Coco is frustrating. Almost no point to show up for class except to bump up your attendance points. Gives very little real instruction and spends most of her time trying to argue her liberal views onto a very captive audience. If you're a speech major, I don't think she leaves you well prepared.

Teaches real world way of speech giving, as a 100 class should. Keeps it simple but you learn a lot. Her lectures are clearer than the book. She speaks to the class the way she wants you to speak. Very understanding of nervousness, and teaches you how to alleviate it. If you are too sensitive don't take her class. She is honest but not offensive.

Overall she is a very sweet teacher who loves to interact with her students. She likes to learn about her students and ask questions. Uniqueness is a helpful feature to have when making speeches for her class. She is a challenging grader. If you don't practice your speeches, you will struggle. There is a textbook, but you can pass without using it.

I absolutely dreaded public speaking before this. I attempted twice before and chickened out after the first day. Felicia was super warm, welcoming and supportive. The outlines are clear and not hard to follow. Speeches are easily adaptable to your own interests and helps a lot. If you need to take this class like I did take it with her for sure.

you must attend class to pass, even if there is no speech due. she cares about students and makes sure everyone is respected in her class. tests are open book, she is a tough grader when it comes to speeches. she enforces the no cell phone while watching other students conduct their speech. glad I took her class, it helped!

Super entertaining and fun! Class revolves around multiple papers and speeches but she makes them fun and the topics are picked by you. Rarely fully lectures but you should read the book to past the tests (open book though!) but most of it is basic knowledge (easily get a B).

Ms. Coco is by far my favorite teacher at OCC. Dry sense of humor. I took her for Interpersonal Communication instead of Public Speaking. You will NEED the textbooks for exams and make sure you stay up to date on your reading. Homework is minimal but don't miss any of the assignments. Easy A if you show up and do the work.

Felicia Coco is one of the best professors I have taken in the past two years that I have been at Orange Coast. Coco is clear and descriptive when assigning work such as homework, in class assignments, and exams. The class has taught me effective communication skills and I would highly recommend this professor and course to anyone!

I took the class this summer. As a speech class with several presentations, you have to be there. Do the chapter examples and practical application assignments and you will do well. There are 3 exams, and 1 group presentation. She is fair, nice and understanding. She is one of the better teachers I have had at OCC. I recommend her to all.

Took Felicia's class over the summer. Definitely a lot of assignments to complete but nothing too difficult. Lots of informal presentations (personal experiences and practical applications from media), 1 big group project, open-book exams. I really liked the classroom environment we developed over the 8 weeks. Still friends with some classmates!

Lots of homework

this class is not fun for nonverbal communication. I would not recommend it unless you enjoy doing critical thinking writing. she is really slow at grading the paper. but she is thonly teacher in OCC that teaches cost 170. You will need textbook for homework and be prepared for 3 tests. 4 chapters for one test worth 100 points. don't take her!

This class was so much fun! Coco is a great professor and is very funny. I would say participating during group discussions is the key to succeeding in this class. The assignments arent heavy as long as you dont procrastinate. The papers are fun to write and her structure is very easy to follow and helps you stay organized.

Her class is pretty easy. You show up, participate, discuss about the chapter, and done. But her problem lies on giving feedback. I could've gotten an A, but she just sucks at giving feedback especially on the discussion posts. Shes probably a lot better in person though.

Prof Coco was a really enjoyable prof. The class is fairly easy. You have to read through the book, write discussions, take little quizzes, and discuss in class. I hate participating, but it's a super comfortable environment and made presentations less stressful. However; it's an interpersonal comm class, so get ready to talk a lot about yourself.

I loved taking Prof Coco for interpersonal communication. A lot of the work we did was discussions about the textbook that we read, or presentations in small groups. It was over zoom so she required everyone to have their cameras on. It was probably the only online class I've taken so far that felt like a real classroom.

Honestly the best professor I've ever had, this class is really simple the most you have to do is show up listen to the lectures, take some notes, do the discussions, take the quizzes, and tests. It's great because the tests and quizzes are online and low pressure. There are a lot presentations but I feel its best to get out of your comfort zone.

I hate public speaking, so I was dreading this class. (I took her during Zoom) However, this class was not stressful at all. We'd take quizzes and exams outside of class. During class, we'd discuss portions of the textbook or present a project. All the projects were VERY easy! This is an easy A as long as you do the assignments and skim the book.

I took Professor Coco's nonverbal comm class, and she without a doubt one of top-tier professors Ive had the pleasure of learning from. Regular attendance and active participation are all you need to score a solid A. Course isnt stressful, it includes some fun group work. It's primarily about understanding concepts and engaging in fun activities.

Very easy class with weekly quizzes and discussions, a few (easy) papers, a few (easy) presentations, and a final. This class is very interesting and fun, in class we just discuss our lives. The only way I could see this class being difficult is if you are constantly late and skip a lot. Attendance is important! Professor is very funny and nice.

I took the hybrid class, and it was overall a good class. Attendance is key, as she takes participation points away. You have one free miss, with a 20-point deduction after that. Usual hw includes a quiz and discussion revolving around the chapter. There were 3 papers, had to summarize an idea from a previous chapter. 2 in class presentations.

Coco's class is great and super fun and easy! It is a communications class, so you'll be interacting with your classmates a lot, but it honestly created a nice and friendly environment which was relaxing (coming from an introvert). Its flipped classroom style, with assignments due at the end of most weeks. they're really easy though. Take her!

Professor Coco had one of the biggest impacts on my life. I was anxious about college as a freshman but Professor Coco taught me to enjoy school and to have fun learning. I grew out of my comfort zone and became a great public speaker later on in her class. Even still to this day, I use what she has taught me in my everyday life.

She's super nice and funny! Presentations are honestly so easy. Only thing is, she considers you tardy if you walk in one second late after she begins class, which wasn't great, as it marks points off your grade. She is a pretty harsh grader and doesn't leave feedback.
