I really enjoyed listening to the lectures and going over each lesson. It was very well prepared with examples and the videos were very helpful. I have learned a lot. It made a lot of sense when listening to the videos and going over the sample forms 1040 and other forms. I will recommend this course to all the students who wants to pursue in Accounting and Taxation.

I benefited greatly from this amazing course! It is very well laid out and with each lesson gives you a real sense of accomplishment and that you learned something useful and applicable. Tax accounting used to look very difficult for me, but now I feel like I have a great understanding of the principles and a great foundation to kick off my tax accounting career!

I spent nearly a $1,000 on a online course but didn't learn nearly as much as a I did from this course. Super detailed, great examples and thank goodness I was allowed a few retakes. I've been out of school for quite some time. I highly recommend this course and the series. I recommendation for anyone considering this series is to take the course one at a time.

Excellent preparatory course fro those preparing their own taxes or getting in the Taxation Industry.
Both professors were explaining the material in an easy to understand without going into a myriad of technicalities.
One thing I will suggest is to offer more examples even if they are as links to understand the concepts easily.
Overall, I enjoyed it a lot.

Great introductory course. As a European tax professional with very limited US personal tax experience I found the content well delivered and easy to understand. The final assignment was tricky for me due to the intricacies of the return forms (and never having prepared one for myself before) but being pointed to the excel version online helped enormously.

I was looking for a course related to taxation of individuals that I could take online. This was the perfect choice. I learned much about current tax laws, and found the work challenging. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone wanting to learn about taxation. Also, the instructors are excellent.

The way Mr. Hutchens and Mr. Lisoswky has explained the concepts is really commendable. They not only explained the provisions of IRC but also explained the exact reasons why some provisions has been put into the law. Feeling blessed to have them as my instructor.
Thankyou, Gies College of Business

The screencasts were engaging and clear, and I especially liked the practical examples. There was not a single thing that made me think, "I wish they had included..." in the whole course -- very comprehensive!

I found the information, while somewhat dated, to be an excellent course for someone who is already licensed as a CPA that needed a low-cost refresher prior to the start of tax season.
