Excellent teacher, makes the content interesting. She encourages questions and tries to get everyone to understand what's being said before she moves on to the next thing.
IN THE BEGINNING, SHE COMES ACROSS EASY - BUT SHE TOUGHENS UP AS THE CLASS GOES ON. SHE IS A VERY NICE LADY, BUT DON'T TAKE HER FOR GRANTED, SHE KNOWS HER STUFF AND WILL STICK YOU WHERE IT HURTS IF YOU TRY TO PLAY HER.
She is young, fun and easy going. If you pay attention, do the assigned work, and participate you will recive an A. Really enjoyed this class and what she had to say.
Professor Panzer is a good teacher she is very clear and funny, Yes she does come off as a teacher who is easy and you could walk all over, but boy did she surprise me and others in class.She is a good teacher i had her for non-verbal just do the work, read, and pay attention.
she is really good.....the only thing is that she gives alot of work.....she is very honest.....she is funny and cool...overall i enjoyed her class
She is young and funny.Her class is interesting just come to class.Just so you know, she talks about her life story alot and compares them to the notes/terms. Also if there is a paper due do it, but the draft she won't check.She will tell you that you have to do it (won't check). Take her class you won't regret it.
Wonderful professor. She is extremely caring. Her willingness to share stories from her life are designed to incorporate what she is teaching. She tries to give each student an understanding of the material and how it affects their life. Would tell every student to take her course.
possibly the greatest teacher ive ever had... amazing personality, very helpful, and very intresting.... take her class.... you wont regret it
the best professor ive ever had, shes young, fun, and interesting. she makes the class enjoyable even if its not something your into. not alot of work and shes very clear on how to do it. as long as you do your work you will definitely do well, i loved her class .TAKE HER SHES GREAT.
This Lady is wonderful... She always kept it interesting. The papers were challenging but at the end of the day everyone in my class loved her. I have never left a class knowing everyone and she made you become fast friends.
nice professor.
i didnt like her at all. if you dont enjoy speaking and opening up to the whole class she thinks you dont care about the class.gives a lot of weird, useless assignments and thinks everybody should be as enthusiastic about comm. as she is.
She is an amazing teacher she gets really into the class and makes it fun to learn the material. i recommend taking this class with her... tests are not hard if u pay attention in class and u will if u take it with her!! best part is u dont have to give oral presentations. ur on a volunteer basis (and u most likely will raise ur hand)...great class
I LOVED THIS TEACHER. SHE IS MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE. SHE IS AMAZING AND REALLY CARES ABOUT HER STUDENTS. IF YOU NEED EXTRA HELP YOU CAN ALWAYS EMAIL HER. SHE MAKES THE CLASS FUN. I WOKE UP IN THE MORNING SMILING JUST BECAUSE I KNEW I HAD PUBLIC SPEAKING THAT DAY.
Energetic Professor, over qualified to teach at Nassau. Change is hard, this class helps you become a better speaker step by step. Only 3 speeches,absolutely no textbooks usage. Highly Recommended class...
she is in your face. its like painful therapy. i didnt go there to share my life problems and i shouldnt have to.
I love her! She is truly understanding and a amazing professor. Her class is not that easy, but if you work on your assignments you will get an A. She is fun!
She told at the start of the semester that she wanted us to all be friends and say hi to each other. The semester is over and a lot of us do talk to each other outside the classroom. she is a great prof. take her, you wont be disappointed.
Hi Professor.I love you.Your boyfriend is one lucky man!now i know why he fall for you.Take her class she is nice very outgoing and sweet as candy
Hi Professor.I love you.Your boyfriend is one lucky man!now i know why he fall for you.Take her class she is nice very outgoing and sweet as candy.she is so down to earth and wants everyone to feel comforable in her class.
Yep Professor panzer is soo sweet as pie.She is so caring and warm and really wants to make sure everyone understands the lessons in class.I'm taking her summer class now.Take her in summer you won't have that much work.:wink:wink:I love you.
