Good professor. He made the class as easy as possible. Much of the material was very dry; however, I find accounting to be a dry subject. The tests are difficult, you definitely need to study. If you do well on the homework, you should do well in the class. Try to do the homework yourself though, because he gives all the answers during class.

REALLY stretches out the entire lecture. Talent as a professor shows during in person meetings. Where the experience really falls short is in the homework. Day 1, said will not help w/HW, BUT should pay more attention to catching the MANY errors in the Wiley Plus HW. Most multiple choice are computational questions, yet only allows 2 attempts. ��

Taking this class means you'll be teaching yourself after watching his lecture notes and then proceeding to the homework to where only 70% of the lectures apply and you have to figure the rest out through google. Homework can take up to hours and then he gives more assignments on top of it. NOT a good class. NOT a good professor.

TAKE HIS HYBRID CLASS He has been one of the best profs I have taken. His canvas is clearly laid out and set up for student to succeed. Lectures are prerecorded on YouTube so you can do it at your own pace during the week wouldve gotten an A if I did the HW on time You have to study though &take it seriously. pleased with his teaching technique

Professor Maxwell's videos are the best there is, the only reason you'd fail is that you didn't study or business is just not for you. I am a gamer so the youtube videos he has are just beyond words amazing. It's like being able to rewind him, in case it didn't register right away. Just watch the videos and you'll pass the exams.

Maxwell is a thorough teacher who goes over everything. Lectures are prerecorded & can be long at times. In class he reviews material/homework & answers questions, no camera. Lots of homework, but it helps you learn. Wiley textbook used. Class requires lots of time for studying & learning the material. Be prepared to put in some work, lectures good

Amazing Professor. I was worried about how difficult Accounting 2 would be for me, but Professor Maxwell was amazing. Clear grader, you won't ever question what you have in the class. If you do the homework, the exam is very similar. He doesn't overload and is very caring. You won't regret taking this class. 4 Exams total which is pretty great.

Really chill and understanding professor. Beware that you have to subscribe to wileyplus for his bus201-202 classes which costs around $140 and I ended up changing my major anyways. His hybrid class lectures were somewhat boring since you could almost always self-teach yourself once you learn the basics of the subject. Exams had no trick questions.

Took hybrid. Great person and professor with solid lectures. Lots of work though, you will spend hours on homework on WileyPlus. The tests are very hard too. The notes and worksheets he gives you in class, KEEP THEM, you will fail the tests without them. Had to go to the TLC a ton, but hey I maintained an A so use those resources.

Prof Maxwell posts lectures ahead of time so you can watch them at your own pace. His lectures are thorough and make learning easier than trying to read the book. He gives a few opportunities to do extra credit. Do the EC! If you do the work you can get an A.

This Professor is by far the best Prof Ive had in my two years at COC, he gives you a large amount of wiley plus work to do but it is definitely manageable. The way assignments are set up makes his class very simple and straightforward when taking online. Would def recommend him to all students that are going to take accounting 202.

Does a great job during his lectures. Would have been a 5 if not for the weekly "continuing waterways" problems. These were genuinely more difficult than anything he ever gave on a test and they are extremely time consuming.

Professor Maxwell is a great professor and super understanding and caring. He keeps his lectures interesting with activities and has a good sense of humor. There can be a quite a bit of busy work but it really prepares you for the tests. Overall just a great guy and would love to take one of his classes again.
