Sicre remains a mentor beyond the classroom and college and inspires me to work towards my goals. Take her as your professor, to get an education that goes beyond the classes she teaches. Class is fun and funny. She is brilliant, wise, charismatic, passionate, and caring. She loves teaching and loves her students even more. I highly recommend her.

I took this course over the winter session so the work was intense as Professor attempted to teach 3 months of work into 3 weeks. The work was tough but I thought she did I great job teaching the class. Expect group projects and of course several speeches will be asked of you to do. She also did a great job calming public speaking fears.

As scared as i was about speech class, she helped me conquer my stage freight & fear. I wouldn't have passed this class if it wasn't for this professor's guidance & teaching. she is so nice & made everyone feel comfortable. I took it in winter & the class was short & spicy. And the professor? She's the sweetest thing ever.

I took her class a few years back and I loved it. I've missed a day or two of other classes I've taken, but that never happened with her's. She makes learning fun and you actually get your money's worth when taking her class. She is strict at times, but trust me when I say, it dose help you in the long run. I would recommend her class if asked.

Sicre is the best professor I have ever had. It is easy to get an A if you do everything that is expected from you. She loves her students so if you ever have a problem, she will be there for you. But do NOT be late for her class because your grade will suffer, plus the pop quizzes are at the beginning of class. Like I said before, she is amazing!!

Professor Sicre is by far one of the greatest professors here at BMCC. She is awesome, I mean really awesome. The textbook is free on blackboard. Gives you great feedback on your speech outlines, if you need any help with something not related to her class she will be there for you. I would totally recommend her if you need to take SPEECH 100.

One of the best professors i've ever had. Has clear grading criteria, you'll know throughout the semester what you're getting and why you're getting them to improve yourself. She also gives you clear outlines to help on your speeches. And the best thing, No Textbook! Don't even bother paying for anything. Take her if you haven't done so yet!

Professor Sicre is a gem. Extremely clear as to what is expected. If you can do that you'll not only pass her class you'll get an A easily as well. She makes her lectures extremely fun and they are never boring. Let's you write speeches about what you want! She is by far my favorite professor so far in college and I recommend that you take her!!!!

If you are preparing to take this class be prepared for a lot of self help, assignment descriptions were extremely vague but yet they were graded on a strict rubric. Be aware that "dumb questions" do exist in this course and only take this course with this prof. if it's your last resort! Mega thumbs down on teaching styles, not approachable at ALL

Most of the people who gave professor Sicre a bad rating were all late on their assignment, their speeches were sloppy and seemed like they were put together last minute, they interrupted other student speeches by coming in late, and they just seemed like they didn't try. The prof. is there for you. There's no reason to not do well in her class.

First day I wanted to drop due to the syllabus but as time passed the work load was not too much nor as difficult as it seemed. U have to go see a play but you'll thank her for that. Projects were fun, especially the final project. Lots of quizzes but they're helpful for midterm/final. Def would take her again.

I took this class to avoid entering any other art classes, instead found a new interest in theatre. Seriously though, even if you have a hard time following the lesson, she has tons of resources left on blackboard for all the students to use. The only drawback is the amount of work you have to do, but honestly the work was fun and easy.

Dr. Sicre is truly amazing. She provides the class with a free online textbook. She is inspirational and the class loves and respects her. BUT be aware that she requires 6 speeches (much more than other professors) and gives a reading every class and quizzes you on it. Be prepared to do a lot of work but the quality of her class is the top notch.
