No what everybody is saying she is the best accounting teacher i had.Her office hours are by appointments. She is always there I went quite few times as I needed so much help. She is extremely helpful. She helped in reveiwing entire chapter in her office as I missed two classes. Her handouts are excellent. The best teacher ever....
this is probably the worst teacher i have ever had before. her accent is the worst part of her teaching. all she does is reading over power points that she has out online so it leaves no point to come to the class. also she doesn't know how to explain the material. don't take her.
OMG THIS IS THE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH: SHE IS EASY IN TERMS OF THE CLASS HW, AND ASSIGNMENTS, U CAN DO EVERYTHING ONLINE, BUT HER ACCENT IS REALLY HARD TO UNDERSTAND, SHE DOESNT REALLY GO OVER THE MATERIAL SHE USES POWERPOINTS, SHE DOES LET YOU USE THE BOOK FOR QUIZES AND EXAMS.. DOES NOT HELP THOUGH.... I SUGGEST GET SOMEONE THAT CAN TEA
I had her for Acc 212. She is one of the best accounting teachers. She does lots of examples in class and for me that is the best way of learning accounting then reading ton of theory. She is always there for her office hours. She is very flexible and understanding. If you really want to learn accounting then I highly recommend her.
Professor Panchal is the BEST Accounting professor ever. I started liking accounting after taking her class. I am infact thinking of becoming an accountant. She knows the stuff very well and does a great job of explaining to the class. Very flexible, helpful and caring prof. Pay attention in class and do you homework you will be fine
I had this professor for both ACC 211 and 212. Don't listen to anyone on this site who says she's hard to understand, because you must be literally the dumbest person in the world if you can't understand her. She's well-dressed, professional, and knows her stuff. Take home exams, easy but tedious to do online homework, and great personal stories ha
Took her class for the summer and she is an awesome teacher. I am glad that I took her class. Hopefully, I can take ACC 212 with her in the fall.
Great teacher. Took her summer class, easy to understand, don't believe the hype. Come to class and you can't not do well
EASIEST TEACHER EVER!! If you want an easy A, go ahead and sign up!
She is a very good teacher and a very intelligent person. She is also understanding and cares about the students. Professional and well dressed. Interesting person and a free thinker. All around GREAT.
Professor Panchal is an amazing teacher. One can tell of her great understanding of the subject and she really cares about her students. Class was very easy; the first test was in class but after that we had three take-homes--easy A because of the take-homes, homework, and extra credit given in class.. Take her to learn a lot and get an easy A!
Had her for 211 and 212. she goes over exactly what is on the quizes and finals. HW is posted in a timely fashion. if you are not getting an A or B in her class, you're not trying. She is willing to bend over backwards to help you. In class work and assigned HW prepare you for the quizes and exams.
Extremely competent, very clear explanations, fair, well paced, what more can you ask for from a teacher?If you need to take ACC, take it with her!
4 exams take home(Drop the lowest one)HW is online. Final is in class (open book).150pts for 3 exams+100pts for HW+100pts for final=Total:350pts Attendance is not mandatory.She is nice. I got an A
SHE'S REALLY GOOD. DOES SOME TAKE HOME TESTS AND ALL OF HER EXAMS ARE OPEN BOOK. SHE DOESN'T GIVE A LOT OF HW EITHER. SHE'S REALLY NICE.BUT IT'S UPTO YOU TO WORK HARD AND GET THE GRADE YOU WANT.PUT TIME INTO IT AND YOU WILL DEF. SEE THE RESULTS.
Prof Panchal's 8-wk course was fast paced & had to really work my A. Altho, it's not mandatory, attend her lectures, U will learn so much more if U do. Explains problems on the board, reinforces her teaching by having us practice, practice, practice, both in class & for HW(counts ~30% of grade). Best accounting teacher! Wish she was teaching ACC221
Super easy! Prof. Panchal really knows her stuff. All of the tests are take-home and the homework is online. The class is low maintenance and super manageable.
Good, but not great professor. She is sometimes hard to understand, but she has a good working knowledge of accounting. Assigns mostly take home quizzes (with the exception of one or two) and most homework is done and submitted online. I would recommend this class
Lots easier than my other accounting professor.
Professor Panchal takes a complex subject and presents it in a way that makes the material easy to understand. She does have a bit of an accent, but will clarify if you ask. Lots of homework, but easy to do if you attend regularly.
THE GREATEST ACCUNTING TEACHER AT NOVA EVERYTHING TAKE HOME4 EXAMS and HW take home, FINAL online on BB. IF YOU WANT an A take her plain and simple !!!
