About me

Hi! I’m James and I help students learn Accounts.

 

It is commonly said that what gets measured, gets managed. This cannot be more true for money and business needs. Therefore, accounts play a major role in any business or household for that matter.

 

I love to teach students how to make entries for various types of transactions and reconcile them to finalize the accounts.


I can Teach:

ABC Costing, Absorption Costing, Accounting Cycle, Accounting Equation, Accounting for Government, Accounting for Pensions, Accounting Information System, Accounting Standard Codifications, Accounting: Concepts and Principles, Accrual & Cash Basis, Adjusting Entries, Amortization, Assets and Liabilities, Audit Evidence, Audit Test

Teaching Experience

I want my students to have a strong understanding of the fundamentals. That is why I make sure that they know the rules for making accounting entries. This equips them to handle higher accounting and more complex aspects like auditing, taxation, etc.

 

An accountant is required to have a keen eye for finding errors and rectifying them. This helps them to get their Trial Balance and the Balance Sheet to reflect the correct position of the business. For this, I introduce them to the common errors like misposting, errors of transposition, etc.

 

My students can experience a lot of practice solving numerical problems with me. My intent is to let them take the lead and assist them when they get stuck. Also, I make sure I show them how to present their answers well and show the necessary steps in order to score optimum scores in exams.
