This is a good course if you have the basic foundation of accounting already. He moves pretty quick but if you the foundation, it's a great course.

By Lisa Cuddy on 1/6/2020

Yes, it's been 20+ years since I worked in Accounting and I needed a refresher course, starting with the basics. After I complete this course, I plan to look for other, more advanced courses by this instructor. I like his explanations-very simplified and relating to everyday experiences. Thank you!

I have no complaints regarding the contents of this lecture, but there were technical issues with the video. There were occasional glitches, where parts of the screen blacked out for a few seconds (I have not experienced this with other Udemy courses). The sound could also be better. The lectures were probably recorded using a subpar microphone. No actual content was lost due to this, I was able to understand every word, but it was a bit tiring to listen to bad audio for an extended period of time.

Very good and gave me the general info that i needed at the time

By Kevin Katjita on 11/2/2019

Well explained and easy to follow. The instructor did a good job of going over some of the points more than once - very good short and quick overview

By Abhijith B on 10/11/2019
