Hey, check it out, this is the first video of Chapter 1: The Accounting Equation. It's thrilling. You're going to love it!
Hello there, I'm Aaron. I designed and coded this site, recorded all these videos, and wrote all the practice problems. I got my Undergrad and Master's in Accounting and then went on to get my CPA License (exciting, right?). I worked at Ernst and Young for about a year but never really loved it, so I quit and became a programmer. I do love accounting though, and I love teaching it, which is why I made this site. Please feel free to reach out to me if you ever have any questions!
A couple of bits of info about the site:
- I've recorded 94 videos, which means you get 940 minutes of accounting (lucky you)
- There are 78 practice problems right now, and I'm always adding more.
- Those problems & videos cover all 11 chapters of Ac 210.
- You can email me anytime at [email protected].

Chapter 1
Debits, Credits, and the Accounting Equation
I seriously can't put into words how grateful I am to have found your videos for Financial Accounting last semester. If it wasn't for your website I could not have passed that class, my professor was awful and you taught it in such a clear and understandable way!

Chapter 2
The Balance Sheet
I learn ten times better off of videos like yours.
— Giancarlo, Spring 2019

The Income Statement and Normal Balances
I just want to let you know that since I've started your videos (the past two tests) I have gotten two 94s!!! I just wanted to say thank you so much you do a great job!
— Abby, Fall 2017
Chapter 4
Differences in Timing, Adjusting Entries, and the Closing Process
Honestly, if it weren't for your website, I would not have passed this class. I bombed the first two exams with 50s, but then after one of my friends told me about your website, I managed to bring my next exam score up to a 77. I did better than the class average of 68! Your videos are super clear and easy to follow. I appreciate how much effort you put into them.

Your videos have truly helped more than I could ever explain! They gave me such a good guideline for how to solve problems, and how you go through each problem step-by-step makes accounting seem so much easier.
— Caitlyn, Spring 2018

Inventory Costing Methods
This website was amazing. I was SO lost in lecture but these videos really helped me piece everything together. I tried outside tutoring but it didn't work. THIS is what you need to ensure you are understanding ALL material.

I wanna say thank you very much for doing the videos. I just got my grade and I made an A in accounting, and I must say I owe it to you and your videos.

Your website is so awesome!! Seriously you give a fresh perspective on all the topics talked about in class and the vocabulary you use is very easy to understand. The way you teach almost makes the material feel very easy to comprehend.
