‘I wish I would have taken it before my accounting core’
“Mr. Jones is extremely knowledgeable in this matter. He is always available to answer any questions we may have. Also, he goes out of his way to make sure everyone understands the topics and gives us tools to do well on the exams. Even though we have time restrictions due to this being a summer course, he made every effort to fit the material and still make sure it was clear for everyone. This is not an easy class, but he surely made everything run smoothly. I learned so much in this class. I wish I would have taken it before I took all my accounting core, it would’ve made a big difference! We need more professors like him.”
