EXAMPLE OF WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR:

One thing I found challenging was the credits and debits concept from chapter two and matching them up, (common stock would be a cash debit and stock credit). Once I got it down it was one of those "why didn't it make sense to me sooner" moments but at the time I didn't understand and would switch things. How I approached the chapter was really to make sure I understood all the terms, ie notes payable, accounts receivable, etc. Being able to understand them without going back to the textbook made the process a bit faster and overall easier. Another thing was really taking advantage of the internet and that if there was something in the textbook I didn't understand, looking it up on Google and going through different websites and tutorials. While going through the problems I made sure to take as thorough notes as I could with information that I knew would help me moving forward, targeting the problems that were difficult for me. Being able to go back and read through something that was written in a way that made the most sense to me as an individual definitely proved helpful. I also Skyped a friend who is currently enrolled in a financial accounting class and we would work through problems together.
