this is the worst professor ever

TAX2000 - 1.0 rating

Show up to all classes, she has a heavy accent so befriend some classmates to help you, she follows the syllabus (no surprises), do all the tests, do the 20 tax returns and 55 hours, she will bring food (food, sweets, & coffee), its a fun and learning experience for beginners, & final is open book (but its timed)

Professor Burrows is an easy going person. Those who said she rushed through the material is becasue they took Accounting class in summer and expecting a step-by-step pace when she has to finish the whole course in 6 weeks. Please get real, people. She might not be the dream professor you wish to have but she is fair enough comparing with others.

If you're serious about accounting, choose another professor. She, in my opinion, is a nice lady, however, is not the greatest teacher. The tests include some things she doesnt even tell you be on, and the homework is simply repetitive. My point: choose another accounting teacher

She is a good teacher. The students who complained either couldn't get accounting or are horrible students overall. Just look at their descriptions where they couldn't even articulate what they were trying to say in proper english. Go figure. If you want someone who cares about her students, who is helpful and clear, you need to take her course.

A very demanding class. She does review, but if you are not up to date you will fall behind. She has a very heavy oriental accent so unless you have a personal translator don't bother. There are only three exams, but they cover 6 or 7 chapters worth of material. I would not recommend this teacher.

Professor Burrows is very knowledgeable in her field. She loves to teach and it shows. While she will not spoon feed you the information she is always available to answer questions and goes over the material in class and has you do classwork to make sure you understand the material. Her tests are fair you need to read and do homework to pass.

Professor Burrows is an excellent professor. The detriment to the class is students (like the one below)who don't read the material, and expect to be "learned some accounting" with minimal effort on their part. She has office hours where students can get additional help, if required, and never hesitates to go the extra mile for her students.

Very good class to learn about all most important forms and taxes returns to present and file even though it is impossible to learn about taxes in 1 class. In fact, it takes years to learn them well but take it seriously,be organized and review all material as soon as you learn and you will be just fine.

Accounting is already a tough subject, so you need a professor who teaches it practical. Attendance is mandatory. Professor has a strong accent, gets upset when you ask questions and does not show examples. your whole grade is based off the midterm and final so if you're not a good test taker, dont bother. Don't be fooled by good ratings like me.

Don't be fooled by the bad ratings of students who are lazy and don't want to put in time to do well in class. Professor Burrows is great! She gives a good amount of extra credit which is something she definitely does not have to do. Using her accent as an excuse for your failure is ridiculous.

Lots of group projects and reading. Cengage platform is tricky for writing assignments. unstuck ai helped me stay organized and on track with the workload. Overall a decent class, but be prepared for the grading rigor.
