REAL GOOD TEACHER!!!! SHE'S CLEAR, SHE GIVES LOTS OF OPPORTUNITIES, SHE MAKES HER CLASS VERY INTERESTING... FOR THE EXAMS, SHELL GIVE YOU A REVIEW AND EVERYTHING THAT YOU FIND IN THE REVIEW IS ON THE TEST... OFCOURSE FOR ACG2021 AND ACG2071 YOU HAVE TO STUDY AND DO YOUR WORK... ONE OF THE BEST TEACHERS I EVER HAD
Took this class online and found it extremely easy. Professor Balmori helps you out tons! You can take the tests twice and you also have make up sessions. I loved her!
Great professor, there is not much to say she is everything u expect in a professor. She is highly recommended.
Really good teacher. I really enjoyed her class. Her tests are fair and her way of teaching is great!
This is the most qualified professor there is at MDC to teach accounting. She really is that good, no lie. Prof Balmori is not out to get you. She will work with you in whatever you need help on. She grades in a way that gives students the advantage and as long as she sees that you try, passing the class shouldn't be a challenge.
Okay, well if your looking for an easy slack class...this isnt the way to go. The class is not easy but its doable. Shes cool, you just have to work at it. You have 3 assignments due every week a quiz, accounting problems and a ethics case. Trust me, if you do your work..you will get an A. I slacked so I gotta B.
Best professor ever! loved the class and learned a great deal.
What can I say? I LOVE HER! She is definitely one of the best professors at MDC. This is not an "easy" class, but as long as you pay attention in class, take notes, do the online quizzes, and the extra credit, you'll be fine. The lowest test grade gets dropped. She is super nice, a really sweet lady. I will definitely be taking managerial with her!
Took this class online. As long as you know how to read you can pass this class. Gives you two weeks to turn one assigment, quiz( you get two chances) and an ethics case. I have four kids and no time to really do school and this class is easy!
She is awesome!
My first on-line class and the experience was extraordinary. She is an excellent Professor, very helpful and fair. Weekly quizzes are easy and can be retaken if needed. Final is comprehensive, technical and a lot of computations.
this is my first online course and it wasn't easy at all but Prof. Balmori was very fair and willing to help. I got an A. Try to buy the book before the course starts.
answers for the quiz and final are online, just type in the questions on google. .Only hard thing about the class are the excel problems. the gl problems are easy cause they have the answer within the program. all you have to do is hit the check mark and it gives you the answers and a grade. if do not want to learn you take this a****
Really Great teacher... You will lear... She is fair snd not boring
Really great teacher. Helps you out alot with extra credit. Read chapter ahead of time and study details if you want an A.
Great teacher of Accounting. I took both Financial courses and the Managerial with her. She used the same book for all 3 classes. Easy to understand but pretty laid back. I recommend all of her classes.
I took her class online for ACG2001, and it was a big mistake. Thank God!! I had friends to help me. The was she explained things when you ask her a question was like you should already know from reading the book alone. I don't recommend her.
She is the most effective and supportive professor in MDC.
She was very nice.
Awesome professor
Get teacher she is very helpful and always willing to her. You can got to her office and ahe will help you on whatever you need. She is very understanding and if you just ask her she tries her very best to help. Two thumbs op if your reading this take hyer you won't be disappointed. Very good with answering emails. LOVE HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She is super nice, loves teaching, is there for any help that u may need. Explains everything with clarity nd u really LEARN _BUT_its alot of work. u have HW nd QUIZZES which u HAVE to do Nd u have 3 exams of which the lowest grade is dropped nd the final is accumulative. If u dont have time DONT TAKE HER. Other than that definatly RECOMMEND.
shes really nice, and she tries to teach in ways that are interesting, she wants you to pass, she has kids in college so shes understanding, over all a great teacher even if your taking her online, the only thing is she doesnt answer your emails if your taking online classes like my friend did, but in person shes great
I took both accounting classes with her she's great. She loves teaching and trys to do everything she can to help you. I had no interest in accounting and I thought it would be hard but with her its manageable. Overall great teacher.