Professor panzer is a cute cupcake.her personality is like strawberry frosting sugary sweet.She always smiles.And because of her i realize I'm better of without my ex boyfriend.i learn communication is the key and leaving the retionship when both people tried their best to work it out.That what happen to me.Take her class.She is so open and honest.
What is wrong with you people.Don't take her class.She barely lets her students finish what they want to say.I think she favors some kids while ignoring the other students.If you take her class you would see what I mean.Thank god i only had her last spring semester.
I love professor panzer.I realize I don't need my ex anymore after taking her class. I just wish she understood my retionship with my ex, but i don't wanna bother her with that.she's sweet and very nice and has enough to worry about.This is one class you should take over the summer.I love you more than anyone in this world!
alot of papers to write for this stupid class. im sick of her. she always talks about her fiance. it has been only 2 months but she already told us 40 times that she will get married in summer. cut it out woman..sick of u.
She is such a good prof...i loved her class..really fun and interesting..one of the best..she is so nice...
SHE IS THE BEST!I love this professor and I have nothing bad to say about her.She makes you feel comfortable in the class and she makes the class fun!Her work is easy if you pay attention and you don't really need the textbook.You mainly use her notes.She is just an overall great teacher and im going to take her a second semester.PANZER!WOO!
Wow she is awesome and the best Prof Ever for Public Speaking...easy class I saw some people in my class W, you really fail at life if you get a W or fail public speaking....it is easy as pie Thanks for the A Prof :P
Wow she is awesome and the best Prof Ever for Public Speaking...easy class I saw some people in my class W, you really fail at life if you get a W or fail public speaking....it is easy as pie Thanks for the A Prof :P
pretty,interesting,and extremely concerned with students welfare, got 2 luv her
She's good, keeps it real. You get what you put in. Can be tough at times but she is really helpful and fun! At first I dreaded the class, but now I'll really miss it.
perfect
Really cool, she stated over and over, it's a good class, but it's work, and it is. But she gives us enough time to do most of it, quizzes are easy, speeches are fun and comfortable, and she equally critiques us all.
Everyone should take this class.
honestly, panzer is in my top 3 of best teachers ever. i was so nervous to take any com class before this cause im so shy but she makes everyone feel so comfortable. everything u learn is SO interesting and applies to everyone. i find myself WANTING to do the work for this class, which has never happened to me. i wish she taught all of my classes
worst teacher i ever had. for a commuincations teacher she should learn how to communicate better with her students.
3 credit course with a 5 credit workload. A lot of work required. Class is setup to start too slow and then have work pile up. She's a very nice person and extremely helpful. She definitely cares for all her students and wants everyone to do well. Even if you don't like her, you have to respect her passion for her field and the way she teaches it.
I HATED PUBLIC SPEAKING before i took this class! if youre good at writing its really easy, if not but you put in the effort she'll help you and you can still get an A. its all about effort and improvement as a speaker...and thats about it! just show up, write your speeches and show some effort/improvement. + she likes her class to have fun
She will tell you how amazing you are every class and still give you such a horrible grade. Makes things so much more difficult than it has to be. Very unorganized and messy. Does not teach much technique or anything useful, just makes you deliver speeches and sort things out for yourself.
PANZER is the bomb!
This was one of my favorite classes this semester! She's definitely interesting. I really like her teaching style and different methods she incorporates in her teaching. She does make you do work but gives help if you ask. She definitely pushes you to do your best and if you do your work you'll get an A for sure! If you take this class you'll have fun but also expect work, but the work isn't so terrible. It's college people!
