This teacher is very helpful and eager to help students understand the concepts.

Work hard you will get an A. He really tries to make the class fun.

Weimer is very smart. That doesn't mean he is a good teacher. He definately understands material. Tests are extremely hard but he curves at the end. use his office hours, he is very helpful. He trys to have fun in class. Dispite tests grades the class is actually hard to fail between the curve and HW grades.

Professor is enjoyable during class, applies concepts and is determined to help students understand the material. Material is difficult overall, but professor is always available for extra help. Tests can be challenging, but graded fairly.

Don't believe the hype-Weimer is one of the best accounting professors at WSU. Don't expect to just regurgitate what you memorized from the text-on exams you need to be able to actually apply the concepts to a problem. Go to class, pay attention, do the work and you'll do just fine.

Teaching in class is a little sporatic, however, in person a very helpful instructor.

It is strange everyone gives him a bad rating, i thought he was honestly great, and normally i hate all teachers.

Well..he is easy if u have a good background in accounting from high school n stuff. Otherwise u might find him hard to understand! Just read the book do ur homework nd look at the specifics he stresses in class nd ur good. He has like 2problems on tests and rest is MC, which some ppl find difficult. but they are not hard if u kno ur stuff

He literally teaches with his eyes closed, knows his stuff too. This is going to sound werid, but he doesnt assign enough homework... if you dont have a ACCing background this class might be kinda hard... he's cool but maybe you should avoid him

Exams weren't that bad if you really understand the materials. Just as someone stated below me, he does not assign enough homework to truly understand the material on your own. Do yourself a favor...actually use the accounting lab offered by the school. Sandee Penn is the only reason I passed 3020, and I wish I used here expertise for 3010.

Completely disagree with the negative comments, he was a great professor. Be sure to keep up with the homework and reading. Workload is perfect and exams were tough but do-able if you knew the material. Highly recommend taking this class, you will get a lot out of it.

Please refrain from taking the online class. I read similar comments on this site and took the online class. Big mistake!His response to emails is 50-50.I heard similar comments from other online students in my course.Take the assignments seriously as there are only 3 exams that constitute 75% of the score.

I hadn't taken an accounting class before, so I was a little nervous. If you attend class (its mandatory) take good notes, and do homework, then you'll be fine. Someone else posted he doesn't give enough homework. I agree. You have to do more exercises from the book if you're going to do well. Overall a good professor and one I found helpful.

Excellent teacher for a difficult topic. Hate the textbook, though.

You need to do the howe work to do okay. The book sucks, but he does know his subject matter. He is slow in getting back grades, which he needs to improve on. Case studies are easy. You need to do the work, it is a graduate class.

He is great! Study hard, put in the necessary work, and you will do great in the class. He is a good professor. A little stingy on helping you on assignment questions but still, he is the best in the department.

Took the online class, had 5 quizes, 3 short case studies and a final that is 40% of the grade. We attended virtual classroom every week where we could ask questions or solve problems. The professor extended extra hours towards the end if we needed extra help.I learned a lot, he was a great teacher. Cons-very slow with grading, still highly recomen

He is a great teacher! He really knows what he is talking about and takes notice when others need help. The class itself is pretty difficult so you must have take the time to study and do the homework.

Very useful class. The professor knew the subject matter very well and taught that extremely well. Coming from a non business background with no prior to accounting,I still found this class very easy to follow Thanks to the professor. He was ready to spend extra hours to help us understand the course material

GREAT TEACHER! one of my best! he was extremely clear and made sure the class understood before going on. can get awkward when u ask q's because he stares at u until u clarify if he doesnt understand. allows an 8.5*11 cheat sheet for final exam which is worth 30% of ur grade. he snuck in E.C. on the final exam too. would take another class w/ him

Very good teacher

He's a nice guy & means well but even for a foundation class it was pretty advanced. He's very knowledgable but he assumes you are too. He'll do just about anything to keep his students happy so if you're good with the material absolutely take him...if not plan on being VERY discouraged and overwhelmed.

Weimer is a very intelligent and knowledgeable individual.He is helpful and easy to understand.His lectures are interesting and clear.Although, when it comes to the exams he combines too many concepts into one Q, on a level that we never had a chance to practice. But if you study hard, you will do well in class.He is a fair but slow grader.

Weimer's fairly entertaining...material is dry, class optionial is huge positive, entire grade based on 3 exams is +/- depending on who you are, exam questions are rarely difficult.

Great Guy knows his stuff, you will do good in class if you do the homework and read the chapters, go to class and ask questions he is really helpful.

