Loved this course! Because it was via videos, you could pause and digest the material at your own speed. More challenging content than I expected so felt I learned a lot. Will take another course!

I like the course content and the amount of examples he gives. However, the animations are annoying

I've done quite a few online classes, both through Coursera and through other places. I did not find this class helpful at all. I might have felt differently if the teacher spent more time actually teaching and less time arguing with the fake AI students. Telling a computer generated image with a computerized voice, "Well, I'm certainly not going to argue with your sister from Hong Kong!" after being told "well my sister in Hong Kong said your wrong!" is just not helpful.

The digital "students" in between lectures are quite distracting and I think the instructor tried to make it realistic by having them in the lectures, but most of the times their english is weird and mechanic and also some scenes like students sleeping cuz bored... These are waste of time and not fun at all, after many repetitions of such scenes. Got distracted throughout the course

I think that the professor is very nice. The problem I had with this course was that I learned how to calculate some things, but I don't really understand why do I calculate them. I think that this course is not for future accountants - because it is not in-depth enough, so it should be less about calculating things and more about what is accounting actually about.

The lectures are long and not as efficiently or logically organized as they could be in order to impart the basic understanding that the quizzes ultimately ask for. I found myself using the PDFS and it was easier to follow that way.

The professor spends too much course time making jokes and banter with the fake students. Lectures feel very rushed and definitions not well explained. Please remove the fake students and just answer the questions.
