Reviews of professor Gloria Liu

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Gloria is great! She clearly knows a lot about accounting, and she is very quick to answer emails with questions and concerns. Her accent is strong but using context clues, it makes sense. Gloria teaches very quickly and gives weekly homework. Homework is either written problems from the book or the online textbook modules.

So i am awful at accounting, terrible at it. But Gloria was extremely helpful and went out if her way to assist me in accounting. The class was very hard for me but i took her a second time just because if anyone could teach me accounting, it would be her. Sad truth is, accounting is a tough class. But having a good professor is key to success

You never really know your grade until this class is over. We take 40 quizzes, but only half counts. There's 3 avenues of homework: learnsmart (online), connect (online), and then book and paper homework. There's also a predetermined amount of each of these but only half count. It's pretty much impossible to determine your grade.

Gloria does not care about your struggles during this course. Out of every question I asked her she never gave me a good answer. Insane amount of extra homework every class that is just useless and best described as pure busy-work. As a professor she is very condescending towards students especially those who have questions on the materials.

Accounting isn't even my major, so I get the fear of knowing you need to take this class. My expectations were exceeded with this class because of Gloria. She is the best professor I have ever had, out of the two and a half years of schooling at BW. Put in the time necessary to do well in the class and she will too. Love her humor and wisdom.

To start positive, Gloria is readily available outside of class when students need extra help. That is where the positives start and end. She assigns an insane amount of homework every week, daily quizzes, harsh grader, blames students for her mistakes, and overwhelms you with so much material it is near impossible to keep up with other classes.

Pros: Very fair grader, as long as she can tell that you understand the material, she'll give you full points. Gives you two tries on daily quizzes and gives you the answers so you can get full points. The study guide looks exactly like the exam.
Cons: A LOT OF HOMEWORK. I don't mind the written hw, but I think the online hw is useless.

Gloria is an amazing teacher. She gives a lot of homework, but the homework truly prepares you for the exams and for intermediate accounting. She does a wonderful job setting your accounting foundation. I highly recommend her for any accounting course. Stay on track with assignments and ask questions if you are lost. You don't want to fall behind.
