I like how each section is short, so even if you need to go back to review something, you don't have to wade through the entirety of a long lesson to find what you're looking for. Worst-case scenario? It's not a huge commitment to rewatch a 10-minute lesson. Also, the concepts are easy to grasp and learn. I took a couple of accounting courses to satisfy my non-accounting business degree and I feel like this course is painless and anyone at any age can understand it.

This course was a pretty good overview, and offered a good refresher since it's been quite some time since I took my accounting courses. I felt Statement of Cash Flows went much too quickly, and didn't explain the steps quite well enough to really grasp the concepts, but overall, the rest of the course was informative.