Took the online class. It is horrible. I found several errors on tests, instructions are super hard to understand. Work is easy if given the correct instructions. She seems like a very nice person and I have read that on campus, she is a great teacher, but this accounting 1 online class is the pits. I am so sorry I ever took it.
I didn't hate her as a teacher but she wasn't my favorite. I was okay in the first exam but got totally lost in the 2nd exam. She goes over the material and makes sure you understand it, but I felt like she tried to squeeze in as much info in a short period of time.
took online, googled answers for the test/quiz, you will need to do the assignments though that are time consuming.
Accounting is her love, She explains it in a manner that makes it seem as a How To for Dummies. Very understandable and is willing to assist you with any problems. The best teacher for responding to emails and communication. 2 semesters with her and I enjoyed every minute of it. Another great professor at Miami Dade College
explain as though you know what she talking about. doesn't provide you with any reviews. her grading is so so. if your an accounting major, and you love it you will love her.
She is very flexible when she looks that you are interested in the class.
She is very flexible if she looks that you are interested in her class.
Professor Christine is everything you expect from a professor. Her classes are very enjoyable. She is helpful, dedicated, and inspiring. She is very fair when it comes to grading. There are plenty of extra credit opportunities in her classes. I have taken two classes with her so far and I scheduled another one.
Every time you try to ask her a question, she answers with something that's either completely off-topic, or gives you something completely vague. Her online tests were full of errors, and every time I pointed them out, her answer was basically "Oh well, too bad." Eventually I gave up and asked my old accounting teacher when stuck. Do NOT recommend.
Prof Balmori is very good. Accounting is hard, but she knows how to explain very well the material. You just have to do your part, for example, my final grade wasn't that great because i didn't do all the HW. I'm taking another class with her this summer.
I took this course online and she helped me out a lot. She does respond emails efficiently. You can take the quizzes twice. There is I believe 3 or 4 exams and a final. Do the online homework. It will help boost your grade. I would prefer to take this type of class in person but overall it wasn't too bad if you are the dedicated person.
Professor Balmori is a great teacher in the aspect that she teaches clearly, is willing to help whenever (especially during office hours), and is very nice. Her tests are moderately hard, nothing too bad.. you must read from the book for homework and tests. Attendance is also mandatory. So do ALL of her homework, study, and show up to class.
I took both accounting with her and thought she was great at explaining and very helpful. Wouldn't take any other professor for that class. She really cares and knows her subject very well.
She is a great accounting professor. There is a lot of material and she tries to cover all of it quickly, so you might need to try to keep up with her but it will be worth it, you'll learn. Her tests are mostly multiple choice, they are somewhat hard if you don't study or learn the material. She also gives multiple extra credit opportunities.
If you are an accounting major you will probably like her. I don't like her style of teaching, I like a professor that can give you real life experiences and examples. Also, I like a professor that shows you how to do the problems in the back of the book, so when you see It on the test its not foreign. Her extra credit is not very motivating either
Shes a great professor! She will work with you to help you pass the class. I really enjoy accounting and she made it seem so much more easier. Loved her!!! Take her!!!
If you don't read the book and teach yourself you won't pass. On the very first day she was lecturing like it was day 10 and she already went over the material. It was so confusing, she moves way to fast, instead of making sure everyone understand. If you ask for help she'll explain the work the same way she lectured it, still confusing. Smh.
Came here just to say this is the best professor I've ever had at FIU or Miami dade. Clear lectures, doesn't just read from a power point, makes it easy to learn. Fair graded tests and overall good class, took both accountings with her. Best ever
Professor Balmori is one of the nicest professor's I've had at MDC! She is always there for you if you approach her and is willing to help you if she sees your putting in effort. Very straight forward. Her test are not so difficult if you study and pay attention. She knows her stuff very well and can explain good. Definitely recommend her!!!
Im taking her again! Best teacher I have had at MDC. Very passionate about teaching and her profession. Absolutely crystal clear lectures and grades very fairly with extra credit opportunities. I fell in love with accounting because of her.
