She is a really great! teacher, one of the best I've had so far. Animated and interesting. Everyone should take a speech communication class, extremely helpful for life. Keep up with the homework and you should get a good grade.
excellent professor. Take her class, you will love it.

This class was too easy, common sense stuff, really didn't need to study. She was fun to be around because she was always so happy, and you can tell she loves what she does.
she was very enthusiastic and creative. always fun to be around as long as you aren't late or disruptive
Very interesting class-She shows interesting perspectives and makes the class a lot of fun.
Mrs. Bennett is great! She's very upbeat and has the best laugh-it's infectious. :) Her class is interesting and you can tell she loves what she does. Tests are very clear cut and she never pulls any pop quizzes or surprise questions - what she teaches in classes is what you get tested on.
Great professor, very kind and helpful. Great class as well, learned a lot.
Fun class to attend and a great teacher. Laughs a lot. Online quizzes every week that are very easy. Exams are not too bad either.
Jaima is really understanding teacher. The book is a bit technical but she translates it well through her classes, makes it easier and intresting. Only thing to worry about is doing Online quizes, Portfolios and the exams. I've really learned alot in her class and thats because she cares !!!
Find a different teacher. Quizzes are easy but the portfolios are very technical, vague, and hard. Class was boring and not enough examples/ experiments to clarify the material.
Great Teacher. Keeps it interesting. Lots of opportunities to leave early as well. I got an A quite easily. Worthwhile to take her class.
good and fun teacher, makes the class kind of interesting.....plus she gives candy before each test..mmm mmm good :)
She is awesome. She loves the sublject material, and gets students involved in the class.
OMG I love this teacher she's so funny and always put me in a good mood. The class is very easy and it's really fun. Totally recommend taking her class.
Great teacher. Always has your best interest at heart. Goes out of her way to be helpful and accessible. Keep up on the Portfolios and Quizzes and you will do fine. One of my favorite teachers.
Great Class! A must teacher...you will suceed with her!
It was a very fun class and I learned a lot about interpersonal skills.
Great Teacher...Very Spiffy Dresser
She is great!!! She really likes to help students as much as she can....she is really great for freshman because she helps you out and lets you know the difference between highschool and college. I wish I could take her agian!!
I took her class this summer 2005 although she went over the material very fast, Online quizzes are kind of easy but not very difficult -true(false)! reading the books carefully then you will be fine. Portfolios are much easier than quizzes. Portfolio questions are all from the textbooks! Test are multiple choices and essays from the portfolios!
Definitely recommended. Easy instructor, hilarious, and just upbeat. Time goes fast in her class. Portfolios and tests are easy. Nothing hard about her class.
She's the best!
VERY EASY!!! she is a very nice teacher. She teaches you what you need to know and keeps you interested too. Online quizes are cool. Homework is very easy. You will learn alot and still have fun.

She's an awesome teacher, who keeps the class active and your mind stimulated...I had her for a 4 hour class and it seemed to go be faster than any hour long class I took.

she's really col- the tests r SO EASY! take this class.. it fits teh option 1 2 and 3 preps..
Comm 100 is a good class to attend if you're looking for some self realizations. Jaima is such a fun and enlightening teacher! she loves laughing. She enjoys what she does and helps students in any way she can. two thumbs up for her!
She is a grate instructor. She will help you as much as she can. She truly cares about her students. She has fun games to help you learn. The class flies by. You will learn alot and look at people in a different light.
she's a great teacher. All the things you learn are really interesting. Very easy to get an A. Her tests and quizzes are super easy. Take her!!
the class was easy. and she made it fun to come to and want to pay attention. I would recommend her. You have chapter quizzes online and they are straight from the book. Do good on those and do good on the portfolios and you basically have an A. Take her.
Great teacher! She is fun, easy, and you WILL get an A in the class if you just do the work, and study for the test. There isnt much work. The porfolios are cake, and studying for the test is easy. The online quizzes are VERY easy. She plays games in class like bingo, pictionary, etc, and even though these sound cheezy, you learn the material.
Really great teacher...great class to take in the summer. She made public speaking so easy and it was actually fun too!
