Teaches Accounting Principals and Peachtree Accounting. Very good teacher, explains the material well, been teaching a long time, cares about students.
Awesome teacher. Morally sound and knows his stuff. Take him, he is so easy- ask for help if you ever get confused. I made an A, and on a follow up quiz in acct2- I remembered all of the sayings he taught and got a 92.
Very excellent professor. He is very clear and always prepared and just a very professional man. He is also very helpful and giving of his time. He is also very inspirational and gives a lot of advice and tips about life. You have to take his classes i
Very helpful. Explains fully, fun. One of the best teachers I have ever had. I took it in summer and worried that the homework would be to much for summer, but it was great and I made an A.Made having to be there 4 nights a week easy and fun.
He is a great teacher. I really enjoyed his class. He is very nice and very helpfull. Everyone else who wrote about him pretty much sumed him up for me! I defentaly recemend him.
Very intelligent man. Subject is very challenging but his knowledge of it & his method of teaching makes it understandable. If you really study & do the homework, there is no reason not to do well because he teaches very well. He is also funny!
the first test is hard... this is 10 min after taking it, before the grades come back, GREAT TEACHER - Jeff Jackson
Best instructor to take for ACCT. Gives great review sheets. Took him in the summer and was happy i did. Got an A in the course. Homework load was feasible. Highly recommend him!
Dr. Jackson is an amazing teacher! One of my favorites. He has fill in the blank outlines. He only assigns homework over what you need to know for the test. He gives a study sheet for the test. So far we have had 2 tests and I have made a 100 on both! Easy class if u pay attention!
Dr. Jackson is so funny! He is a great teacher and he rarely gives any homework. I hightly recommend this teacher. Go Ravens!
I was very interested in accounting before I took this class. It's not the class but it's the teacher that made me hate accounting. He's a terrible teacher and treats his classes like they're in high school.
Dr Jackson is a great teacher. He takes the time to axplain everything he teaches clearly and the outlines are great to use as study tools. I highly recommend him.
Dr. Jackson is very helpful. I had never taken an acoounting class before, but if you just attend class and do the homework, you should not have any trouble making a high grade. He goes over the information very well before assigning work for you to do. Highly recommended.
Great Professor! Very organized and so helpful. Don't take class @ beginning of day because he takes points off final grade if you are late more than 2 times. Test over exactly what was covered. Very knowledgable. Will take again
He is an awesome teacher! He gives outlines, reviews, extra credit and tells you what's going to be on the test. I would definitely recommend his classes.
great teacher! highly recommend!
He is really fair and knowledgeable. He will take the extra time to make sure you understand everything. I recommend him if you have to take additional acct. courses.
I don't know what your talking about. This man is one of the best teachers I've ever had. Maybe mr. 8/1/05 flunked out of his class because he didnt study. No one listen to comment 8/1/05. It's an awesome class and an even greater teacher!!! :)
He is somewhat picky as to how he wants his class run. Its better to just follow the rules and go with it. He doesn't like being interrupted during lectures, but will answer important questions. Overall, he is fair, tests covered the materal discussed in class. Not a favorite, but I would take him again.
Awesome Teacher!
I would not recommend him to anyone. He doesn't teach, he spews information. He seems to have the attitude that if you get it great if you don't it's your problem. If you ask a question he doesn't want to spend too much time answering it or trying to explain concepts. He acts, and dresses, like he's at an ivy league school, or would like to be.
Great guy. Just take notes and memo. formulas and you will pass. His test come right out from the test reviews. Study the reviews and make an A. But dont be late to class,he hates it.
he is a nice guy and all, great for guidance on the path to become an accounting or business major, but you either get it or you don't when it comes to his lectures.
Awesome teacher. He is very clear about what you need to know in order to do well on the exams. He made me enjoy accounting: a subject that I always thought would be extremely boring.
very good teacher, I enjoyed his class. Made accounting fun, class was very challenging. Dr. Jackson helps his students out a lot. His class is no breeze, but will do everything to help you understand, when don't. I made a "B" in the class, if it wasn't for him being such a good teacher. I would have made a lot lower.
Overall he sucks, he teaches okay providing notes on BB and if you go along with it and study them you may do okay on the tests, but sometimes he adds stuff that was not on the notes.If you have problem making it to class on time or just making it to class in general then this class is not for you.You will lose alot of points for tardies absences.