Best Professor ever. Very helpful. Don't take accelerated or midterm but for a full semester She is awesome and passionate
Professor Balmori is one of the best professors at Miami Dade. If your major is Accounting, then definitely register for her classes ( fin and man). I am so glad that I took her accounting classes. As long as you pay attention in class and do her homework, you should be fine. Her tests are not that hard and gives lot of extra credit opportunities.
Her lectures are pointless, she likes to ramble a lot. She expects you to know the material. If you want to pass the class you have to read the book and teach yourself!
Amazing Professor that is willing to help her students in any way she can. Loves to give us references about her life and real life scenarios in order to teach her lesson. Besides that when you speak one on one she truly cares for you as a student and a person. Really inspirational, might even switch my major over to accounting.
Took her online. Great teacher and goes out of her way to make sure you pass. Highly recommended!
She provides excessive extra credit opportunities and if you attend everyday the students that are present will only receive it. She is delightful, she is able to help you and explains the material somewhat coherently. 3 tests: multiple choice + work problems and a cumulative final: multiple choice only. You will learn with her, I recommend her.
Amazing and caring professor. You must go to class and pay attention in order to pass! She provides many opportunities for extra credit. Take advantage of all of them if possible, because they can easily make the difference between a B and an A. Seeking help early on will ensure you do well as the class progresses! Be respectful, it will pay off.
If you are a fast learner and Accouting is your major, take her. She talks fast and give a lot of material in class. Extra credit doesn't help (2 and 3 points for each test)you wont pass if you dont pass your test (65% of the class) She is not a professor that can teach everybody, just the smart ones.
Prof Balmori is a great! I took her for managerial accounting, I regret not taking her for financial. She gives plenty of extra credit opportunities, nothing unexpected on exams only what she covered, but you definitely have to put work in. She is very nice
Professor Balmori was an good teacher, however the class itself requires effort and time. If you go to class and take all the notes and examples, you will most likely pass the tests. Study off of her test outlines and tests do become WAY easier! Take advantage of all extra credit as it can make a difference in grade, I would take her again.
Amazing Professor! Accounting is not an easy subject for most. She is a very careing teacher who wants you to pass. She goes the extra mile for you. Also, don't be lazy, do everything you can, she will pick up on all the effort you do. All in one, read the chapters, do all the homework and extra credit, see the tutor and you will pass!!
Shes a good teacher but she goes way too fast .Im going to be honest, I did study a lot and I tried to learn as much as I could but its hard.
Prof. Balmori teaches you in detail the material that will be covered on the tests. There are five HW's online and two excel problems which are easy and boost your grade up. Just get ready to study outside of class. Whatever she teaches, that will be the main things in the test. Other than that you should be fine. (p.s she also offers extra credit)
If you're an accounting major and you plan to transfer to FIU, she is your professor. Everything that she covers in ACG2021 will be in FIU Accounting Entrance Exam. I took both ACG2021 & ACG2071 with her, and I passed the FIU Exam with ease. ACG 2021 and the Cashflow chapter from CGG2071 is enough for FIU exam. Take her, and you won't regret it.
Fantastic Professor. Get ready to work, to read and to train your memory! One of my favorite teacher in MDC. Don't take this class if you don't want to study. Accounting is not so hard, it is just a way of thinking...
She teaches very fast, and doesn't wait until students have grasped material. Doesn't engage with us during lecture to portray better understanding, feedback was given but wasn't helpful. Material needs to be memorized, lots of formulas.
This professor is super nice but her way of teaching is not for me. If you can learn just by listening then take her but she only sits at the desk and talks about the lecture. There's no study guide so you have to know everything that has been taught and actually understand it.
I dont recommended no one to take this class. She teaches too fast. When a students have a question she at time ignore them. Dont help you bring your grade up if you want an extra boots.
If you are a fast learner and you can teach yourself take her but if not I dont recommend this professor and she doesnt give study guides for test so you will have to read and make sure you know all the material.