Jeez, talk about an awesome professor. She made this class so much fun and easy, and if you just do the work you will do fine. And to top it all off, she's incredibly nice and such a happy person, puts you in a good mood.
AMAZING TEACHER! highly recommended. she makes class fun and enjoyable every time we met. her quizzes are easy!!
Alright I'm not the greatest student, but I manage to do well. This class is an A even with a bit of effort. Do the assignments, study a bit, and there you go. Best way to study though is by participating because you learn a lot from it and remember little things. She's way chill and loved being in her class. BENNETT KICKS ASS!
Jaima is the best teacher I have every had. Before this class I was terrified of public speaking but she made me actually enjoy it. This class is so fun too, even on days when I know I could have missed class I didnt want to. Everyone needs to take her!
Like most people I walked into Public Speaking class with trepidation. However Jaima is such a warm and energetic person that the tension quickly melts away. What a FUN class too! I learned so much about my classmates and their various topics, I was bummed when the class was over. I feel MUCH more prepared for any future public speaking now.
such a fun class! not to mention, you actually learn a thing or two. jaima makes you want to learn and makes you want to interact with the class. i def. recommend her... i took her over the summer, i couldnt imagine myself having that class a whole semester, even though it was fun. not too bad id say. TAKE HER!
I came into this class assuming that it wouldn't be that hard to get an A. However, after taking the four quizzes and studying for them, I found out that I have a B in the course. I study hard for the quizzes too. hm.. the semester doesn't look too good so far.
she was a good teacher. very funny at times. as long as you read the text you will be ok. on-line tests were easy. kind on hard on grading speeches.
Public Speaking: Take her, she is good. Caring, compasionate, knowledgable: Good educator. I have A.A.+ Bachelor's, now back for higher degree; with all those years, I grade her as one of my top 2 teachers:Fair,fun,not tricky: you study, do online quizzes, and give prepared speech: you will get A along with knowledge and fun. Enjoy your fun time.
Great Teacher. Recommended... take her class, its as good as public speaking will ever be :)
She is a great teacher, and realizes that when a person takes a class on public speaking, they are not perfect and still learning so she is VERY lenient in her grading (emphasis on very). The only thing about her is that she needs everyone to be polite to each other in order for the class to run smoothly. But overall easy class =].
Excellent Teacher!! She's understanding, fair and she makes you feel comfortable. You only have to do 3 speeches that she grades VERY easy on. There's quizes every week online that are simple if you read and 2 exams that if you go to review and took the quizes will be very simple. I hate public speaking, she made the class easy. Would Recommend!
she is a nice teacher. she is helpful to teach you how to speak in public. remember to shorten your speech, practice it as much as you can. she does not care about conten, she just care about eye contact, time for speech, speak clearly. i recommand her to any student who is afraid of this class. study hard for final and midterm, review your quizes.
she is kindof weird... she laughs alot even when things dont seem funny. she is very helpful if you go and ask her for help. not a hard class. she takes speeches very important. you will learn how to be a better speaker. i recommend her to anyone
She is really good at what she does. I used to hate giving oral presentations, but this class will make you significantly better and confident.By the second speech I had lost all nervousness. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS CLASS FOR EVERYONE. You'll need it at some point in life, and you won't have to sweat bricks anymore over presentations. Easy A too.
One of the best teachers i've ever had. Great personality, you can tell she loves what she does. the speeches can be a little nerve-wrecking at first but EVERY single person showed HUGE improvement since their first speech. I learned A LOT the class was well worth it. weekly online quizzes from a small handbook, 2 major exams, and 3 speeches.
She tells you exactly what she expects from you. She gives you everything you need to get an A on the test, and she does study sessions always. Nothing ever changes from the syllabus, just do the work!
Jaima runs a really great class. She comes off as loud and excited, really likeable. She is very clear about all assignments and always offers additional help to anyone who might need it. She makes speeches into an easy formula to follow; it was way less awkward than I expected. Attendence is mandatory bc she wants a full audience on speech days.
Very good teacher, one of the best at GWC.I recommend taking her class. Public speaking was hard for me in the past, now it's actually fun.
