She is an amazing person! Really wants to get to know you as a person. She is really good at her job but because she is older she struggles with technology and is not very organized. making it hard to navigate through canvas but she really tries and always helps when you message her

Exams are very HARD. Studied for hours and hours for each exam, and then the exams don't even cover the material in review guides or the main class content. I would look at other ACC 201 professors reviews before you sign up for Professor Wells accounting class.

The exams do not cover basic material. Unless you spend 15+ hours a week on this course alone, good luck getting an A. The only saving grace is this course was unweighted.

Comment:
This professor is well respected among acc201 professors. I don't know if it was just covid semester or, but worst teacher I have ever had. 1 homework assignment per chapter. Has some extra credit, DO IT. Lectures are boring and she doesn't explain things well. Exams are HARD. She had multiple students email her about failing and nothing was done.

I'm not an acc major so this class was tough for me. Wells is the best professor she can be given the hard content, which she can't control. Exams make up a majority of your grade. Do the all learning notes, homework, practice questions, and work through everything until you can do it will no help before taking a quiz/exam. Go to office hours too.

Professor Wells is great! She explains things very clearly and really cares about students. This class is definitely not an easy A, but if you are willing to work it is attainable. Also, attendance isn't mandatory, but she does give extra credit for perfect attendance.

Professor Wells is an amazing teacher. She genuinely cares about her students' success. She gives you plenty of material to be prepared for the exams but it is up to you to actually use those. If you have any questions or problems at all GO TO OFFICE HOURS! She is more than happy to help. There is also extra credit for attendance at the end!

The learning notes, in-class handouts, homework, and other materials given to you are extremely helpful for the exams. The class is tough, but as long as you put in the work (redo learning notes, redo homework and handout problems!!) you will succeed. Don't be afraid to ask her for help! TAKE HER!!!! You won't regret it !

Jane is so sweet and you can tell she really wants her students to learn. She gives lots of handouts and doing the learning notes BEFORE class will make your life 10X easier. Awesome teacher, definitely recommend taking her.

Jane Wells is the sweetest woman alive. However, she is the head of the accounting department. Her tests are 75% written (gives partial credit), and the MC are harder. If you miss one class you will likely miss a whole topic that is covered on the exam. Also, she is the only prof in accounting 201 that doesn't give quizzes (a huge plus).

She is really sweet, really cares about her students. However, as a person who is not going into accounting, the material is really difficult. Being a person who loves accounting, she doesnt always explain things well enough to the people in her class that dont. The exams are hard, so studying is needed.

Just about the most caring professor you will ever have. She loves teaching and it shows. With that said, this class is VERY hard (probably harder than 301, in my opinion). There are no semi-easy questions on the exams- she makes sure that you understand the material. She takes attendance and gives extra credit at the end of the semester, so go.

ACC 301/302 are the hardest classes you will take if you are an accounting major. But the great thing about Wells is she walks through exactly what to expect on the tests. No surprises on the exams. Loves getting to know the students.

Comment:
Beware finance majors!! She's a nice lady but this class is HARD. I've never struggled in a class like I did in this one, and acc is usually easy for me. She overcomplicates things and while this is probs helpful for accounting majors, its just TOO much for finance people. I ended up losing study time for my major bc I had to work SO hard in here.

ACC201 is difficult because it's an introduction to a whole new topic, but she made it a lot more comfortable and easy for us. As long as you're willing to put in some effort, you'll get a grade you're happy with.

Jane Wells is the best teacher I've had in college. She is caring, sweet, and funny, but she's also a great teacher who wants you to succeed. Accounting is hard, but she does everything she can to help you. You have to work for an A, but you can definitely get one.

I was so nervous for accounting because I am not the best at math, but Jane made it so much better I even became a accounting major lol! She is very caring and wants everyone to do well and is extremely accessible outside of class for any questions! Just go to class, ask questions, and go to her Q&A sessions before exams and quizzes!!

Dr. Wells was a great professor! She explains the material thoroughly and makes a tough subject easy to grasp. There is tons of extra credit (bonus on tests, quizzes, attendance bonus), so if you put in the effort, you should be able to get an A. Show up, do the learning notes and readings, and study. You'll be in good hands w/ Wells!
