The instruction is very confuse because sometimes he asks you to do problem 1 and 3. if you put problem 2, you answer is wrong. If your answer is wrong, you won't have any credit on that assignment. you have to follow what he asks for. I follow his instructions to finish all the works, I end up with a C grade. watch out! guys. (confusion)

Professor Claire is a well-spoken teacher who makes sure that the student is well aware of the different problems and topics in each specific lecture. I took him for a night class and it is highly recommended that you stay for the entire class time and not cut out when the break is given. Claire will always make sure the student is taken care of.

It's great that he opens up all the assignments for you to submit at any given time. He still has an ultimate deadline for each of them but at least you have ample time to finish the course before you have vacation plans. This course might be challenging to those that are not tech savvy but the professor has provided great guidance.

I took Professor Claire again after taking his ACTG144, Excel I. Just like Excel I, his Excel II class (ACTG145) was great. He provides feedback to almost all assignment submissions. As long as you read the text and understand it, the assignments are very straight forward. I highly recommend taking him for both Excel I and Excel II.

Professor Claire is an awesome professor. If you do not know any thing about accounting, take with him. He has his own clear modules which I loved it. He did not give you any home work for grade but if you do not do the homework, the exams are pretty much hard. He understands if you do not get it. He answers emails and help you any time.