Very intelligent and interesting. He will help you to understand the lesson by any way. His test is cover all the materials in class. But he is strict.
Great teacher. Very informative and makes materials easy to understand. Not the easiest subject, but if you're a good student you will do well. Attend every class. Book is almost not needed, tests directly from lecure/notes. One of San Jac's best assets.
Go to every class and do NOT be late, if you can help it. He's very good and very knowledgeable and wants his students to do well, but he sometimes talks over your head. But if you study, you will learn everything you need to learn in Acct 1 & 2. Overall very good.
Great teacher, and would strongly recommend. The information is a lot to take in, and is pretty confusing, but he does his best to explain it. Also, he gives subtle hints about what you really need to know for the test, so be aware. Don't be late, and DON'T MISS, or you will get left behind. Funny guy too!

He is very systematic and clear of what is expected out of you in the course.
One of the best and most influential teachers I've ever had. Very clear on material and expectations. Teaches from an outline that you get from Blackboard. Offers a comprehensive exam after final to replace lowest test grade. Checks 5 homeworks (for completion) and drops the lowest. Gives 3 extra credit assignments. Do NOT miss class.
Very good teacher! He prepares you well for each test and his outlines are very useful. As long as you show up every day and do your homework, you can easily make an A. Great teacher!
A wonderful teacher with a great teaching style. If you complete the homework, and attend class there is no reason for less than an A. I truly learned a great deal from his class and hope that future accounting teachers teach like him
HE IS AWESOME TAKE HIM!!!!! YOU WILL PASS IF YOU GO TO CLASS DO THE HOMEWORK AND THE EXTRA CREDITS. HE KNOWS HIS STUFF AND IS THERE TO HELP YOU IF YOU NEED HIM.
He is an awesome professor. I highly recomend his class. I took Acct 2301.301 and will take the second class with him. Love his teaching style. A+
3 tests 1 final plus hmwk and 15 possible points of x-tra credit; he's really easy to follow on notes that you print out and gives a review before each test. must take
Dr. Jackson is a very knowledgeable man and has an excellent way to passing that information to his students. He cares a lot about his students and loves to offer advice for real world job applications. Very good instructor!
The easiest ACCT professor in the history of ACCT. Some of these ratings are a joke, this guy is anything but difficult in the way he teaches. How dumb do you have to be to not be able to pass this course, when the guy gives you a review a week before the test? Grow up and learn to memorize basic accounting concepts. Or just be an english major.
He has a great personality, makes the class fun (best that you can do with accounting) Will help if you have questions or concerns. Helpful with giving reviews for tests. FOLLOW THE REVIEWS !!!!!! He is a must take for accounting, the others I have taken there at SJC are the usual accountant type, slow, boring, and to the point.
Mr. Jackson is the best teacher i have ever had!!! he is soo nice and helpful and wants all of his students to do well. You should go to class and do the homework and the tests are exactly like the reviews!! Im an A/B student and i have a 100 average in his class. GREAT TEACHER! you MUST take him if at all possible.. everyone in the class loved him
Good Teacher, Great enviroment, and awesome ability to keep the class interested and motivated. Best teacher in Acct, hands down. Ive had 2 professors at San Jac North, they are horrible, not only do you not learn anything, but they as well are confused. Ex: I asked a question pertaining to the STMT of R.E, I got "I just teach it, i dont know it"
Great Teacher. WE NEED MORE TEACHERS LIKE HIM!!! Someone who likes to teach instead of seeing it just as a sigh* "Job". As long as you study the outlines and the study guide/do your homework. Its a guaranteed A+
He is a caring, compassionate person who will help a student at any time with accounting problems. His teaching techniques are remarkable, and I thoroughly enjoyed his class, after hearing horror stories about accounting classes in general. I only wish that I were required to take a few more classes with this professor. He also is very funny.
HE CARES IF YOU CARE. TRIES TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND. I REALLY LIKED THE WAY HE TAUGHT. HE ACTUALLY HELPS YOU. HE'S INTO GOD, SO MAYBE THATS WHY HE'S A GOOD GUY. GOOD HEART.
Great guy and tries to help you if you will accept his help! If you have to take an acconting class he is the guy to choose hands down.
One of the best teachers in my opinion at san jac. He cares about your grades and is always there to help out as long as you put effort. The class isn't hard at all, but it will take effort to pass it with a good grade. Attendance and doing homework is a must if you want to make an A in his class. Definately a good recommendation for Accounting..
