VERY good and caring teacher. Tests are very difficult, but she gives you the HW answers so that helps your grade. Will work with you if you arent happy with your grade. Would take again.

Comment:

Leigh Waggoner is by far one of the best teachers ever. You do have to put in work for the class, it is accounting after all, but she makes it so much easier. She's great at explaining things. She is always enjoyable to talk to and she really makes every effort to make sure that you know the information. I would take her for every class if I could.

Comment:

Waggoner is an angel. She understands not everyone in there wants be an accountant and its a principles class so she doesn't go over the top with what she tests you on. However, she is not a pushover and the class needs to be taken seriously. She gives you the hw answers the day its due and curves most tests by about 10 or so. Great woman.

Comment:

This class is super boring, but she does her best to teach you the material. Usually curved our tests by about 10 points. Has 1-2 homework assignments online each week. She prints out the homework answers so you just have to actually submit the answers. Study the lecture notes, not anything on Connect.

Comment:

She makes a hard course more manageable! She gives out answers to problems on half of the homework and the other half of the homework isn't bad. The exams (multiple choice) and material are difficult, but that will be the case with any professor because accounting is difficult. The only negative is that she goes through the material rather fast.

Comment:

Goes too fast, assumes we are all accounting majors, I made a 40 on the first test and asked her what I was doing wrong and she asked me if I was studying 15 hours a week out of class. No? lol. Doesn't explain as well as she thinks. Does go over the homework in class so youll get As on all that. Uses abbreviations and doesnt tell you what they are

Comment:

She's a wonderful professor. Super understanding. While there is tons of work, she gives you the answers before it's due. She wants you to pass, but she also wants you to at least attempt everything. Feels like homework shouldn't be mini-exams, like it often is. I'd love to take her again for another course.

Comment:

I had a very difficult time in accounting 1 with the material. Once I got into accounting 2, I was worried. But this prof. was amazing. She will go above and beyond to help you get the grade you want. You do have to put in effort because the material is hard but I wouldn't take accounting with any other professor! Gave you an old exam to study with

Comment:

If you don't take Waggoner for Accounting you are wrong. She is super sweet, and helpful and doesn't want anybody to get a bad grade. She curved all of the tests by 10-15 points. Is it easy? I only went on to class on exam days and made an A.

Comment:

Mrs. Waggoner made this class easier to understand. If you had problems, she was easy to get a hold of and would meet you to help. You have homework assignments, but she pulls them up in class before the due date to go over it. She does take attendance.

Comment:

Wagoner is a great teacher for accounting. She knows her stuff when it comes to accounting. She will get boring with her lectures, but she went over our homework in class, and all the tests except the final are online. If you are looking for a class where you dont have alot of homework, somewhat easy, and have a teacher that cares then take her.

Wagoner expects a whole lot out of you. You MUST study in this class and put forth effort. If you do that you will be fine. She is a wonderful teacher that is willing to help. She is nice and rarely keeps you in class the entire time. Take her.

Comment:

Waggoner is a great professor. She expects a lot out of her students, so be sure to study a lot for the exams. I'm not an acct major and she made me love the class even though I had to work hard for my A. She replaces your lowest exam score with your final exam score if it is higher, so don't worry if you fail her first exam. I did and I got an A

Waggoner knows her stuff. I am not an accounting major and personally hate accounting but she made the class interesting. Im not saying shes not tough because she is but its not impossible to pass her class if you just go to class and pay attention to every detail. You also have to do alot of learnsmarts and homework thats the only downside.

Can't get around the fact that the material is extremely difficult...but if you know how to work hard and are determined to actually learn, and not just get by easily, then i strongly recommend her. she helped me out in many ways, just beacuse i work hard and asked!

Don't take her unless you are planning on being an accounting major. It's almost impossible to make an A in the class.

Comment:

Professor Wagoner is a very good teacher. She is very clear on what she expects you to know for the tests, and gives lots of practice problems. She encourages you to spend an hour every night practicing (haha). If you put forth the effort, you can get the grade. She curves all the tests, and is there to help.
