When I entered his class in the beginning around 2005, groups of people started leaving after he explained class rules and schedule. He is a little too aggressive and not sensitive to all students.

I enjoyed the class and the stories from his real life experience. I feel he is excellent at understanding and answering student questions. He teaches/covers material quickly if you don't ask questions. So you need to have the guts to ask! To get an A as I did you need to read the book and do the homework. If you don't expect a D in the class.

I'm taking two online accounting classes using the same textbook (Wild & Shaw - 25th ed.) and the biggest difference is that Daniel's course has a quiz or hw due every day. In my other class, some of those homeworks are considered extra credit and the homeworks are due only every 2 weeks. Daniels' format offers you very little flexibility.

Took this class in fall 2022 and I found it to be very well organized with a professor that is responsive and high caliber. Dr. Daniel makes you rise to college level expectations and pushes you to do well by studying, studying, studying. It is a lot of work that pays off in the end by you really knowing the accounting information. I give it a like

DO NOT TAKE THIS PROFESSOR'S CLASS if you care about having any type of free time. The online McGraw Hill assignments took me up to 30 hours EACH for 5-point assignments. He doesn't teach you at all and gives out an insane amount of homework. PLEASE TAKE ANOTHER PROFESSOR, SAVE YOURSELF.

I just finished this class and earned an A. I have learned so much. It is a lot of work and that helped push me to do better than I would normally do. The class is structured and the due dates are the due dates. Everything is very well laid out. If you want to really learn accounting this is the class for you. I am very glad that I took this class.

Dr. Daniel's class has a strictly structured schedule that makes independent study easy to follow along. Chance to fall behind in this class because of the heavy workload. I worked hard to earn my grade for ACCTG1, and will be taking his ACCTG 2 course next!

Professor Daniel runs a structured class, but be prepared for a heavy workload. While helpful resources like the textbook and unstuck ai can aid study, the class requires significant time commitment. Attend class and stay on top of assignments to succeed.

This Accounting class by Dr. Daniel is one of the hardest, but it is also one of the most thorough college classes that I have taken. He does not cut corners. Every topic is covered in detail, which requires a lot of work and pays off in the end. His teaching style is straightforward and no-nonsense. I very strongly recommend for serious students.

Dr. Daniel runs a rigorous online accounting course. The workload is very heavy, especially if you fall behind. It is not a “watch videos and pass” class. That said, the course is well structured, and the professor presents concepts clearly and thoroughly. If you're willing to put in serious effort, you'll come out much stronger in accounting.

This is not an easy online class. The workload is heavy and you must stay on top of everything. That said, the professor is excellent. Lectures are clear, expectations are spelled out, and nothing feels unfair. If you put in the time and actually do the work, you will learn a lot. Great professor. This class demands a lot effort, but it's worth it.

Be prepared to work hard as this is a demanding online accounting course with no shortcuts. I had to stay disciplined and organized to keep up with the material. Dr. Daniel course itself is very structured, which helped me know what was expected. I worked much harder in this class than most others, but I also learned much more than I usually do.
