Accounting Tutoring

Sylvia W.

Greetings! When I first took my bookkeeping class a long time ago, as part of my vocational training, I knew this is what I want to do to make a living, this is what I understand. Nothing seemed more straightforward and cut and dry than allocating the numbers between the left and right side of the accounting equation.

I have been helping students make sense of accounting on and off for 20 years. I like to help you understand it and make sense of it all!

In 1995 I graduated from Martin-Luther University in Germany as Diplom-Kauffrau in Business Administration, majoring in accounting. When I first came to the US in 1995/1996, I took Principles of Accounting 1 and 2, and Intermediate Accounting 1 and 2 and Advanced Accounting at Howard Community College in Columbia, MD. That actually helped me tremendously in improving in the English Language as I translated every word that I did not know, from my accounting books. I didn't have to worry about the accounting content since I was already familiar with that part. It was more about learning the English accounting vocabulary.

In 1999 I got my first accounting tutoring job at Howard Community College in Columbia, MD. Later on I have been tutoring at the Community College of Baltimore County at the Catonsville, MD location from 2004-2008 and again from 2014-2017. All accounting tutoring was part-time as I have worked full-time jobs in accounting departments to make a living.

I have tutored many students before, and have worked in the different areas in an accounting department. Completing assignments with a tutor and talking what it's all about will help you memorizing the material.

We figure out what you need to focus on to understand the subject and the steps to get you there.
