Class is easy. Misses class alot. An excellent teacher, upbeat and gives intersting lectures. He cares about students and gives no tests. YOu give three speeches and last one is optional. Class is an easy A. Our final was take home.
THE BEST TEACHER EVER!!! EASY, FUN, INTERESTING, LAID BACK, AND WE ONLY HAD AN EXAM WHICH IS EXTREMELY EASY. EXTRA CREDIT AVAILABLE, AND EASY TO GET A LONG WITH. YOU WILL HAVE A LOT OF FUN IN THAT CLASS..TAKE HIM!! I GOT AN A ON IT
He is a very good teacher. He is also outgoing and easy. If you need to take speech take it with him and you will have fun.
This teacher is so awesome!!! He's so laid back and his class is VERY easy going. Take hime for an easy A and you'll have lots of fun. Chuck is also very nice and understanding. ONE OF THE BEST TEACHERS ON CAMPUS!!!
Chuck is awesome. At first I thought he was a total fake with how he presented himself, but that's how he really is: always happy, cool, understanding, laid back. You will actually learn something from this class.
This is the easiest class that I took at Fullerton College. The teacher is very clear and friendly. The subject matter is also easy. Participating in the class was fun. Take "Interpersonal Communication" from him and get an A.
I agree with all the other posters. I just wanted to point out that Chuck and Charles are the same person (I rated the teacher under the name Charles).
the easiet class i ever took...he isn't there half the time but we manage to get everything done...take this class for public speaking =]
Very easy class, friendly ,helpful...you can walk to his office anytime and ask him questions ....i mean i always have a very hard time with english ....but this was a very easy class....to the point where you don't even have to show up for class...Bottom line take him !!!!!
Few words could describe Mr. Schillings dedication to building within his students a foundation of confidence, knowledge, and control when faced with making presentations and speeches geared to motivate and enlighten. Personality and charisma are two more reasons that students appreciate Mr. Schilling. Thank you Mr. Schilling.
FUNNEST CLASS! i loved it! the teacher is fantastic and you feel confident in the class. to my surprise it really helped me and i left with a great experience.
He was a hard grader on speeches. I took the summer class so we had to just give a good speech from the first speech assignment. But he is very animated and helpful.
Great, energetic teacher who knows what he's talking about and is passionate about it. Wants to help in any way possible, if that be letting you eat in class, coming in alittle late, or giving you on the side criticism.
Maybe the best teacher at FC. Seriously the most caring, straightforward, funny teacher around. Do yourself a favor and take this class!
a great teacher, easy to talk too.
Chuck is the best instructor on campus! He's very easy, laid back and above all, understanding. I had personal problems and missed practically half the semester, yet still got an A in class. His class is interesting and you get over your fear of public speaking QUICK! As an instructor, he makes you feel confident in front of class. I love Chuck!!!
No Comments
Mr. Schilling is great. He is very comfortable with speaking and so down to earth you don't feel like you are in a classroom. I had him at 7:00 am and his class was great first thing in the morning.
this instructor is the sh**. He is really chill. there is some work but it's not hard at all. His class is all about group work, so if you don't like working in groups this won't be the class for you otherwise it's for you and it's an wasy A. Take him you won't regret it.
THE EASIEST CLASS AT FJC - BAR NONE! This class is unbelievably simple. There are a few tests, which are so simple and open ended that you can ace all of them without any studying. You are required to give 3 speeches, I gave one, and Chuck ended up cancelling enough classes so that I never had to speak again, and got an A in the class.
He is soooo nice!! Very easy going and cool I reccommend him to everyone who needs a speech class. He also cancels class a lot!
Best professor at FJC!!! i love chuck!
my favorite class ever. he is so laid-back and nice. i had so much fun in his class.
His class was very laid back and he was missing at least a quarter of the semester! The class was very easy as long as you try a little bit, and even though I had B's on my speeches (and probably flunked the quizzes), I still got a A in the class. Very easy, but you will learn almost nothing.
very easy class piece of cake.
great teacher! very sincere and passionate about his teachings and very nice!
GREAT TEACHER! Have nothing but great things to say about a class so easy where you still learn something. Also understands that you have a life as well. Highly recommend taking his class. Probably the most pleasant and nicest guy you will ever meet.
GREAT TEACHER!! Super understanding if something comes up. Really cares about each student. Take him!