Mr. Jackson is one of the best professors at San Jac. He is crystal clear in lecture and you can only fail his class if you don't try. He gives you every opportunity to pass, and he truly wants to see you pass. Take him for accounting for sure.
Straight forward teacher with great handouts. Do the homework and then some for an A.
Excellent professor! I had no interest in accounting before Jackson, now I am an aspiring accounting major. Gives great reviews. Makes sure you understand the material. Do your homework and you will pass easily. Discusses career options and tries to help you plan for the future. Great guy! Taking him again for 2302.
Much better teacher than my ACCT I. Subject was ok but lots of homework. You need to make it to every class and study hard. You will make a decent grade
Has a knack for teaching Accounting. Take him.
Mr. Jackson is a really good teacher. He really, really knows his stuff and is very helpful. This isn't a fluff class; you will have to work for your grade. But he is very helpful every step of the way. Interesting lectures, great handouts. Take him!
Great Professor! Give you outlines for the notes and reviews for the exams. As long as you attend the classes and do the homework. YOU WILL MAKE AN A. He know what he is talking about and uses examples we will remember. I am taking him for Acct 2302 now.
HE IS AN EXCELLENT PROFESSOR, HE KNOWS HIS STUFF. I HATED ACCT., BUT I HAD NO CHOICE TO TAKE THIS FOR MY BUSINESS DEGREE, THE FIRS TIME I TOOK THIS COURSE I HAD TO DROP IT I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THE OTHER PROFESSOR, I CANNOT BELIEVE THE BAD COMMENTS I READ, THOSE PEOPLE OBVIOUSLY JUST WANT GRADES HANDED TO THEM, I PASSED HIS CLASS WITH A B.
Dr. Jackson has been a pleasure to take a difficult class with. I say difficult because the subject is difficult-not the teacher. He gives you every resource available to do well. I had to study, read only parts of the book because his notes are awesome, and go to tutoring-no way around it as accounting didn't come natural to me. Take him!!
My comment from 2301 was killed for some reason. Just took him for 2302 and loved it also. Dr. Jackson goes beyond just teaching accounting, and provides tons of info on getting ahead in life as well. Plenty of experience to draw from, his stories are helpful and entertaining. Great sense of humor as well. Take him! You won't regret it.
I took Professor Jackson for Acct 2302 Spring 2010 and all i can say is WOW!! He is so interesting and very knowledgeable. Loved the way he made this "hard" class so easy and fun. Gives us so much advice for future. gives outlines and his test are exactly that so no surprises as long as you do outlines and homework. MUST take professor hes AWESOME
Dr. Jackson ROCKED. I took Acct Principles I and signed up early to have him for principles II. I work during the day, but even if I was so tired I couldn't see straight, I still looked forward to his class.
Didnot do that well but I passed. There is alot of reading and homework to do. Expects alot out of you but is very helpful and gives you opportunities to bring up your grade. He also provides you with real life examples and gives you dave ramsey to read for an xtra 10 points on exams.
Jackson is an AMAZING professor! I really wish I could take him for more classes. He taught from an outline with fill in the blanks. Gave great examples and clear reviews. No surprises on the exams. I made an A and I feel it was easy, but I never missed class and did all homework. He cares for his students!!
he's very helful, teaches out of outlines and real life examples, its a very hard subject but he helps you alot, also he cares about his students, at the end of the semester he teaches you life leassons and what you need to succeed in life.
Very clear and helpful. Willing to help you or find someone who can. Gives little life lessons along the way. 4 tests and a homework grade based off completion. Teaches off an outline he puts together. Would take him again for any future accounting courses!
Dr. Jackson was such a great professor! He was very clear in what you needed to accomplish in order to excel in his class, and when I'd missed a class, he gave me a photocopy of what they worked on without me. The homework is a must because if you don't do the homework, you won't understand a lot of what you'll be tested on. All in all, he's fair.
Dr. Jackson is my favorite prof I've had since I started college! Acct is challenging,I was two points from a B but that's expected for that class. His reviews were very helpful for the tests. Hw is a MUST or you will be so lost! He was also helpful outside the classroom, when I questioned changing my major to accounting. Definitely an awesome guy.
Dr. Jackson is in the top 5 teachers I have even taken a class from. He cares about the lifetime success of his students and integrates wisdom that comes through experience in each class. The accounting side is made understandable with use of outlines and examples. There is no way to get a bad grade in this class if you pay attention.
