Some language is not clear and some details regarding debits and credits were not covered thoroughly enough for me, a beginner. Otherwise it's a good coure presented in a very user friendly way!

The course was set up very well but, I would have just preferred to have some sort of workbook that allowed us practice with every aspect of documentation. Repetition makes me better.Thank you.

Really covered all of the important terminology and basics related to bookkeeping. I feel as though I will be ready to step into a bookkeeping role if the other courses are as informative.

This course refreshes some accounting concepts I learned in high school, and also helped me to understand some of the rules of bookeeping which becomes much easier using software.

Course was fantastic. the only part that I needed extra help in was double entry accounting which i did on my own with the help of a practice book from amazon by L Castelluzzo.

Although the focus was often on Quickbooks Online methods, I still gained a lot of very useful knowledge and a greater understanding of Accounting fundamentals and principles.

Fantastic, informative and thorough. Could use a bit more background on the logic of double-entry accounting - I had to look it up separately to really get my head around it.

Great review of Bookkeeping and basic accounting principles. It felt good doing T accounts again. And, it was refreshing to hear accounts keep "cheat sheets" on their desks.

The character Bianca was a nice touch. I wish debits/credits was explained in more detail. It was also difficult to decipher what to write down. Overall it was enjoyable.