Professor Panchal is the best! 4 Tests and drops the lowest grade. She also gives some homework for each chapter that is due online at the end of the semester. She put our Final on BB. Attendance is not mandatory but if you attend, the tests will be easier than if you did not attend. I got an A in her class and I didn't attend the second half.
she is very easy since all the exams are take home and all the homeworks are online due to end of the semester. BUT she is very rude! dont talk to her if you dont wanna be stressed
One of the best accounting teacher one can have. She knows accounting so well and makes the most complex topic so easy to understand. She helped in my intermediate accounting though she was not teaching and she explained two chapters so well that my current intermediate accounting teacher could not do. Attend the class do your work and get an A.
EASSYY. This class is set up for success because everything is take home. I feel bad for any student who doesn't take Panchal for accounting because she's perfect. And she's NOT mean at all, I never once felt she needed to change her attitude. Love her!
semester started last Thursday...she is amazing prof...OMG! how well controlled her class! how amazing,simple and smart examples does have!!!! very good and I heard she is good in grade too...I thinks so..she is very smart woman, very clear this...she remind me Ghandi!thanks NOVA for this gift!
Amazing professor and easy A class all exams quizzes and homework is take home
took both 211 & 212 with her. Easy A if you do the homework and take good notes in class. Always willing to explain and help. wish she teaches more than just accounting. DEF TAKE HER.
She's a God. Enough said.
Easy A. Everything's online (HW, 4 Quizzes, 4Tests). Not much extra credit. Her accent's a bit thick, hard to understand her. "In class Practice Problems" are not very helpful. She makes you do at least 4 per class. The practice problems are not similar to the ones she teaches during lecture. But take her if you want easy A.
dont like her, too laid back
Where in the world is professor Panchal? I took her 1st test and while i was testing she sent out extra material and a notice saying she's leaving for a week and a half.. mind u the test was due in 2 days.. and she was just posting practice q's. She's now been gone for 2 weeks w no updates. Feel so bad for people never taken accounting before..
Took two classes with her. Happy with the results. Tests are long but enforce the book and class material (4 tests, 4 quizzes, & homework for every chapter online). I consider her accounting classes as one of the best classes I've had at NOVA. She gives students second chance if the are struggling. Truly genuine person. I highly recommend her.
Prof Panchal, was an awesome Accounting teacher. I enjoyed the whole semester , I never missed her class, great lectures, do your assigned work, read you will definitely come out with an A. Highly recommended...
Excellent for Accounting. will take her class again..
Writes the textbook on the board. Was at least five minutes late to every class. Never posted anything on time.
The best accounting teacher. Zillion times better than my high school accounting teacher.
I took two of her classes. She is amazing teacher and highly recommended. Tests are tough and long (3 tests & homework for every chapter online) but you end up learning accounting as well as the book material. If you do the work, you will be happy with the result. Great class and great person.
My first online class and it was really great. She gave very good exam reviews, answered my questions, flexible approach. Very helpful. I loved it. Great teacher, Highly recommended but you have to work hard too.
Best Best Best Accounting teacher. Attend Class, Do the Homework, really fun class, easy A, She is very helpful and really knows Accounting very well. Loved it. Thanks Prof Panchal
Awesome Accounting Class, Easy...
I took Ms Panchal's online Accounting class. She gives very good notes that help greatly in the exams. I enjoyed the class and highly recommend it.
Great Accounting Prof. Would take her class again. She is good person, to the point and very helpful.
Awesome Prof. The best accounting teacher. Attend class, read book, do homework, easy A
I took her online course and although the class can be sort of difficult, she's there to help you if you email her ask her questions. If you need extra time to work on your homework, she'll give you that time, just don't take advantage of it. Participate, STUDY FOR EXAMS, and turn in your work! Overall, she's a great teacher.
Do not take her! She never replies to email and so hard to reach. The homework is easy but the test are heavy
Do not take her online! The most unreachable and unprofessional teacher
class is hard because of exams. very strict and unhelpful
Awesome teacher! Took her in spring and summer. She explains from basics with clarity. Exams all open book open notes and online, homework and quizzes. Unlimited attempts in homework and quizzes & exams based completely on class work. Chapter notes for each chapter for how to do the problems correctly in one go. Recommend .!!
Not the one to take online. Exams mean everything and she doesnt explain anything at all. If you fail the exam and have A in the class she will give u a F
I took Ms Panchal for online accounting class.I am usually very good when it comes to independent work so this was perfect for me considering my other responsibilities. Email her your questions in time, she quickly responds always within 24-48 hours. Exams are critical. The best accounting teacher. Much better than my high school one.
