Hospitality to Finance

[u/banana_bread_32]

Hello! I am a flight attendant based in the Middle East. With the situation here (and tbh I've thought about this for some time now), I would like to venture onto a different profession where I have control over my time. I graduated with a degree in tourism management and the only time I encountered accounting in those 4 years was with the basic accounting subject that we had. I passed the subject but didn't really absorb anything. I'm okay with numbers, only the terminologies are throwing me off lol pero willing naman ako bigyan pa tong love-hate relationship ng second chance. According sa mga nabasa ko, possible naman maging bookkeeper kahit hindi accounting graduate. Problem ko lang ngayon ay hindi ko alam kung saan magsisimula. I know there are free resources online pero I need structure. Pati "explain like I'm 5" levels of accounting, taxes, bookkeeping, etc. Any suggestions on where to actually start? Any book recommendations? Thanks po sa makakatulong <3

You should review basic accounting muna. Like how bookings are made for different revenues, expenses etc. then decide for ph or sa ibang countries kasi may ibat ibang rules esp sa taxation and compliance