She is an amazing professor. She makes you interested in the subject and has interesting projects. Her papers are hard but she's very helpful and makes sure you don't get a bad grade. There was a lot of socializing and laughter in the classroom and was easily the best class of the semester
Prof Panzer was delightfully challenging. Her class was motivational and interesting as well as useful for daily life. Anybody who doesn't like her obviously is just a lazy student. She is very fair, helpful, and a sweetheart!
she was by far the best teacher i have ever had at NCC. You will want to go to her class everyday because of the life-lessons and interesting information you will pick up. shes a great professor and she truely cares about her students and their best interest.take her class, you wont regret it.
She is the best Professor I have ever had at any college. She keeps things interesting and I loved going to her class each day. HIGHLY recommended.
Nassau Community College...One of the most caring and passionate professors I have ever had. It isn't easy to find professors so invested in their students. The course was incredibly interesting and professor Panzer was inspiring and engaging.
She is really nice and becomes a friend during class. She makes class interesting and we sit in a circle which makes it inviting to meet everyone in class. You get to leave class with friends which is always nice. She's the best. Take her, plus you get to do a group project based on a movie.
I admit before I took her class, I hated the fact that I had to take a Communications course for my major. It was never my thing. Now that the semester is over, not only am I a better communicator, but I am taking more Comm courses! And I made a bunch of friends in the class. And it was all thanks to Prof. Panzer's amazing teaching skills!
I loved her! Awesome professor. She really connects with her students and makes the whole environment of being in a class room so much fun. She offers extra credit, uses the text book a lot, 1 test, 2 papers and 2 presentations. Overall its a easy class and shes a huge help! Definitely take Mrs. Panzer!
Great teacher. Makes you just get up and do it, and with public speaking it is the best way to learn. Fun class, learned a lot of useful stuff. The lecture section is kinda dull and unnecessary, but oh well. Lot of work though, and practice is key.
If you ever have the opportunity to take this professor for public speaking, do it. She is very helpful and will make suggestions that will help you improve on your outline and delivery. She is very kind and her class is always a lot of fun; and this is coming from someone who took a summer class!
She is nice, but she is very contradicting. we did not use blackboard, nor did we use the text book... DONT BUY IT! she is very repetitive, what made the class fun was the students that were there. they were hysterical. outlines are a drag
Not only is she beautiful to look at the class is awesome. she makes me earn that A. You have to put in the work to do well & enjoy yourself, speak up speak your mind & she'll work with you. Enjoy the class idk about her public speaking class I heard she's more strict but com 101 you cant go wrong with panzer
Worst teacher I have ever had. Rude, inconsiderate, picks on people in class. Her grading is ridiculous and makes no sense. Contradicts herself all the time. I advise everyone to stay away from her.
Shes honestly the greatest person you will ever meet, but gives alot of work and is honest from the beginning telling you that its ALOT of work. once you follow her outline and do it exactly how she wants it. its up to you to deliver on the speech. Overall loved her class and hope you take her because she used to teach at NYU and very well round
Very Great professor, loved being in her class but you must be honest because she will catch you if your not. A lot of work and keep its honest about it from the beginning and gives you the outline and how she wants it done. Just do it how she wants and you shall be fine. if you want a good teach this is her
she was pretty nice, but does pick on people to try and get them involved. for a com101 class she expects too much. and her grading system is terrible, you either recive an A on an assignment or an F , nothing in between. would seriously not encourage anyone taking her class due to there is much better teachers at nassau who teach this class.
Proffessor was wonderful! I absolutely recommend her. She wants her students to pass with high grades and will pull the work out of you if need be. She expects you to do you're work as well after all were in college. NO FREEBIES! She makes the class fun to attend as well. FINAL PROECT MIGHT SEEM HARD BUT ONCE YOU'RE INTO IT YOULL PASS IT!!!!
If you're the type of person that doesn't like presentations &participating in class DO NOT take her. Participation is a huge part of your grade &she always wants you to speak in front of the class &share personal stuff even though its not a public speaking class. Way too much work for a comm class and she is all over the place with what she wants
She requires a bit of participation, and you'll probably end up with a better grade, as well as getting along with her better if you do so.
very hard class. very complicated feels like were preparing to become professional speakers. too hard on grading and too demanding.
