Wouldn't take again

She is really nice and knows A LOT about accounting. Her class set up is easy, you have one hw per chapter and 5 exams. She is super old school and doesn't share her powerpoints with you. Her teaching style makes it a little hard to grasp the material, but you can pass the class if you put the work in.
