By far the best acc. teacher Ive had. I am at UCF and looking back hes awsome. If you spend time studing outside of class and review his review sheets you will do fine. Got an A in both classes.

One of the best accounting teachers I have had. I currently going to UCF, getting my masters in accounting. Taking his class helped me out greatly in my undergrad. If you plan on going on for accounting I would recommend.

Nice guy but wastes time talking about junk. Doesn't teach very well. You really must make time for this class to be able to do well if you don't have a knack for acctg.

Very easy class. I took financial accounting once and did badly (the teacher was terrible) so I took it again and Sylvester taught it much more simply. He's a little out there but a very, very nice man.

Great Teacher! Always there to help, even on a Sunday night at home and at 7:30 in the evening! With listening to the lectures, the handouts and working on your own (it's is all about practice), there is no way someone can not make an A

This man couldnt teach a fish how to swim. Trust me, if you want to learn accounting you would be better off taking a cooking course. Sylvester, if you are reading this, do taxpayers a favor and retire. You are wasting all our money.

Comment:

He might be nice, but he is very confusing. The handouts are easy to follow and if you take time to read the book you should get a good grade. But, I didn't learn anything from his talking. I only learned studying on my own. He didn't really teach us, he just talked off-topic.