Dr Jackson is a great teacher he knows is material. He teaches in a way students understand. I respect his professionalism. Lots of hw, but great practice for test! Also gives a great reviews before test
If you attend class, pay attention and study to the review- you should get an A. The hardest part is the homework, but it helps you understand and is graded on completion, then you go over it together. He'd be my professor of choice any day!
Professor Jackson is an amazing teacher he is funny and is very helpful with anything you ask him. I would recommend him for everything. I only have one more class I can take with him. I wish I could take the rest of my accounting classes with him it would make the rest of my degree much more easier to get.
Great teacher. He provides all the notes for you and goes over them slowley. Does examples in class very similar to homework, VERY helpful. Provides reviews for all exams. Extra credit on every test. Drops lowest homework grade and optional exam to replace lowest test grade. No surpises in this class, follows sylubus to a T. Great teacher!
Took as a hybrid class. I would recommend it taking it as an online only class. Keep up with the projects.
Dr. Jackson is the BEST teacher to have! I have taken both ACCT 1303 and 1304 with him. Notes are to be printed then fill in blank during class. (Must print notes)Homewok every week but a MUST in Accounting. Test are hard but you learn the material. Jackson is a great professor and helps you with anything you have questions about even transfer ?s
Dr. Jackson is great! Online homework is due everyweek, and he gives helpful examples that help figure out the homework. The book is a must, and printing out your notes is a must! He made this class pretty easy.
Dr. Jackson is a great professor! He is very helpful. I wouldn't recommend skipping his class. He gives you outlines that make his class easier; make sure you print them, they are a MUST. The homework is due every week. Tests are easy if you actually pay attention and his reviews are great! You won't regret taking his class.
Dr. Jackson is by far one of the best professors I've had so far. He is extremely clear and honest with his students. You will leave this class with a good understanding of accounting and the business world as a whole. Highly recommended.
Great teacher! Gives handouts and goes threw the material, just have to fill in the blanks, Bring the Book!! Does examples from the book that help with the online Cengage HW which gives you 2 tries on each. 10pts on 3 test's from reading the Total Money Makeover-easy pts. If you don't go to class you will miss information from the handouts.
This class is very time consuming. You either understand the material or you do not. Great teacher, but very hard subject.
One of the best professors I have ever had. Very knowledgeable, knows the subject and most importantly knows how to explain it in simple terms. Look no further, this professor is the real deal! Highly recommended!
One of the few professors or staff at San Jacinto that knows what they are doing. Dr. Jackson takes his class very seriously and you should too. He covers the material very well and is very easy to follow because his class is EXTREMELY structured. He has this down to a science but keeps it interesting. Show up every day and pay attention.
Great Professor!!! Lecture are easy to understand. Grades depend on 4 test and cengage hw grades combine together as a test grade (1 hw each week going over the material learned). His test are exactly over the review that he gives before.. As long as you understand the problems in the homework and do the review the test should be similar.
Dr. Jackson has to be one of my favorite professor's at San Jac his class is very structured. His reviews help a lot for the exam no surprises, a total of 4 Exams and then there was a lot of homework but it was a 5 week course, overall if you study and make an effort, its not an easy A but its worth it! I would take him again! :)
Dr. Jackson is hands down the best prof. I have ever had. He genuinely cares about his students and wants them to succeed. No surprises. Very Clear. Homework is reasonable. Business oriented so no exceptions on deadlines. No extra credit. He will drop a homework and offers a cumulative final makeup exam.
Dr. Jackson is a great professor who really wants you to succeed. His lectures and class is very organized and is very easy to understand. He makes accounting so easy and able for anyone to understand. He breaks things down really easily and tests you on everything from his reviews and book. A solid professor who knows what he's doing.
Great professor, one of the best I've encountered. His class is super structures, he provides fill-in-the-blank notes and provides a review of everything you need to review for tests. Very nice guy, humble, cares a lot about his students. Wish every professor was like him - I'll definitely be taking him next semester. I've got an A so far.
He is a very organized and structured professor. I spent forever on reviews and homework assignments. If you have a short attention span, or are bad with numbers, tutoring is highly recommended (although I did not ever have time for tutoring... I wish I did).
