The instructor was very dry and at times difficult to understand.

By Alex Istranin on 3/4/2025

I really enjoyed this course. Teacher is excellent and explained everything very clearly. I learnd a lot and feel much more confident in my understanding of bookkeeping now. The course was well-structured and I appreciated the practical examples that helped me grasp the concepts easily. Thank you for this course.

Jafar's material is very thorough and makes it manageable and possible to learn bookkeeping through his teaching. His attention to detail shows that he knows what he is talking about, and that he actually works as a real accountant and not just some one who is selling a course. (You'd be surprised at how many 'fake' colleges there are online, or even how useless Quickbooks Bookkeeping on another educational site is -- and it costs A LOT MORE to take that. I had to complete quickbooks bookkeeping and then RETURN HERE TO FIGURE OUT HOW THE PROCESS OF BOOKKEEPING WORKS. THANK YOU JAFAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Granted I"ll have to take the quickbooks certificiton test, but at least now I can actually demonstrate some knowledge (maybe not yet competence) but at least I know which end is up. Thank you!

When I took up my accountancy course seems difficult to understand, but here it seems accounting is easy, good I chose you to review my accountancy to accept bookkeeping job soon, I am more confident now! or I might take the board exam later, you are a big help to me!

Very good and informative course

By Crystal Jones on 11/15/2020

Im so sorry how disengaging this is. I cannot even focus on the words being spoken with how monotone he is presenting. The volume pitch and tone is important when keeping people engaged and learning. I just cannot do this course. I am sorry.

By Sarah on 11/15/2020

I achieved the level I expected. Thank you

By Vera Mc Kinon on 11/8/2020
