If you need a speech credit, I highly recommend taking it with Professor Holloman as your instructor. Her lectures are engaging; she makes the material interesting and is very straightforward in what you need to know. Encourages a comfortable environment, which is helpful if speech/public speaking isn't your strong suit.

Ms. Holloman is a nice and friendly professor. Her class is straight forward and rubrics for speeches is very easy to understand. Very little homework or reading from the book. The only complaint I have are the two tests. The midterm and final have very ambiguous questions and you will not know these answers regardless of how long you study.

I enjoyed taking this class. If you are looking for an easy A, all you have to do is follow the directions and LISTEN! Sometimes she will mention something that is a little specific, so be careful that you don't miss it. Also, she didn't use the textbook very much in class, it was as if we had an open discussion every day. It was pretty neat

Ms. Holloman is nice and she is when she lectures she is pretty good at keeping the class engaged, but when she leaves you comments after your speeches it is very difficult to understand what she writes you because her hand writing is very bad. Another thing is that her tests are very ambiguous, but over all she is a nice teacher.
