Prides himself on having highest drop/fail rate on campus. Teaches by the Socratic method which is not at all helpful when teaching accounting. One multiple choice question can fail you. Reason I switched majors.

Pretty good professor, casual relationship w students and has amusing stories. Isnt very strict on attendance but def go to class because he puts things exactly the way they will be on the test. No hw. Multiple choice tests that come mostly from lecture with a few questions from the book.. tests can get tricky but he helps out w curves/extra credit

He was a great professor. His class is no gimme. You do have to work, and it is important to go to class, as alot of important info is given (of course). I never found him to be spiteful. Rules oriented...yes. Very approachable and easy to get along with!

He is hands down the best professor I've ever had. Take him if you are an accounting major. If you just need ACCT 203/204 for your business major I would not take him. He would probably expect too much in a entry level class.

Great Accounting Professor! If he is teaching a course you need to take, make sure to sit in his class! He is caring and understanding and he is focused on the lecture and the students. He isn't distracted or reliant on powerpoint. He has a powerful background in accounting so if you have any questions, he's able to answer them right then. A++!

Please DO NOT take this class online. I took it asynchronous and it has been awful. He posts videos with just examples and does not explain the materials at all. The examples differ from the quizzes and do not help at all. I went to his office hours to try and get help and all he did was talk down on me and did not answer any the of the questions.

Dr. Daniels' asynchronous online ACCT 203 course was the best course of the semester for me. His videos are excellent and include everything that you need to know to do well on the quizzes. He held office hours on Zoom and was extremely helpful. He is one of the most organized professors that I have encountered.

Professor Daniels is passionate about what he is teaching and is very helpful and quick to get back if you have any questions. You are graded on a weekly quiz and weekly homework assignment. The quiz is on lockdown and camera is on. He drops one quiz grade and another one if you complete 85% of all homework assignments.

This class was super difficult. It was asynchronous and online but there was no organization. Professor was not flexible with time conflicts, gave short few-hour windows for testing periods, and didn't provide lectures only example problem-solving videos. I wouldn't recommend an online class with him.

Dr. Daniels is very organized. His video lectures are excellent. Many of the lectures are in context of the problems that he works in the videos intended to prepare us for the weekly quizzes. He is always helpful and highly recommended.

Professor Daniels was always helpful during office hours both in person and on Zoom. He answers emails promptly. His videos are excellent but you have to do the homework and not just merely listen to them. The videos are just like being in a live lecture. The course is difficult and the asynchronous mode is not for everyone.

I had taken this course two other times and failed once and withdrew the other. Professor Daniels's videos and extremely organized course were amazing compared to my other experiences. I met with him on his Zoom office hours and dropped by his in-person office hours and he was always kind and willing to help me.

Taking accounting online was already a bad idea for me, but RD doesn't help. His videos reflect the quizzes and hw, however his quizzes are a bit confusing to understand. Also all quizzes are lockdown browser w/ camera. Met w/ him for office hours and he's just kinda aggressive. Look for another prof, but you'll survive if you have to take it.

While a very nice man, the class itself is a bit unorganized, the videos were helpful but not always accurate to the weekly quizzes. You are not graded on the homework even though it is very time-consuming and the extra grade boost would definitely help if you are not a strong test-taker. He was helpful during office hours when I have visited him.

Dr. Daniels is the best professor that I have taken. He is extremely intelligent and his vast knowledge of accounting is unbelievable. His course is organized and he has an engaging personality. He is an honest grader who expects students to work hard and learn the material. I never found him to be aggressive or condescending.

Professor Daniels runs a challenging but rewarding course. The weekly quizzes and homework require dedication, but his organized video lectures and availability for support make it manageable. Unstuckstudy was a great study aid alongside the textbook. Overall, a worthwhile class for motivated students.

Professor is pretty strict and the course is super difficult. Luckily there's no final, the grade is just based off 12 quizzes, but they take at least 6 hours a week of studying by yourself to learn. I would recommend this course for Sophomores and up. I took it my first semester & might be put on academic probation bc I had trouble adjusting.

He is a very nice man who helped me a lot when I went to his office hours. His videos are helpful, and he is knowledgeable about the subject. The complaints about him on this website are likely those he caught cheating and failed them in the course. I heard he had students suspended from the College for cheating on the exams. Great course!

This class was good for an online accounting course. The assignments consisted of only 12 quizzes that use lockdown browser + camera. There were lecture videos provided that helped more with the homework, which is not graded, compared to the actual quizzes. However, if you do the homework, you can get an extra quiz grade dropped.
