    This was a challenging course for anyone who doesn’t do manual bookkeeping. Understanding the underlying concepts is foundational and helpful. However, the actual practice of bookkeeping is more modern and it would be helpful for these courses to be updated.

    Easy to follow and understand. I appreciate having the double quizzes at the end of each chapter to test and help solidify the skills.

    This is a rigorous and detailed self-study. I would like tutoring on it though working through the notebook is something that is feasible, it just takes quite a bit of concentration.
    However, the material is interesting and it is the first self-study bookkeeping course that has real world bookkeeping information. Wonderful course.

    Same as the other book, Mastering Double-Entry Bookkeeping. I found it very informative, but I did not like that when I download the books, it downloads as a solid graphic and not as a graphic with text. This didn’t allow me, who has vision problems, to listen to them with a text reader as well as reading. It took me a lot longer than normal to process the book than I would have otherwise. It would also be nice if videos and other interactive demonstrations were provided with the course. Very limited to be online in book format.

    The information was presented in a concise and easy to understand manner. However, an accompanying CD would really boost this course. Said CD would be a fitting substituted for a lecture.