He is not that hard for an ACC course. Read the text, its easier then trying to understand him. If you are someone who needs good lectures, take a different professor. Grading is fair but not easy or lenient.

Dr. Weimer is a great lecturer and makes accounting class interesting. I'm surprised by the low rating he has received on this site. BA6000 isn't a fluff class, but he's reasonable.

Very entertaining teacher, easy exams and fair grading. very helpful when needed, makes the dry subjects very entertaining. I really recommend taking this class.

The professor is very knowledgable and explains topics very well. Explains all homework in detail. There were three exams and two cases determining the grade. None of them were easy but you can do well if you study hard. All in all I can recommend this professor/class. Comments about slow grading are true though.

Excellent teacher, better than most. Extremely boring and paces all over classroom.

He is a very good lecturer but his exams are challenging. If you attend class and understand the homework, you should be fine.

Took him for 5100 and Advanced, 5120. Very intelligent/accessible. Need help, just ask, but come prepared--ask good/relevant questions. He'll challenge you...you should be inclined to push yourself to learn. Want easy, look elsewhere. If you're driven and looking to be an Acctg. Professional, then take Weimer. Highly recommended.

He is a great guy, attend class ask questions and use his office hours. He's very easy to approach and willing to go the extra mile to help you out! Show that you care and are putting effort and you'll receive great guidance. His tests are Mc and problems he is very fair with grading. Great prof would love to take the next ACC classes with him.

This class is tough and he only makes it harder. The stuff talks about in class is relevant but his clarity of explaining is just terrible. I could not follow his teaching and just had to teach myself. Which is better because he makes everything 10x harder. Try to take another professor.

Two thumps up!!!!

TAKE THIS PROFESSOR!!!!!!!

He is the best and smartest teacher at Wayne State. However, he is arrogant. I loved the class and would recommend taking him. It does help if you are good at accounting.

Pros:Content is organized well, easy to follow & easy to digest. Lecture videos are kept short, great for budgeting your time. Lectures are enjoyable - Dan is engaging & does an excellent job taking complex ideas & breaking them into understandable terms. Also good sense of humor. Cons:Slow to respond to email - and slow to post online updates

Brilliant man.

Most people give Weimer a bad review cuz they are upset about how naturally difficult accounting can be. Weimer is a great professor and will do everything he can to help you understand the material. He is more than happy to sit with you as long as you want after class or in his office hours. TIPS: READ the book, Go to his office hours, do EC!

I do not understand why ppl hate him!? Solid lectures. you need to have the chapter read before class to fully understand. exams can be tough but they are not impossible. overall great teacher who cares about his students. but you have to go to him in order for him to help you. do not be shy, he is a great guy who will help you as much as you need.

Ok. So I wrote about Weimer last semester on how you should not pass him. Hes actually better than I thought. After carefully understanding his methods and asking questions, he was never that bad. We just complain as students. He gave out possible 25 pts to earn of extra credit. Just gotta work for that grade is all.

Difficult material but taught well. I read all the material, homework, attended class but the exams were difficult.

While I personally didn't do that good, it was mostly because I struggle paying attention during online classes. But the few times I did pay attention he was teaching passionately and trying to interact with the class the best he could.

He's not bad of a teacher but the only issue that I had in this class was that his quizzes were really hard. We complained to him and he finally made it easier. He doesn't teach well so be ready to study on your own. He's a nice guy and is willing to work after office hours to help you understand the materiel. He does not give extra credit out.

Everybody complaining about hard tests and quizzes needs to step back and take some personal responsibility for their own learning. Prof goes over the slides and clarifies what is on them. If your struggling, you need to go back and re-write them in your own words. Go over the HW and do the adaptive practice as the exam was just as tough as those.

I don't know why people are complaining. The tests are just like the HW problems and quizes, even simplier. Multiple attempts on HW. Didn't watch optional zoom lectures. READ THE BOOK! This is an MBA course. Accounting may not be everyone's forte but if you can't do SIMPLE math do determine if you are over/under budget then get help now.

I like Weimer because he is a good lecturer and makes class interesting with his energy. At the same time, as with 3010, you will have to spend a lot of time with the course material if you want to get a good grade. The pop quizzes are inconvenient but at the same time the bulk of your points come from the test. He tells you exactly what to study.

Professor Weimer was pretty much what I expected the professor for advanced accounting to be. There were only 3 exams, so you needed to do well on those or else. There were also two quizzes, but they didn't count for much. The class is tough, and he expects you to read the textbook so beware.

Overall a good teacher that really does have a passion to teach. Breaks down every lecture into real life scenarios in order for a person to understand. If you ask him questions after the lecture is over, he will be open to answer in a very positive matter.

He wants that all students success.
