The content of the course makes you want to saw your head off with a calculator, but he's not a bad professor. You can tell he knows the content and makes it as bearable as possible.

Stevens is an awesome prof. Although his lectures are as dry as toast he is super easy. He gives you exactly what you need to know before exams, no tricks. He is a slow marker but who cares you'll get an A anyways.

Prof. Stevens is THE best choice for Audit, if you are lucky enough to find him teaching it that semester. He has REAL experience and very deep knowledge of the process and the industry, and you can tell he is very passionate about it all. Straight-forward marking scheme: midterm, final, 15% assignment. Go to class + follow his hints get an A!

Prof. Stevens is a very good professor and overall a really great guy. AIS is honestly just a boring course and he tries his best to make it interesting with mixed results. He tells you exactly what to study and his notes for the class are top notch. If you want to actually learn something and not just get an easy A take him, otherwise avoid him.

Jim has to be my favourite prof! I've taken him for AIS and into to intermediate accounting. I received A's in both classes. I do have to say that he can be boring at times it takes a lot of attention not to daze off. If you listen to him and review slides prior to the exams you'll do fine. He will throw in a joke to see if you're listening. 1010

Comment:

Professor Stevens is passionate about accounting. His online lectures are hard to follow, so much extra information. In reading passed comments about him I am surprised at my experience. Class average is very low, was very inconsistent & unhelpful. Did not provide old exams. And on the final 3 major problems were based on one concept. Discouraged.

Took the online Managerial Accounting (70-255) section with Jim Stevens. Really great professor. Very understandable prof for those not strong in accounting. Made an incredibly boring mandatory course very easy to follow. Recommended for sure

I HATE ACCOUNTING! But Jim Stevens made it SOOOO EASY AND UNDERSTANDABLE! no wonder he gets "prof of the year for accounting department." I had to take this course twice because previously some idiot prof didn't make sense and I only got 8% on the midterm...yes only 8%. With Jim Stevens, my final mark was A-. Amazinggg prof

Jim is incredibly kind and helpful. He loves what he does and it shows with the high quality of his teaching. I admit, the class can get boring, but it is audit after all. Jim also assisted me outside of class with a dilemma I had with the ICAO. I'll never forget how hard he worked to help me despite being incredibly busy. Highly recommended!

he tries really hard to crack a joke and have some fun but he fails terribly. he also lectures with his eyes closed ? so it's hard to pay attention. he reads off slides and makes students feel dumb if they dont understand immediately.

Great professor. Really helpful if you don't understand the material. Uses lots of examples in class. Multiple choice questions on the exams are tough, but will give you pointers on what to look for on the exams. Best accounting prof I've ever had!