Accounting was a very tough subject for me. Prof Jackson explains the material in a fun way that helps you understand. Tests are mostly multiple choice and there are plenty of "gimme" questions. He was extremely nice and helpful, wish I could have taken him for accounting 1
I took Dr. Jacksons Accounting Class my first semester of college, and I was unsure if Id like business at all, but he managed to make the subject interesting to me and his teaching style helped me learn a lot about what I wanted to do for a career, and now Im confidently pursueing a Finance degree. One of my favorite professors.
Great Professor! Very caring and provides reviews and checklists for your work. Always writes back through email, respectful and answers questions. Sends weekly emails with reminders and also gives great feedback. Definitely recommend.
Dr. Jackson was amazing! Hes lectures are what you would expect on the test. There is a lot of homework but very easy to do and helps to understand better. The reviews are almost exactly whats on the test, he makes sure of that. Hes very organized the calendar is exactly what you will be doing. Very nice and respectful guy.
Took this course for Computerized Accounting with Professor Jackson. Let me just say If you want to get an A, go find another professor who is rigged. This man grades so though, unless you're a full pledged accountant already it's almost impossible to get an A on this course. If you care about your GPA Avoid this class at all costs
This professor is very clear in what he needs and when assignments are due. He got back to me very quickly with answers to my various questions. This class is an easy A as long as you do the work. He wants his students to be successful.
Professor Jackson is a very organized professor he lets you know what you need to do in order to pass this class. However, I was not a big fan on how he lectures. I imagine he forgets he is speaking to (students) not (Accountants). I felt lost all the time and the only thing that was helping me was memorizing. I would not recommend him.
Dr. Jackson is very specific about when and what is due. He is helpful via email, Zoom, etc. if needed, not only for the class but as an advisor as well. I suggest taking this and your first accounting course, if applicable, at the same time. Like most courses, if you read carefully and do the work, you'll do well.
What you put in to this class is what you get out of it. You can not slack or get behind in this class or you will fail! This class is not easy and you really have to study, read, etc. His instructions and due dates are clear. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is because he offers no extra credits however, tutoring (tutortrac) helped me a lot.
Dr. Jackson is an excellent professor, and he does want you to succeed. I loved his lectures and he has a "No-Surprise" policy in his class. What's on the review will be on the test. Weekly assignments, 4 exams, and you need to buy a Dave Ramsey book.
Dr. Jackson is an amazing Professor. His due dates are very clear and strict on, but we are not kindergarteners are we. He was always quick to respond to emails, offers tutoring if needed, and Dave Ramsey book is a must.
The reading is alot , so be prepared to take notes. Make sure to do practice question it will help you alot. The homework is pretty easy. The test were very hard 3 exams and 1 final. so make sure to study. I am taking him for two more classes
Dr. Jackson is a great professor! Homework is due every week, they are very easy. We had 3 exams and a final, the final is not cumulative. He really recommends reading the textbook which is very helpful but I did not read it, it just depends on how you learn. Have to buy a Dave Ramsey book. Lessons are super helpful so don't miss them. AND STUDY!!!
One of the greatest Professors I have had in the time I've gone to San Jac. Even though I bombed the final, I would take him again. If you need help for any of his classes, there are several ways to get help. He is always available and gives you all the information you need to know to pass this course.
Study the accounting textbook very well and you'll do fine. Dr.Smellfungus's lectures are great!
He was a great professor, syllabus matches perfectly. One homework due each week and given a week to do it. Test reviews match the test and didn't have to read the book, he taught very well for me not to have to get a lot of information from the book itself. I would advise showing up to class, as he lectures every class.
He gave us one chapter of homework each week. Does no surprises for tests covering the same stuff in class, in our notes, and on the review. Gives great advice on how to make a good resume and stand out when applying for jobs. He's not big on email, but he'll provide a tutor if you need extra help. Lecture heavy and gets everything from book.
Great professor! I recommend taking him for any accounting class. He made it very easy to understand. He also encourages group work which I think is refreshing. I'm a bit sad that next semester will be his last teaching :(. Overall, very caring and I would 100% tell my friends to take him.
Professor Jackson's lectures can be dry, but he provides a clear roadmap to succeed. The textbook and weekly assignments are key. Try using Unstuck AI along with other study tools to prepare. Overall, a solid class.
One of the best Professors I have ever had. I did take the online class and all of the material for the accounting class was very thorough and helpful. Take him!
Best accounting professor. I enjoyed going to his class and hearing his lectures. His class was very refreshing.