I really didnt want to take this class at all because I hate public speaking. It was ok. He was really nice though. very helpful. you dont really need to go to class that often. There are 3 big speeches and 2 informal ones. The midterm and the final were both take home essays
I seriously am in love with Chuck Schilling. He insists we call him Chuck. What I loved was that his class is very laid back and he understands if you can't make it to a speech. He grades speeches almost objectively in a way, and you're sure he is very interested in what you have to say. I reccomend taking this class!!!!! You won't be disappointed.
I Loved this cl****!! Mr. Schilling is so nice and helpful. I hated public speaking so much but he made this cl**** so relaxed and fun. This was definitely one of my favorite cl****es and professor at Fullerton College.
I took this class in summer time and you can not believe how quick this class ended. I totally didnt want to say good bye to mr. Schilling because he is an awesome teacher.He is a very fun and cool person. I highly recommend students to take his class. Before this class i used to hate going up in front of class and speak but i dont hate it anymore
this was the best class i ever took. i took it during the summ and it's so fun that you want to go to class everyday just so you can hear ppls speeched. Mr. S is way cool. the class went by so fast and was real sad when it was over. recomment it most deg!
Chuck's class is pretty simple. 3-4 speeches are to be given. Both the midterm & final exams are simple write-ups. This class is an easy A if you exhibit confidence and provide interesting topic matter.
If you want an easy A then take Chuck Schilling. You won't learn much from the class but you will gain a great deal of confidence. I took it over the summer of 07 and the only hard part was trying to prepare a speech every one or two weeks while working full-time. This is probably the most enjoyable class you will have at FJC. P.S. Take him!
I tookl interpersonal communication with him, he is great. Friendly, funny, misses class a LOT. Easy A. You chose what kind of tests you want and there are only three. One group project at the end.
Easy teacher. One group project so simple. Easy grader. Grades tests on a curve. Misses often for valid reason. Bring something incase! Class is boring but funny. Do not buy the book you will never use it! On reserve in the Library. Instead photo copy the literally 6 pages you will need out of it. Attendance not required but suggested.
Misses class A LOT - which sucks because I look forward to people's speeches; also, because of him. He is seriously the most positive, fun teacher I've had. His happiness is infectious; I don't see why anyone wouldn't like him. Very lax & forgiving. Gave good tips on speaking. Easy A. Make his class the last of your day so you can go home early.
He is the best teacher on campus! Very helpful! Easy A...
Fun, easy class. Very lenient with assignments. Our last quiz was a group quiz.
He is one of the sweetest teachers I had. He is always positive and treats everyone with respect. Class was easy and comfortable. Only 3 quizes which are super easy and one final paper. And 3 speeches.
Great teacher! Super Nice! Only two speeches both of them with a group. Book is pointless don't buy it you only need 10 pages out of it and you may copy them. Projects are really easy. Easy A. Just do the small homework which is the 10 pages and listen in class. So easy! Definitely take him.
Chuck was an awsome teacher! His class was very helpful in helping me overcome my fear of speaking in front of people. A few quizzes, 3 speeches... very easy his is so sweet and helpful!! take him!!
Very cool guy. Absent a lot. Doesn't explain things very clearly.
such a sincere guy! his lectures can get pretty boring but he doesnt do that too too often. very lenient, easy going, and extremely understanding. i would totally recommend him. had pretty much no hw but one group project towards the end of the semester. textbook used in class is interesting and easy to read. ask for the extra credit on tests!
You learn so much about life and speaking to others and become a good communicator. The group project about yourself and philosophy on life is fun! He is a good teacher! He is very upbeat positive and fun! Take his class! He is trully doing what he loves and it shows!!
This professor is an example of what all professor's should be. He is patient and understanding and makes sure all students remain interested.
Rad teacher, couldn't expect a better one. He's been teaching a while, so he is really knowledgeable on how to present the subject. Chuck makes class so very fun. I don't need to say more than: take his class!
Cancels class often and my grades are past due for my transcripts. He has a likable personality though.
chucks class is fun. most of the time people are doing speeches so he doesnt teach a lot. he missed a lot of class too. pretty easy essays for midterms and final.
Super nice! One of the best professors! If your planning on taking speech, don't take it with anyone else! The class was really fun and the professor was amazing!! :-)
Chuck is an amazing professor, he knows his stuff. Take if you have to a public speaking class. He makes public speaking like a piece of cake. Take him he is awesome !!
