Featured Review
"Earlier this year, I began my own bookkeeping business in Indiana to help small local service businesses with their books. As I was preparing for that transition, I started looking for some basic accounting training as my degree in college was in music education. Someone recommended your website to me, and I loved it! I became a PRO user after I had been using the free version of your website for a while. I felt that having access to the additional materials (tests, quizzes, etc.) would help me synthesize and understand the information on a deeper level than simply reading about it. And it absolutely did. I liked the various ways that the website offers to engage with the information. Not only is it more interesting, but it truly aids in learning. As a trained educator, I greatly appreciated the incorporation of various learning implements to deepen understanding. I believe I have developed a much stronger understanding of accounting basics since using AccountingCoach. Obviously I'm not a CPA, but I have a good grasp on the fundamentals and the terminology involved. Thank you so much for this website—I appreciate feeling like my money is well spent, and upgrading to PRO was absolutely worth it." - Kate B.
