I took professor Hefter because his reviews said that he was an excellent instructor. After taking his Accounting 301 class, I have to say that he is by far the best SFSU instructor I ever experienced. If you are looking for an easy class this not the class for you. However, if you are serious about learning intermediate financial accounting, Hefter is the instructor you want to take.

Throughout the semester, I felt that Hefter pushed us and encouraged us to learn, and not to worry as much about the mechanics, but instead, to concentrate on the basic concepts of the issues at hand. He basicaly teaches you to learn and not pass a class.

Hefter's availability is amazing, I don't understand how he does it. He is available all the time and if you need him after the end of class, he is more than willing to stay and help you as long you need him to.

His exams are long and they test your knowledge, as he puts it, his tests force you to take the material learned, one step further.

In his lectures, professor Hefter gives advise based on his real professional experience and most of his advises were applicable to my current job and profession. This was an added bonus to his clear lectures.
