The course is great, however some more depth is required to answer all questions in the student's mind.

Great knowledge achieve

Great experience

This course is a good introduction to basic accounting principles. Overall it's well worth the time: the videos are a bit hasty and feel rushed to quickly explain the principles but if someone really goes through understanding the quizzes and especially the module cases, it will work much better. I would expect a little bit more balance, so I gave this course 4 starts only.

It is an OK course, but for someone like me who had little background of finance still struggled in the class because I felt that many of the concept is no explained clearly. I understand that the professor tried to illustrate through examples but I felt that the example does not explain anything other than merely listed and repeated the numbers.

Overall, the course is an okay introduction, but I was disappointed with the level of guided content provided in resources. Basically, I ended up googling a lot of concepts and learning from other (free) platforms for this content, most of which explained the concepts in a better manner. I am happy to have completed the course, but since I paid for the program, I would have preferred to do less "self-directed discovery" to learn the concepts.

Specific examples of what I mean:

Equations could have been laid out more clearly within lectures, perhaps included in the glossary.

There were several key terms missing from the glossary; the glossary lacked consistency for what was included and what was not.

Often times new terms (or alternative names for concepts) were introduced only during tests and quizzes instead of during lectures and it was not always straightforward or logical what those terms implied.

Some of the quiz/text questions were very ambiguously worded (which did not seem to contribute to critical thinking, though that possibly was the intention).

good, but need to pay to attend test

Recommend the Introduction to Financial Accounting Course from UPenn, which is more informative and more engaging.

Lots of info, but not any practical assignments that can help build this knowledge into practical skill.

Oversimplified. Most of the interesting topics have been avoided in this class and were only covered in the book which was optional.

I find accounting quite boring, so that's why I did not enjoy it.

language accent difficult to fallow

Balance sheets used have mistakes. Also he needs to explain things better.

The instructor talks very fast but he is good. I learn a lot

Not too much value for money (at 38 pounds per month), given the very basic level of the learning material / courses the specialisation has on offer (even though it's being advertised as an intermediate level one).

boring assignments

The content is pretty good. However, it is really difficult to understand the instructor because of his accent. I need to review the transcript all the time.

The question should be more calculation based and little bit more interactive. Students should be aided to dig dipper.

This course offers a very limited scope of accounting. The lecturer has a strong accent which makes the lecture hard to understand. There is only one example discussed throughout the course: the statements of Walmart. I wish that the lecturer could provides more examples covers other accounting principles or some special cases. The quiz is too easy. The peer review assignment, which asks you to talk about a paper on accounting, is like a freshman high school assignment. Overall, I think this course is low quality, and I would not recommend this course.

Hard to understand the instructor. He has a very heavy accent.