She's a great teacher! Makes you work really hard and good grades don't come easy. But she is always there to work with you and make you a better public speaker. Her lectures were really good and she made the class into a family and we all worked together to make each other better public speakers. I definitely recommend Professor Kilmnick!
If you do not take this class you will fail at life. Panzer is strict on deadlines, straightforward on her assignments and crystal clear on her syllabus. You won't find a Professor that is as beautiful in and out as her. The class overall teaches and empowers students to face the real world and how to conduct yourself in the moment in real life..
Very short Homework. good research paper on a movie. Great Midterm. Amazing Final Project. Kilmnick is clear to the point. She does pick on random students if you are zoning out or decided to text all class. Bad habits for college anyway Kilmnick is very straight forward and a fun professor to learn from and she is so hot it. Respect the classroom
Prof. Panzer saved my semester. Do the work, participate and you'll get an A. One test and two papers. Easy class overall, inspiring and helpful person and you'll learn a lot. TAKE HER!
BEST PROFESSOR BUT IF YOU DO NOT LIKE PUBLIC SPEAKING DO NOT TAKE HER.
She is never organized, and all over the place.
Horrible professor not understanding and very unorganized.
She is VERY unclear at all times. Her assignments do not make sense at all and she won't explain them properly. She will talk forever about nothing. She will always bring up her other classes. I don't recommend her for this course. Writing assignments were a large part of this class and they will confuse you like crazy. Don't take her for this one.
Professor Panzer-Kilmnick was by far my favorite professor I ever had! She is such a down to earth, caring, inspiring women. She's very clear with what she wants from her class & participation means everything! I'll definitely be taking her in the future; she is absolutely amazing!!!
Fantastic professor! The tag "Participation Matters" is no exaggeration, she WILL call you out, if you're quiet. Focuses mostly on written assignments, with a movie research paper, and a group presentation as a final. 3-strike attendance policy. Definitely makes the class fun, I can't recommend her enough.
This is not an easy A. You will work hard in this class. If you think you're good at speaking, you're probably not. But don't worry, because you'll learn how to EARN this A by the end of the semester. She gives you everything you need in order to get the A you want. You will know everyone's name by the end of the class and be friends with them all.
just an amazing, caring, down to earth professor! she brings the class together
Read the comments on here and expected her to be a good teacher. Took her over the winter break and did NOT like her class at all. She gets very annoying, and her sarcasm is too much at times. Wouldn't Take her.
Claims 2 be understanding-only if you're her favorites! Dont show up late, don't be quiet, yells at ONLY certain people for texting, tries to be your friend, wants students to think of her as cool, unfair with grading-took off points for things she noted on others and didn't take off for them, expects too much, STRESSFUL, DONT BOTHER WITH HER!
It was really refreshing to have a professor that pushed all her students to be the best they could be. Some may feel she's unfair but I truly feel, being one of the more outspoken ones in class, that she pushes everyone to carry their own weight. Your hard work will not go unnoticed. There's no skating by in this class.
Prof Panzer (Kilmnick) has more issues than the NY times, you'll either love her or drop. Says class is performance based but will give a good speech a failing grade. Don't mention God in her presence ever. Peers evaluations don't matter at all. Extra Credit doesn't matter either. If she ain't like what you wearing, your speech fails. Don't Do IT!
Her grading system is based on improvement so each speech she expects to be better than your last. If you don't care to put in the work, she'll catch on and you won't do as well. The effort you put into the class is exactly the grade you get. She is one of my favorite professors at NCC for pushing my shy self to be a better public speaker.
Professor Kilmnick will change you for the better at the end of each class. She has inspired me to be more open, social and happy with my life. She loves to joke around and her lectures are never boring. She plays games in class and let's everyone open up about who they are. As classmates we really got to know each other u won't regret it take her!