One of my favorite professors at Fullerton College. He is very relaxed and welcoming. Always leave early, about 30 minutes to an hour early and cancels class a lot. Yet still learning and if you are terrified of public speaking, you will easily be able to do it in this class. Speak about things you have interests in and it will come easily.
Great and easy teacher. if you want an easy A take this class. Three speeches. and a few little assignments. most people in class got an A or B
I love this class and is the best professor by far that cares about his students. Professor is funny and I enjoying going to his class every week. Easy group activities and two presentation. I highly recommend this class for students who don't feel comfortable talking in front of class.
All the comments about this guy are true. More of a friend than a professor. VERY VERY easy going. Grades very easily and always welcomes and treats students with respect. By far the best Professor at FJC. Couple of presentations. 3 tests-extremely easy. Do not take any other speech professor!!
Great teacher! I Definitely recommend him. Easy A !!
mr schilling has got to be the coolest teacher i ever had from FJC. he is EXTREMELY chill. his class was one of the funnest class i've had also [:
There are two tests including the take home final. You have to give two speeches (informative and persuasive). Pretty easy class if you know the subject you are speaking on. He cancels class all of the time. I asked him to post on MyGateway when he was going to cancel class and he wouldn't. Make sure this is your last class of the day.
His class is extremely interesting. You can learn a lot in his class. He is the best teacher in Fullerton College I ever seen
best teacher by far @ fullerton. i put off this class until i absolutely had to take it and i'm so glad i took it over summer! he makes you feel extremly comfortable,&loves when people volunteer to participate (be time keeper, easiest 10 points!) he loves his job and loves his students, i wish he would teach my bio classes! DEFINATELY recommend
Chuck is the nicest prof ever.You could run over his dog and he would still love you!he is very helpful and does truly want to help you become a better speaker.He is very patient and sweet!He may say he won't add you in the class if you aren't on the waitlist but in the end he will!!TAKE HIM!
honestly one of the best teachers i have taken @ fullerton college. he is so helpfull & nice & will always understand if you have something going on, he wont hold it against you if you dnt show up. ask him for extra credit & he will give it to you, you can do anything and he will give you an A. super easy, highly recommended :)
CHUCK IS THE BEST SPEECH TEACH AND OVERALL PROFESSOR @FULLERTON. I ENJOYED EVERYMINUTE OF HIS CLASS AND I HAD IT IN THE LATE EVENING
Overall he must be one of the nicest profs out there.. it kina makes you depressed to think no one this nice will come along..
Nicest guy, makes public speaking as comfortable as possible. Great professor. Take him!
He teaches by example which in my opinion is the best kind of teaching. Don't take his kindness for weakness, Chuck speaks softly but carries a heavy grade book. Slackers will get smacked.
Awesome professor!!!! If you do the work you will do great. He was always helpful!!! Even thou some of us in the class were frighten of speaking in public, he made that "fear" go away by the end of the semester. He is very understandable on attendance.. the key to get an A is to show up and do the work. if you don't you'll get a failing grade.
SCHILLING IS THE EMBODIMENT OF AWSOMENESS!!! Every second of his presence was a motivation in life. He will hear about every aspect, opinion, and concern a student has... and will prove outstanding care and interest. He said if I ever needed a referral or letter of recomendation he will be more than happy to give me one. Seriously, great person!!
He is the nicest teacher I'ever have. He will let you talk about whatever you want in your presentations. I was afraid of this class, but he made it easy and FUN. He is ver helpful and flexible.
He is a teacher that teaches by example, which is undoubtedly essential for a communication class. In this case, he sets a great example. He's one of those teachers that you hate to piss off just because of how nice he is. Which I guess justifies my first sentence.
He's a great guy! Take him if you have a chance I'm glad I did
great teacher! always,always encouraging! if you dread taking this class but cant get around it then i highly recommend taking his class.
Awesome professor. If you WANT to pass.. you WILL. He truly cares about his students and wants to see you succeed. One of the best teachers on this campus by far!! Take him!
I'm twenty-two now and in my last semester of college, and I can easily say he was my favorite prof. hands down. Don't do your speeches on some mundane topic; make them exciting. He gives you complete freedom, so let your creativity flow and make the best speech that you can make. Let your speeches be something you can be proud of. Take this class.
this was the second easiest class i have ever taken (first was theater 105). If you're stuck on a question on a quiz he pretty much gives you the answer if you ask. the only problem i had with him was that he cancelled class AT LEAST 6 times and did not notify us in advance. other than that he is a great guy.
