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.

i used youtube more than this course

This course is NOT for anyone who has NO previous accounting or business experience as it is WAY too advanced. For someone in my situation, who is just looking to build business acumen in general and interested only in an overview of concepts ( just enough to make sense of a company's financials) this was WAY too difficult. I had to pause and go back SO many times. Take quizzes 2-3 times each. Tried my best to follow along, but was completely lost by Week 2, so it only went downhill from there. It felt like a course you'd take if you actually wanted to DO the job of an accountant - which is NOT the case for me. I didn't mind the animations as it was the only "light" content. Lol.

The information in this class is really mismanaged. When presenting math and policy, state them first, and then allow students to work through how to apply them. What I marveled at through the two modules I took before I gave up is how much effort it takes to screw up the presentation of something as linear as equations, rules and procedure. Present cheat sheet for printing at the beginning of the course and then give us problems to work through. I spent way too much time guessing at obscure nuances through the quizzes.

The instructor is nice, but this course is NOT suitable for beginners. The prior knowledge needed to succeed in this course is not covered, and the homework quizzes are extremely challenging and filled with trick questions and uses terminology that is not known to beginners.

Coursework did not give adequate information to be prepared for exams. Generally unhelpful information.

Most poorly taught course I've ever taken!!

This class is extremely confusing.

acounting seems to be so boring

dont understand it