She was a great professor, alit tough when it comes to working on outlines but the class is very fair and is graded on your improvement. You could fail the first speech but if you work hard and show your trying and improve your speaking, she will give you the A. If you take her just know you have to work for your grade. Favorite teacher thus far.
She is so awesome. Best professor I've had so far at NCC. I always looked forward to her class. You have the opportunity to open up and I learned at least one fact about every student by the end of the semester because of all the class discussions and projects. Definitely one of my favorite classes.
Best professor I've had so far, she's so amazing. I'm honestly gonna miss her class. It was that good. She helps you with your outlines and helps you grow as a person. She is a professor who truly cares about her students. You won't regret taking her
The absolute best professor Ive ever had. Very fair grading and understanding with any problem you bring to her attention. She truly does care and will help you grow and succeed not only as a student but as a person. I made so many friends in her class and will miss it a lot. You wont regret having her as a professor!
I loved her! Up until the final project. She runs a really chill class. I had her at 4 PM this semester, and I loved her so much. You won't regret taking her; she's awesome!
awesome teacher but a even better person she cares for her students i must say she truly is one of a kind you just have to do the work
Professor Kilmnick was a REALLY great professor! I loved her teaching styles. She really helped her students. She sent emails that helped us better with our assignments. She was a very nice person. I would definitely recommend her to anybody.
PROFESSOR K!!!! is the BEST PROFESSOR EVER!!! She is very easy going, however make sure you do have all your class notes , participate do all of your assignments and you'll do fine!!! She's such a sweetheart she cares for her students she pushes you to be great. She helped me personally always gives great feedback! Def recommend taking her!!! :-)
Professor Kilmnick truly cares about her students, and wants them to become better speakers. However, you have to work for your grade, such as participating and doing the two papers she assigns. Although this was not an easy A, she was an amazing professor and she made me feel more comfortable with myself. Im really glad I had her as a professor.
I didnt really understand her work & when I tried getting help she didnt really help as much
I don't think I ever cried so much in a class before and that is a positive. This class was truly life changing. Take her you won't regret it.
overall this teacher is nice but can be very hard on you & switch up. theres 2 long papers in this class, she gives a month for one & 2 weeks for the other paper. attendance is big, shes makes some classes mandatory & if you dont show up you can lose 100 points. missing a single class feels like youre behind the whole semester in this class
Probably one of the best Professors in Nassau ever. There is nothing else I can say but TAKE HER. You will not regret taking this class. She helps you so much and you learn a lot. I've taken two classes with her Public Speaking was my favorite with her. By the end of the class I really felt I got a lot better at speaking to people.
Definitely one of the best professors at Nassau. The class was very interactive between students and alot of times we just had discussions for the majority of class. She did a good job teaching the actual coursework. Her papers and tests are fair and as long as you get them in on time you will he fine. Overall a very fun class.
This has been by far the best communication class I have taken. It was the best 5 weeks of my life. With her class you much meet deadlines as the summer classes go by quick. Not only was this a course of communication but felt like a life lesson for everyone in that class. She is the sweetest and most compassionate teacher you could ever ask for.
took this course summer and it was one of my best decisions. She gave great feedback, helping to make sure everyone was improving. Attendance is mandatory. outlines were straightforward; easy A if u submit everything on time and put in the effort. She gave chances for extra credit. you can tell she cares about her students. i highly recommend
She gives very specific guidelines with everything you need to be successful in her class. If you turn in everything on time and listen to her when she corrects your mistakes- you can't fail. She is extremely passionate about what she does, and she cares deeply about the success and happiness of her students. I would absolutely recommend her.
Amazing professor, you can tell she loves her job and what she teaches, very understanding about students having a life outside of school. I enjoyed this class and her as a person, truly an incredible professor. I will say if you are a shy person, you will have to talk at some point, but you can still get a B+ even if you don't participate.
