Perez is an engaging professor who makes lectures enjoyable. Attend class, do the homework, and use study tools like ChatGPT and unstuck ai to prep for the tough exams. If you put in the work, you'll learn a lot in this class.

Made me reconsider if I should do tax instead of audit. I really learned a lot about tax and he presents in an interesting way. Spent a decent amount studying and I think that pays off

Great guy and great prof. Easy to start skipping classes but you'll save yourself time going. Exams are 100% based on the handouts. Make a good cheat sheet and you're good to go.

Prof. Perez is pretty great. In lectures, he is extremely slow and detailed, which helps if you are not understanding. Exams are very reflective of the work in class. Don't forget to start your cybertext a lil early. He is funny, gives good real-world examples, and is very accessible outside of class.

Nice guy but genuinely just fills the first test with information that he never references in class or on the homework with the intent for you to fail. Class average was a 60.

One of the best business school professors and will be taking again. Very clear with what will be on exams, and you actually learn the material instead of just memorizing and forgetting it later. Lectures are very clearly organized and enjoyable. Often leaves time at the end of class for questions, additional help, or to review exam questions.

Everyone bombs the first exam. Make a great formula sheet and study the handouts carefully. Professor Perez is the BEST Accounting 212 Professor. He is a cool guy who makes lectures entertaining, and clearly enjoys teaching. There are some professors you must take at the University of Miami and Professor Perez is one of the few that exist. 20/10!

Perez is a great teacher. Explains everything very clearly and will answer questions. If you want to get a good grade, you NEED to go class. He does not waste any time and lectures for the entire duration of the class. First test is definitely the most difficult because there's so much content. Homework and cybertext project are annoying.

Attendace isn't mandatory but I would recommend heavily since he has a good sense of humor and everything he says will be important. He wastes no time lecturing, and is very engaging. Homework is weekly and is easy; cybertext is very clear when working on it. Exams are tough, but just attend lectures and take notes. Allowed a formula sheet.

Professor Perez is great and a really good lecturer. However, if you don't go to class you will not do well. He doesn't post lectures so unless you get notes from someone you will be lost if you don't go. With that said, if you go to class and study before exams there is no reason you shouldn't do well. Homework and cybertext are easy points.

Perez does his best with a course that can get really tedious. He has great sarcastic humor if you're into that. Exams aren't as hard as the other reviews say; if you just study you'll be fine. If you don't study, no way you will do well.

Prof. Perez is an excellent Accounting professor at the U. His exams are difficult however, if studied ahead of time, 90%+ on each is possible. Connect assignments and the Cybertext project account for your grade and he checks for completion. He is very accessible and asks many questions; there is no reason you should fail!

The most amazing professor I have had at UM. I am convinced he can explain accounting to a 3 year old. Tests can be long and tedious but he tells us exactly what is coming so once you prepare you will do well. Extremely helpful in his office hours as well with anything you need help with. TAKE HIM.

Coming from someone who dropped accounting with Levine and thought I would NEVER understand accounting, Perez is amazing. Go to class, listen, and ask questions and you will do great. Homework is annoying, but it's really all you do outside of class. He's so nice, explains things thoroughly, and I now actually understand accounting for got an A- (:

There's no reason an accounting professor should be funny, but Professor Perez manages to be! You can get a good idea of how his class is from the other ratings, but here's a quick rundown: HW is manageable (takes time though) and tests are surprisingly difficult (redo the sheets he gives you to do well + slight curve at the end of the year).
