I love David Waite, and thoroughly enjoyed his class. However, his Entrepreneurship 180 class was somewhat difficult because of the lack of understanding the financial statements. While most students in the class were experienced accounting majors, the few students that were new to the material struggled understanding the Balance & Cash Flow sheets

Accounting is a tough subject but David Waite is always ready to help you out when you don't understand. Professor Waite was a huge help outside of the classroom. When I was interviewing for jobs, he reached out to his connections to answer my questions and I was able to find a company with the right fit for me.

Brother Waite is one of the best teachers I have ever had. Very kind very funny but also cares a lot about who you become as an individual. More than a professor, a friend, mentor, and advocate. Would definitely recommend taking any class with him.

I was a business major when I first took one his classes. I didn't like accounting at first and don't like dealing with many numbers. Then I took a class from him and that changed my perspective about accounting. I learned to love it, and it's because of him. He is very caring and respectful. He simplifies topics that are complicated to deal with.

He was the best Accounting professor ever! Because of him, I chose to become an Accounting Major. He is a fun, caring, and friendly teacher who gives amazing lectures. He is full of energy and passion! He uses extra time to teach us and helps us when we need him. He was the best choice and I highly recommend all of his class.

Brother Waite is the man! He is seriously so kind and funny- he cares about his students so much. I have absolutely no desire to start a business, but this class was easy and fun- I felt like I learned a lot without having to do a lot of work. Whatever your major, take a class from Brother Waite because he is the coolest ever.

I'm a health major this class was challenging for me. However, David teaches in a way that is clear and easy to understand. He cares about his students and really connects with them. Practice outside of class often and you will pass the class. At the end of semester you might not enjoy the subject but you'll enjoy having David teach you.