The best teacher in GWC. She really likes to teach and did very well.She makes sure you know the subject and had confidence to speak in front of the class.She's the best.
Mrs. Bennett is VERY strict. She runs her class like a mini concentration camp. Look for another teacher
Are you ready to be treated like a 1st grader? Then take Bennett's class. Don't arrive late and don't go to the restroom because you'll be lectured about distracting your classmates. She was out the first half of the semester so we had a sub. If I had started out with her I would have dropped her class within the first 10 minutes.
Jaima is one of the best teachers you could have for speech class. She teaches so that you will understand thoroughly and so that you will be confident in your work. Very approachable. Humorous. Nonjudgemental when it comes to speech topics... we had guy do an informative speech on Marijuana and she had nothing but positive feedback! LOL
Grades on attendance, and anal about everything else. This class is PAINFULLY boring. Things are explained so clearly that a first grader could understand them.. but I'm in college, not first grade. It's an easy A if you have the will power to sit through her class, but I don't know why you'd want to.
dont be fooled by all the good ratings she has folks because i sure was. jaima bennett is the true definition of easy teacher but bad teacher. she cannot teach at all. she has no skills in improving a student's weakness. if its not exactly her way, youll end with a bad grade. this is an easy class though to show that i am not being biased.
Jaima is the best.All you have to do is show up and do your speeches and it's an A.Textbook NOT required but would be help for 8 online quizzes.Really chill class.
She is the best teacher i have ever had. She is really helpful when it comes to speeches. You get 3 speeches and 8 quizzes online. A pretty easy class. Helps you overcome your fear of public speaking. Trust me!!!!! you wont have a heart attack. Take Jaima Bennett. Shes that good.Comm 110
It is a very easy class and if you like the big jolly dinosaur BARNEY then you will love her.. Other than that, do your work and don't miss too many classes and you should be alright
Fun class! Just make sure you do all your quizzes and your speeches.
People express their love and kindness in many different ways, Ms Jaima expresses her love through teaching students. She might seem a bit crazy to you, but she's only like that because she's passionate about what she does(teaching you). Teaching is a JOB to some, but to Jaima it's a JOY. Buckle up because you're going to learn a lot & laugh a lot.
Professor Bennett is one of the best professors I have ever had. She doesn't allow any negative comments about people's speeches; only positive feedback. She does a review for each test and the average test score was 140/150! Book is only $27 and you need it for online quizzes. Very easy A!
Mrs. Bennett is the best. I took her 4 week summer school class and it was a blast. 3 speeches. A couple mini talks. But is very reasonable, and will help you with whatever you need help on. TAKE HER!!!! sports friendly.
I was not looking forward to speech at all, but Jaima was an amazing teacher! She was positive, helpful, and encouraging! I am really happy that I ended up taking her! Also, attendance is mandatory, but this is not a boring class! The work load is not unreasonable either!
I think that she is one of the most inspiring teachers I have ever had! She makes the class fun, but also makes you learn so much! She always made me smile, and I loved her class! I wish all of my teachers were as great as her
As most people, I was dreading this class. But I actually loved this class. I ended with an A. This teacher makes public speaking so much fun! I recommend her to everyone. She is organized, clear, and helpful.
Prof. Bennett is a great teacher. She is always in a good mood. Always responds to my emails within hours. Very helpful teacher. Truly enjoys her job. Take her if you can!
Bennett is a great professor and will help you over come any fear of public speaking. This class is easy with 3 major speeches and quizzes from the book which is common sense. Take her and youll breeze through this class easily!
Jaima is a true gem! She genuinely loves her job and the students she interacts with. 3 speeches that you WILL be equipped to do well in, 2 piece of cake tests, 8 easy mini talks & 8 common sense quizzes. Jaima gives you tools to overcome your anxiety and become a great speaker. It is an easy class, yet you learn A LOT. TAKE HER! (great for summer)
Bennett's awesome. She may come off as strict the first few days, but i'm pretty sure that's part of doing her job. if you're a teacher, you have to display some level of strictness otherwise your students would probably just end up walking all over you. only 3 major speeches, cheap textbook, quizzes were mostly common sense.