Awesome and super nice. Cares about you and your ability. Won't push you.. Will help you out as much as he can. Class is fun once the speeches start
Such a nice guy! Super easy class if you just do the work.
Take your thoughts and fears about public speaking and multiply them by 20. That's how I felt before taking this course. Honestly, just form a great group with great people and you'll be fine. He's seriously such a beautiful person and makes you feel so comfortable. I wish I could have his positive energy around me all the time. Love this man.
He is the best etcher ever!! so helpful really easy going! never homework and only 3 speeches
By far one of the nicest, liveliest, and easy going professors! Took his class in the summer and got an A. He takes any fear you have of pub. speaking and make you feel comfortable. Just do your speeches and show up-boom, an easy A. Didn't buy the book and aced the Midterm, don't really need it as it is common knowledge. Take him!! You'll thank me!
Prof. Schilling was such a laid back professor. I took him over the summer and he is the most recommended professor for Speech. He is helpful towards his students and makes the environment so comfortable when you're about to speak. "Fight or Flight?" Choose "Fight" and take his class!
Great teacher, he is absent alot. If you arent ready to give your speech the day you had it assigned, he will gladly let you reschedule and just give you so many opportunities to pass this class! Take him!
He is the best professor there could be in this field, its four speeches throughout the semester and they are easy. He is really nice adn is willing to work with you if for some reason you do not have your speech ready. I loved his class.
What a great teacher. He is so inspirational, helpful, and caring. He is genuine in his teaching and passion for the subject. Learned so much about myself and others, people don't realize how traumatic public speaking can be and he helps his students overcome it. I met the most amazing people in his class. So glad i took it.
gives you feedback after your speech! he is a great teacher when it comes to what he wants done in speeches. Dont go over 8 mins, a guy went 15-20 mins and everyone hated him semester.
Really helps one to get through their fears of speaking in front of people
Professor Schilling is one of the best professors I've taken at FC! Took him during Spring 2015! He teaches by example and it definitely helped me learn and grow in my communication skills! Like everyone else has mentioned, he does cancel class a lot but his generosity makes up for it! Definitely take him if you get the chance! You won't regret it!
Where can I begin? He's the most nicest, laid back professor at FC. There are a total of 2 quizzes (one take home), a midterm (group) and a final (take home). All were easy As. He'll push back your speech date if you need it and he also does extra credit speeches on the last day. He's amazing and I'm grateful to have had him as a speech professor.
Chuck is very easygoing. Take his class during the summer! It goes by super quick and there's less assignmentsspeeches, I imagine. You'll speak a total of 7 times, 1 is just introductory about yourself, 2nd is wyour group, the rest are on your own 5-7min long. The very last speech is 2mins. 1 quiz on your own 2nd wyour group. 2 EASY papers.
I took this class in the semester , it's very easy , just show up and do your work you will pass with an A . 3 speeches and 3 quizzes all easy . Take him , he is laid back , just don't get into a group of annoying people .
Prior to Speech class, I was terrified. After taking his class, I not only liked and passed it, but I became a tutor for his class. I am now taking his Speech 105 and look forward to it. The only reason why he's absent all the time is because he has skin cancer and is susceptible to illness. Also, you barely use the text (first quiz, that's it.)
What can I say I was afraid to take a speech class and after his class I was even looking for to taking it again. He is the sweetest professor when it comes to presenting in front of class. As long as you look at the audience in your speeches it's an easy A. Take him you won't regret it he's an easy going guy and easy
He's a great professor for speech. He really cares for his students and always recommends other teachers to take for that certain subject for another class you need to take. You should definitely take him as your speech professor.
You give 3 speeches, informative, persuasive, and one that's either or. 5-7 minutes long. SUPER easy. By far the best teacher I've ever had. He is so nice, caring, funny, easy going. If you need any help or extensions he always gives it. I would definitely take his class again. There's no better teacher than Mr. Schilling! You wont regret it!!!
This class was really nice and friendly with its environment. He's a pretty understanding teacher who doesn't mind pushing back your due date for a speech and with only 3/4 real speeches you have to give, this class isn't much of a problem. Textbook isn't necessary.