You have to pay attention and take good notes in this class because she moves quickly. Lots of computer-based homework. Explains thoroughly but does not give you the opportunity to copy everything down. You cannot miss class. Not a bad professor though.
Ifyou have previous knowledge on accounting and you like to study by yourself then youll do good. She teaches super fast and doesnt give you practice problems, reviews or study sheets. Its impossible to learn in her class, if you usually ask questions and she catches you doing something off topic she will call you out and ignore you for the day.
All assignments were due towards the end of the semester so there were no pressure because you were running out of time to complete a certain assignment.
She was more of a course monitor than a professor. It was a generic, online course purchased from McGrawhill - super boring and time-consuming but if you're genuinely interested in accounting then this is a fine self-taught class. I only emailed the "course monitor" once all semester and she responded promptly but didn't actually answer my question
The most terrible teacher I have ever had. Doesnt care about her students, changes deadlines whenever she feels like it. Take this class if youre already an accountant or be ready to fail. Honestly terrible.
I took her class online and she would send out reminder and graded everything on time. If you do all the connect assignments, quizzes and 4 discussions and you pass them all then you can pass the class even if you fail the proctored final that is worth 20% of your grade.
I had to drop the first day of the Fall 2020 semester. She literary just recorded a video of herself first day of class and we were supposed to teach ourself through the whole semester. So much work due on excel. Waste your time and money and do not take her class!!!
Loved her class her lectures were very easy to understand even though they were short. She can be strict about grading but will help out with any questions needed. Definitely recommend very good teacher for Accounting!
Currently taking her again for 2071. Her coursework is amazingly organized on blackboard. Shes very charismatic and caring. Very reachable whenever you need help in anything.
Awful First classes videos of her. Were supposed to meet Tu and Thu, she only show up Tues. Hardly teach us anything. I was in the hospital twice due to respiratory complications. Let her know that I wasnt able to take 2 quizzes and that one of the assignments was not opening, didnt care. Send several email asking help. Rep take class again
Extremely unhelpul professor. She gives 30 mins for 20 questions in a quiz. Basically, you have to read a long problem and solve it in a minute and a half. It doesn't matter if you study, you have to use different tools to help you because even a real accounting professor won't do it in that time. Mi first B or C for sure...
This Professor is the worst educator Ive ever had. She barely answers emails and is very unhelpful. I had to learn everything by myself, she would give 0s like water. She doesnt care about her students and gives a lot of work with an strict deadline. If you dont get an 80% or above in the Comprehensive Problems, she would give a 0.
My only problem with this professor is that she'll answer your emails with answers not relevant to the questions you asked. It's like she doesn't read the full email which is very frustrating. There is extra credit though (2 extra credit assignments with 1% each) and there was only one test so most of the grade was homework.
Extra Credit available, few things are graded. She is a true gem, so caring and knowledgable. Pay attention and take notes and you will pass. She moves fast but will clarify any questions even via email or office hours. Long exams but doable if you study. You will definitely learn, amazing professor to have. I definitely recommend taking her.
Fair enough. A lot of homework but an easy class.
Terrible human being, she is not interested in helping you at all, this semester was terrible, I was very sick, all my teachers understood me, and were very kind except for her. Thank God my GPA is high that it's F didn't affect me much.
This course consists of a weekly quiz, homework assignments, and a final exam. Prof. Balmori's lectures are interactive and instructional. Rather than reading from PowerPoints, she reviews specific details and problems from within the book. Her modules also have additional resources if you find yourself struggling in her course. Great professor!
TAKE HER CLASS! She did give out a lot of assignments and quizzes but it was due at a reasonable date and were easy. The final exam did require with the camera on but overall I would take her class again! I ended this class with a 90%.
Took this class as an online course, I don't know what I was thinking. NEVER TAKE A TAX COURSE ONLINE IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT. I found it so complicated going through a detailed course without anyone teaching you the steps etc. Nothing wrong with professor, just don't take this online if you're not familiar with the topic.
Heavy lectures but she is truly amazing. Everything is online only thing proctored is the final .
