, and there is no way you'll get below a B.