I took Chuck for spch 100 and 102 and he was by far the best teacher at fc, participate and try and it is a Easy A. no homework, surveys for test. He teaches you actual skills hands-on rather lecture you to death. TAKE HIM!!
Easiest most fun class i have ever taken. It's one of those classes that you could take in summer. His grading is amazing. It's a communications class... so look good and expect to make lots of friends (;
Charles is such an amazing professor; he definitely will leave an impression with you in your college career. He leads by example, and it has definitely taught me a lot when speaking in public. Although he tends to cancel class quite frequently, he's a great professor. Take him if you get the chance, you won't regret it!
WOW WOW WOW!!!! I was absolutely terrified to take any type of speech class. CHUCK IS AMAZING!!!! He is so hilarious, understanding, and compassionate! We are so lucky to have him on campus. This class was FUN and NOT AT ALL stressful like I had imagined. He makes you feel so comfortable and group speeches are less terrifying FYI. JUST TRUST ME!!
Taking Professor Schilling's class was one of the best decisions I ever made. He wants nothing more than to see you do your best when the time comes to deliver a speech and will give you great tips on how to improve. He grades mostly on confidence and effort rather than content, and at the introductory level, I feel that is appropriate.
Professor Schilling is by far one of the best teachers! Lots of group work, and his interaction with the students really helps you become a better speaker. Is there to help you learn and makes the class fun. The etext book was fine for me. Got an A in the class. Would definitely take again. If your shy, dont worry he will make feel comfortable.
Can't explain how amazingly clear his lectures are. Super cool individual. Love how his feedback papers are SO detailed so you'll know exactly what to improve on and what to keep doing well. Funnest class I've ever taken.
I actually became a better public speaker from his class. He gives you creative freedom to speak on what you actually want to speak about! Actually cares about his students, super understanding, and funny. TAKE HIS CLASS!
Chuck Schilling is a fabulous Speech professor. He is very understanding of each of his students and teaches them a lot about how to become an effective public speaker. He allows students to choose their own topics whether the speech was informative or persuasive. Overall, the class is an easy A and very enjoyable.
he made speech so fun cause i was nervous, there were a lot of other students who were too. but i do miss this class like no other. he does miss days but he sends out emails which is nice. the whole class supported each other and it was such an amazing time i this class. the final exam is so easy. you do get assigned two papers but so doable.
Very Very Caring professor. HE is the reason I switched to a Communication's Major. I took him as a freshman, loved him. He's so caring and improved my speaking talent. He's just awesome, as I am writing this I will be graduating Fullerton College this spring 2017, Woo so I wanted to rate my old professors to help other students. TAKE HIM (: easy A
I loved this class. It really helps you with your public speaking skills.
He will make you the best speaker ever!!!
Chuck is an amazing teacher! He's easy-going and keeps it simple. He really cares and involves everybody in class. He takes the fear out of public speaking and makes it seem like you're having a conversation with your friends. His tips and processes help make you a more active, organized, and stellar speaker. Food available for recipe speeches :-)
His speech class is the best. Chuck really wants everyone that have a good time and have fun with the speeches. Overall this is a course I would recommend to anyone ..
Best teacher! I hate speaking, but he made it fun & easy! I even did a speech on the order of cereal & milk. If you got B's on your speeches, don't worry. He has lots of extra credit so I got an A without trying! 3 speeches w/minor at the end. Don't be afraid of the papers at the end, thode are easy too. Don't get the book, we didn't use it at all!
I was scared at first to take this class because I don't like public speaking but I must say this was the most amazing class I have ever taken. Chuck is such a great teacher. I recommend taking this class.
I LOVE CHUCK! He is SO sweet, genuine, and kind. I only have good things to say about him and will continue recommending people on taking him. He is an easy A and will try his best to make you feel comfortable. Attendance doesn't matter much. He is such a gem your heart will melt! No need for textbook
AMAZING teacher! Very knowledgeable, very passionate, and super supportive. This class is 100% an easy A. Chuck is such a genuinely good person who does his best (and succeeds) at making you feel comfortable with public speaking. This was one of my favorite classes ever.
Chuck retired last year but I still wanted to rate him anyways. He's a rad professor who really cares about his students. If you had issues with your speech or weren't fully prepared he'd work with you. He was a real one. He appreciated a real honest effort and wanted to see students succeed in public speaking.
