    T​his course was well put together. I used to feel so intimidated by finances. The interactive videos and practice exercises do a fantastic job of explaining concepts learned throughout this course.

    Wow! I was really impressed with the videos and information that was presented in this course. I learned alot and I have been doing bookkeeping for awhile. It was a great refresher course for me.

    A lot of concepts were glanced over and not covered in detail. Practice assignments are confusing. I learned more just by taking the terms that were being covered and looking them up on youtube and accounting websites.

    There was so much I still didn't know going into the Case Study Quiz at the end. I had to research outside of coursera to know how to fill in the general ledger. The course should have prepared us more for this.

    Unless I missed a lot of the lectures or teachings, there wasn't much teaching of the accounts and how they were classified. I also couldn't keep up with the experts as they moved through the QuickBooks screens.

    The course provides a basic understanding of the subject, but never truly allows the students to learn with enough practice problems/situations. You also can't find completed explanations for the final project.

    For my personal experience, it was taught in a way that is hard for me to understand and grasp. A think there was an attempt to make this more funny or more entertaining than understanding the material.

    More time spent on double accounting, what is a credit vs debit in the chart of accounts to really cement that information. I feel this is the foundation and without that - difficult to move forward.

    glanced over some more intricate topics and went too in depth on others. Rather than interviews with bookkeepers - more practice and cases would be better. Bianca is condescending to my intellect.

    Some important parts of Bookkeeping Basics like Payroll, Tax on Cryptocurrency etc which form parts of the Intuit Exams are missing. The Bookkeeping Basics on Coursera should be upgraded or updated.

    Although I have no background in bookkeeping or accounting, I feel that this lesson should have been longer and more in depth. Overall, the way the subject is presented and taught is fine.

    I think more practice would be great, make the practices harder less put this here, put this there. Let us think for ourselves. The best way to remember is repetition. Not enough of that.

    Parts of the course were missing, in all weeks, generally in the 15 minute timeframes in the course overviews. I reported and received the "instructions" which did not resolve the issue.

    Would be great but I was not made aware the exam was only available in the US. Would have been great to have that posted boldly before I took the course and spent days working on it.....

    Screens do not fit and one is constantly changing from full screen to full image within the web page to who knows what. I would also like at least a page of notes for the entire module.

    For a beginner, I think it lacks a lot of explaination of the concepts and how to use them. But it touches on everything. Just had to go to youtube for a more throughough explaination.

    Way too much "fluff" ("Bianca" videos) and not enough PRACTICAL instruction. Also, insufficient explanation as to WHY the sole incorrect answer on my final exam was in fact incorrect

    it should have had more exercises during the course, especially in the end, more deep comprehensive tests that give you a more detailed looks about real world scenarios

    Cartoon is annoying. More case practice would be more helpful, especially with the time that passes from week one to final exam. Would rather have a professional teach.

    It teaches you terminology and definitions, but the interactive portions are lacking. If you get something wrong there is no explanation to how or why, just wrong.

    This course is great for a beginner, but I feel like it needs to go in depth more and add more preactice on the modules and explain how someone got the answer.

    She should have explained things more elementary as its a fountation course. Things were not very clear and had to supplement with YouTube videos' on topics.

    Great for learning the terms and language but lacked quite a bit in actual implementation of the bookkeeping process. A little disapointed in that aspect.

    The ending test is very confusing. Excel spreadsheets are not really delved into. And a refresher before the case study would be helpful.

    IT was a really nice way to refresh your thought, the only things to make this course a five stars is to have more practical things.