Do well in exams and you get an EASY A. Quick to respond to email questions. Always there to help.
Awesome prof.. Read, Ask, Work Hard.. You are guaranteed A. I got A in both Acc211 & 212. Prof is very knowledgeable and great teacher. Loved it.
tough grader fail a exam fail the class she will not pass you even if you try your best
Overall awesome experience. Highly recommended.
I took this online class. Great class, clear instruction. Like in any online class be self disciplined and read. If you don't understand then email her. She is very helpful.
I've had better accounting teachers. She isn't clear in her notes and hard to understand online. Choose someone else
Read the book, Do your home work and pass the test. Be self disciplined and reach out to her in time for help, and you are set for an A.
Awesome professor. loved the lectures
Cool Prof. Very good accounting knowledge. She is very helpful and good teacher.
I enjoyed this class last semester. Best accounting class. My advise, read the book, attend the classes and reach out to her in time if any questions. She was very helpful.
IF YOU WANT AN EASY GRADE TAKE HER CLASS. everything is online the homework quiz and exams. i took her for acc 211 and 212. i took it with another professor failed but when i took it with her i passed with an A
Good class
I am currently taking this class. Really great accounting professor. Very knowledgeable and good teacher. Attend the classes and ask questions if you don't understand. She is very helpful. I started loving accounting because of this class.
Yuck! Shes not nice and not willing to help her online students. DO NOT TAKE HER ONLINE IF ITS UR FIRST TIME TAKING ACCOUNTING!!
She is good about answering questions in class. She isn't so great about responding to emails. Be sure to take good notes.
Be prepared to learn on your own. She's very easily drawn off topic in class and obviously doesn't read her students well. If you tell her you don't understand something it's met with a defensive "why not?" Very frustrating semester. The only plus is that all quizzes and exams are taken at home. I don't feel prepared to move on to ACC222.
She can be rather funny but is a difficult teacher. She will teach you the basics and then kind of kick you off the edge and tell you to figure out the harder versions. The homework given is short and an easy A. The tests are rather hard but everything is online and open note.
Interesting lectures. Learned a lot. Easy and clear grading.
Easy class, real good prof and easy "A"...
She has good lectures and explains the concepts in real life accounting situations. I think the notes I took in her class will be useful for my first internship or job
She has made the class so easy for me, except for the exams. Everything that you do in the class is given in the videos, but the exams are extremely tough and you would have to study very hard for them in order get a good grade.
Professor Panchal's class is extremely easy and the exams are online and open note. I feel that she didn't cover all topics though. She gives 5 points for every class you attend. Online homework is a piece of cake. Cool person overall.
As long as you come to class and get online hw done on time, you will pass the class. If you need help with something, go to her office, she will help you. Overall, the class is not stressful if you know what you are doing and she is a pretty cool professor.
She is a very laid back, yet talkative kind of professor. Every lecture starts with her making an attempt to get to know her students but turns out hilariously awkward at times. At least for intro to accounting all of her homework is online and gives you almost a month to get it done. The exams are super easy and online.
Had Panchal for ACC 211. She can get off topic very easily in lectures, and is not the best at putting the problems in perspective. Sometimes it is hard to understand just what exactly we are doing. Assignments are straightforward, exams are either online or open book, and there is a grade bump for perfect attendance. Boring class, but an easy A.
I like this professor and her teaching style. she does not rush you when it comes to handing in assignments. I wish every teacher was like her. she is so helpful and really caring towards her students. she grades quickly and gives good feedback plus extra credit. I took her class online 8 wks and she is the best professor. she is patient & easy.
I enjoyed her class very much. I took her for both ACC 211 and 212. Accounting is very challenging, but she lectures in a way that helps you comprehend the material. She points out what will be on tests, and guides you in a fashion that if you pay attention and take notes you will pass with a good grade. Make sure to do all HW as well.
Despite her lower score on here her class is very easy to pass. Homework, midterm, and finals are all done online. Attendance is taken every class and is graded. She's also lenient about due dates. All in all she is a great professor!
After reading some of the newer reviews, I decided to take prof. Panchal. Her class was easy to pass and she has a clear grading criteria. Each week consisted of textbook reading, practice, then the homework. The quizzes, midterm and final were all taken online. From my experience, she was good with communicating with students. Taking 212 with her!
I took an online Accounting II class with professor Panchal. She kindly helped me one time during the semester. Apart from that time, there was zero video meetings with the class, zero class interaction. I felt lonely during that class and wouldn't take it again.
