Comment:
Doesn't make the subject interesting and is an overall boring lecturer. He thinks he is tremendously smart - a real gift to the world of tax. His teaching quality is just plain poor, and he doesn't inspire. It's as if he expects his beginning tax students to have 2-3 years of tax law experience. He's a poor teacher - doesn't belong in the classroom

Comment:
He has no class notes and not follow the chapter at all. You have to read the whole book to decide what materials are included in that "subject",which wasting a lot of time,While he could make this simple by just giving out those main points, but he never did this.I am sure that except those native students, no body really understand.

Comment:
He is knowledgeble and his lecture is interesting.He is not a very hard teacher when it comes to the quizes. However, the research project and final are hard. You might be misleaded by the easiness of the quizes and under estimate the difficulty of the reseach projects and the final. Study hard for the final and do well on the projects.

Comment:
ACCT 508 is a tax class. His lecture was fascinating and we learned a lot. There were 3 quizes (30%), 2 research papaers (30%), and a final exam (40%). You will be required to calculate gross income in many particular situations. So there are no multiple questions and you've gotta explain the process and answer in essay format. He is a good prof.

Comment:
Prof. McWilliams is nice, but he never teaches to the point, especially in a tax class which is very challenging. When it comes to exams and research problems, you need to make sure you are 100% correct or else he'll deduct you big time. He does give partial credit, but not much. I'm getting a D in his course right now and I study really hard.

Comment:
He hardly talks he garbles. He never finshes his course outline. He spits on your face when hes in front of you. If you go to his office hours he wastes your time and people standing in line waiting to clarify something.this is because he talks totally out of context and never clarifies your doubt.

Comment:
He is a good speaker but a poor instructor. He keeps spitting while speaking. If you sit in the front you get some. He is very easy, if you study, you will get "A". He can be a bad instructor - if you do not agree with him....

Do the reading and homework problems assigned and you can pass. Tests are fairly easy. He tries to make it less than drudgery.
