Great instructor. Take him if you can and get ready to practice and do homework assignments. Exams are connected to his presentations, homework and the cookie problem... Do not be disappointed.

I ended up with a C, but he's an excellent teacher. My mistake was I studied the night before an exam and not consistently. Wileyplus was a fun website to do transactions. I remember getting so happy seeing my little box green! When I had trouble I send him an email and he's so helpful!! He's so sweet too and goes over exams before exam day!

He's a nice guy. Classes are all lecture where he goes over chapters before the exam. Exams cover two chapters. SLO's you can work with group. Use wileyplus and the tools on there. You can practice problems,watch videos. Take notes on a document or paper of transactions. Email him if you don't understand something he will answer.

Comment:

Wileyplus is a gem and honestly helped me at least get a C. There are crossword puzzles,videos,problems similar to book, and worked out problems. I would go there to reference to text and do hw/SLOS's. Acct isn't a class you wanna cram 2 chapters in day of/night before exam. I just made silly mistakes on exams when I did that and barely got a C.

I have nothing, but kind things to say about this man. He's great and on canvas he gave us links to Orion practice, textbook, and problems he did himself. The day before any exam he will go over it in class and give us a heads up what might be on it. Pay attention to recordings that was hard part for me and understand DR and Cr.

He's a good professor. He provides you with study guides and many documents for problems he solves in class. He goes over exams and personalize it with anecdotes etc. Very nice guy and will answer your questions. Accounting is tough so study every night,practice transactions and know terms. Do Orion practice,homework,SLOS it will help. Nice guy

Comment:

First day of lecture he played a Katy perry and U2 song. I was thinking damn this prof has a good music taste. He started talking about remaining a positive attitude and this class will be tough. I didn't go in thinking a subject like accounting would be easy, but I got through it with only a C. You need to study A LOT and read and practice.

My god this class was hard. I cannot count how many times I stayed up studying a night before an exam learning 2 chapters of so many concepts and terms. He's a super nice guy, but his test are ridiculously hard. Make sure to study and practice of Orion it helped for me. I only got a C, so if u want an A ace every exam and get help right away

I'm going to tell you what helped me when taking this class. I read the book and studied the online Orion practice over and over till I got 100%. He gives out good study guides too and is extremely helpful if you don't understand something. If you want an A you need to put in the effort and time to ace all those exams. There tricky so study.

Comment:

This course was tough and I feel accounting will just be hard either way. You have to know the debits and credits and practice every night. If you want an A you need to Ace every test. To do that you must read the book and do extra problems. Wileyplus won't help you need to do them. Homeworks, SLOs, and exams not cumulative. Very tough class