Professor P is the most elegant gem ever. Even the way she glides across the room when she lectures is interesting. She lectures in a very realistic way which helps you understand and has a love for accounting and she loves $. Take her in person! Homework is so little and tests are take home. TAKE HER. I switched to accounting after this class
I took her for ACC 211 and ACC 212. TAKE HER! She is an easy A. She will go over everything until you get the information. Homework is unlimited and takes the best quiz score out of 3. Attendance matters. Show up and study and you will receive an easy A to bump you GPA. Can't find a better accounting teacher! I'm going for a CPA/Auditor degree.
Professor Panchal is a real gem! and I meant it. Her lectures are awesome; she did a really good job explaining the exercises and problems which really helps for homework and exams. Although she tends to go fast, so you need to keep up and be active in class. Notes are pretty heavy as well, but it's not the worst. 10/10 would recommend for 211+212
Professor Panchal was very clear with letting us know it was an 8-week course which would be a little harder to handle. I believe she made it very accessible for us to gain the knowledge needed by posting lecture notes on canvas. The homework was posted on McgrawHill and graded immediately which was nice to see. Definitely taking her for 212! Great
A great professor for independent students. Offers a little extra credit and is flexible with deadlines as long as you communicate with her. Attendance is required and classes are lecture-heavy but a great person.
Lectures were a tough follow and has a very deep accent. There are homework assignments through "connect" that are due every week but she is lenient on the due dates. Attendance was marked through "qwickly" so easy points by just showing up. She is a professor you want to take if you want to teach yourself everything and want an easy A.
Unorganized, doesnt respond to emails in a timely manner, lectures are anything BUT helpful so be prepared to learn on your own, was 15-20 minutes late to EVERY class or just wouldnt show up without sending out an announcement.
Mrs. Panchal is a very nice professor. She does care about her students a lot. Homework due every week, coordinates with everything learned and will help improve your test grades if done. Her lectures are a little hard to understand and fast paced, however, every single one is recorded, so you can go back and listen. Taking her again in the summer!
Professor Panchal by far is one of my favorite professors. Yes she does have a heavy accent, but me personally I understood and I was fine throughout the semester. There is homework once a week due every Sunday night. It is not hard and if you dont do it, at the end of the semester she will accept lo late HW woth no penalty. She the best. Take her
Me as an average student didnt expect to pass this class with a C. Instead i passed with an A. Shes a real gem if you havent taken her yet. She gives you plenty of time to finish exams and assignments so shouldnt be hard at all. If you have problem understanding and want to speak with her do it immediately and she will really help you make it thru
Once again I took her class and shes amazing! I love how she cares for her students. I took the summer 6 week classes and attendance Counted as long as you did the hw. The exams are fair. The exams are from Connect which is where we do our hw from. Overall class was great! I love her!
If you enjoy working on your own, she is the professor for you. I completed the course a week early. NVCC has specific material that is required and she covers it well. Accounting is a difficult subject to teach and learn. Just follow her notes and pay attention you will do well.
She is a great professor to take for both ACC 211 and ACC 212. Last fall, I took ACC 211 with her and passed with an "A" and same goes for this semester. Although the workload can be tough for some, she provides examples and her lecture videos help so much when needing to understand a certain concept. I suggest taking her!
Each chapter there are 3 sets of activities - reading, homework, and quiz. As long as you do it, you will get all the points. There were 4 exams, 2 were proctor. I dropped accounting twice, and to get an A Im excited. I wanted to take her for acc212 but she wasnt offering an online class.
She was a wonderful professor, her recorded video explaining each module along the way was amazing and so helpful. I enjoyed having her so much that actually registered for ACC 212 next semester with her.
She is a great professor to take for both ACC 211 and ACC 212. She cares. She's a good professors
(1/2) I took Prof. Panchal for 211 and 212. I want to start off by saying Panchal is fairly pleasant, she can be great sometimes but mostly bland lectures and online coursework. I'll be 100% honest, I didn't try hard at all for 211, I failed 1 of 3 exams(weighted heavily) and I still got a B. Unfortunately she is Extremely unprofessional.(TBC pt2.)
She's a good person but her accents made it hard to understand. Lectures and hw were heavy, but the it would be similar to what on the tests. If you take the 7-week class, prepare yourself that it'll be really fast. Attendance's mandatory.
10/10 professor, she gives you a "deadline" but as long as you turn in everything at the end you're fine. I was supposed to end with a C her letter bump my grade to a B so I definitely recommend her!
