Comment:

Dr. Little is very challenging in his Accounting 201 course but he is not delusional about it. He sets you up to succeed if you LISTEN to what he says in the class. He challenges you in a good way. He will call on you in class. I am writing this because he was my favorite professor that I have had at WKU. He truly wants you to succeed.

Comment:

ACCT 201 is a hard class, and out of the options, Dr. Little is the best. That said, I taught myself the majority of it outside of class and he explained my questions about the material in class. If you have to take this class, he's the one to take.

Comment:

Dr. Little cares a lot about his students and is usually willing to work out homework problems for them in class if asked. Plenty of examples are worked out for each new concept, so if you put forth effort and ask questions when you are having trouble, there is no reason you shouldn't succeed.

Comment:

I've had Dr. Little for both Financial and Managerial accounting classes. Both classes have been some of the hardest I've ever had to take; HOWEVER, you can see that Dr. Little genuinely cares about the students & knows so much about accounting. As long as you do what he says (practice outside of class) and come to class, you will do fine.

Comment:

This class consists of basically teaching yourself managerial accounting and then him tweaking your errors. This class was so unbelievably hard, especially for non accounting majors. Be prepared to dedicate more time to this class than your actual major. But hey, he had the best reviews and I'm sorta passing. I wish he'd teach differently.

Dr. Little is a great prof, Very good at explaining things. Doesn't allow makeup work and gives lots of pop quizzes, quizzes are easy grades but you have to be in class.

This class is hard. Attendance isn't mandatory but there are so many quizzes you pretty much have to be there. I am an A student and struggled tremendously with this course. Take someone else.

Dr. Little is not the easiest professor, but I promise you will learn and retain more from him than anyone else. I highly recommend his class, just be prepared to study quite a bit outside of class.

Comment:

Doctor Little seems to be a nice person. His class however is extremely difficult. Attendance isn't mandatory but if you miss you will be completely lost. You have to do a LOT on your own prior to beginning a chapter and have an understanding of it before he even begins to teach it. There are also quizzes nearly every class. This class = struggle.

Comment:

This is the hardest class I have ever taken. I have never made below a B in college and I struggled through his class the entire time. Do not take him for acct 200. I heard 201 is not as bad but if you are not an accounting major he is not the person to take.

BEST teacher! He teaches accounting the right way- you do a lot of hands-on applications in class and somewhat review the chapters. You'll need to study the chapters on your own to get the definitions and such but he makes sure you know how to apply the problems. Highly recommended!!!

Comment:

This professor is very friendly and cares about his students but he expects his students to change their learning style (which can be very very hard to do). You have to read the chapters before coming to class and have questions ready for when he asks. He goes over examples and works problems in class.

Professor Harold Little is a great professor, recommended if you come to the class with the intention of studying only. I had no prior knowledge of accounts but 16 classes in two semester and i have excelled my subject. he explains the concepts in a detail and with examples. He makes students do excersie in class for practice. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Comment:

Be ready to teach yourself the material. He mainly does exercises and expects you to learn on your own. Keep up with the connect plus and learn smart. You'll have to do EVERY learn smart which is very tedious. His tests are extremely complicated. Questions come from everywhere. His study guides aren't clear along with his very very fast teaching skills. I do not recommend this professor.

Dr. Little is a great teacher and gives good examples to get his point across. The class is a hard class regardless of who you take, but he really does want to see his students succeed. As long as you keep up with the work and homework then you should do fine. Just dont get behind and let the work snowball on you!

A very smart professor who knows Accounting. Very nice and definately willing to work with you if you show the effort. A bit scatterbrained at times, but he knows how to be fair. Recommended.

He is very smart and understands acct to it's fullest, but he lacks the ability to explain it well in a classroom situation. Although, if you come after class he will work one on one with you. Do not expect any curves or sympathetic grades.