Jaima Bennett is an amazing teacher. She is very clear. You will always know what is expected. Awesome and fun learning style..and you WILL learn! She creates a very calm, welcoming and kind environment in the classroom. Take her!! I have not had a better college professor.
She is the best teacher. She is awesome, clear. The class is not that hard, attendance is really important. She is really really helpful. Take her class if you can!
I am an international student and i do recommend this class. So helpful~~ She has patience with me although my English is not good enough.
This class was not my first choice, but I am very glad I took it. You learn a lot about yourself as well as public speaking. Good teacher to take if you aren't a good public speaker, she grades easy on the speeches and the midterm and final are all vocab.
Favorite teacher that I have had yet in Communications. She is very well-spoken, funny, and very informative. She made my first public speaking class feel such at ease. Very approachable, friendly teacher. She is very straight forward, and as long as you pay attention to her lectures, her exams will be very simple. Very highly recommended!!
She is very fair with her students, If you are freaked out by public speaking, but have to take it I suggest you take her class! Her class is very good a creating a calm environment for those who suck at public speaking. Plus she gives u lots of time to prepare for your speeches.
If your terrified of public speaking, take her. She makes the environment very relaxed and easy to speak in. She is an easy grader for speeches. Weekly quizzes online that are easy, and 2 exams that are pretty much on vocab. 3 speeches that arent that difficult. TAKE HER (:
Jaima may come as a bit intimidating during the first 3 classes(a lot of drops), but it benefits you because the classroom setting is smaller. Presentations are short.2 Exams (bingo review), weekly quizzes,3 speeches, a couple of in class assignments that are easy. Welcoming environment
Jaima was a great teacher for Public Speaking. I absolutely hated public speaking but she made the experience actually enjoyable! You have three main speeches, around 3 quizzes a month, a midterm, and then a final. You will need to buy the 2 books but they are rather inexpensive. TAKE HER. You won't regret it. No reason you shouldn't get an A.
Mrs. Bennet is extremely helpful. I thought this class was easy; didn't even need the book all that much, no matter how good or poorly you're doing in school this class shouldn't be a problem. Attend class and definitely listen to the lectures, it really helps with the midterm and final (go to the reviews)! Outline isn't hard.

Teacher is very easy and grades on an easy scale. The books are only used to take online quiz and exams. However, she does have a sense of humor that can be a bit of a annoyance. Overall, she is very nice and the quizzes are easy.
Best teacher! Easy A if you do all the assignments and follow outlines for speeches. She really wants all her students to pass. She tells you exactly what will be one tests and reviews a lot. This is how all teachers should be!
This teacher is great. She is super helpful and explains everything. Makes class fun. Goes above and beyond.
She helped me so much to get over my fear of public speaking. The class is very straightforward--do your work and show up and you should have no problem getting an A. It's a great class because it teaches you real world skills. Bennett is incredible, but she doesn't take crap from anyone. She deserves everyones respect.
very nice and makes public speaking bearable. as long as you show up to class (attendance points), do the small amount of reading like twice a month and follow her basic instructions on speeches you should get a good grade. she is super helpful and approachable. the quizzes and tests are all straight forward andshe creates a welcoming environment
I have severe anxiety when it comes to public speaking but I actually grew to love this class! Professor Bennett makes sure that the environment is very warm and friendly. There are 3 speeches, which she will completely prepare you for. There are also 9 quizzes, a midterm, and a final, which are all fairly easy. I highly recommend this class!
Taking this class at first was nerve wrecking. Now that the semester ending, looking back it is a piece of cake! There are three major speeches: process, informative, and persuasive. There are two tests which are fairly easy. She reviews what is expected a class before. In addition, there are 9 quizzes you have to take online, hence the textbook.
This professor made public speaking amazing! I was afraid to talk in front of people but she made the semester bearable. Would defiantly recommend for students who don't like public speaking. There are three major presentations, and a couple of mini talks, but its very clear what she wants from her students! Great professor
Don't take the class if you want to learn at a college level. Professor Bennett is nice and all, but she teaches and treats the class like a bunch of fifth graders. Her lectures are common sense.
