Really good teacher, funny too!

Take him! He is so funny and makes the class so interesting!

This guy is so tight!! its the only class i actually dont mind attending! laid back and has great stories that actually apply to what we are learning. take him!

He is so nice and it actually a cool class. He makes the class a lot of fun and he's willing to work with you

Great teacher. As long as you do the work and do okay on the essay exams, you'll be fine.

Nice guy.He truly cares about his students.He really tries to make his class interesting and pleasant.I thought this class was going to be horrible-turned out to be one the best that I have taken in the 2 years I have been at this school.Even though the days and time is horrible for my schedule-I am taking another class from him-he's worth it!

Ok teacher, but I don't think he is University material. He should be teaching High School at best.

One of the best teachers at CSUCI

Only easy if you are willing to try new things. He is very funny and entertaining. You will enjoy him as a professor

funny guy but he tells the same stories over and over again.

fun class, good if you dont actually like public speaking. Only 4 in class speaches, and a few easy tests. But you learn a lot and its a lot of fun.

This class, although at times it is pretty boring, is exciting and we play charades, who could ask for more?!

Definately a good teacher. Opportunity to be creative in your presentations and much freedom to make mistakes and LEARN!

Yudelson's got a great sense of humor and he's a smart guy. He was also VERY understanding when I had conflicts. He's a little unorganized sometimes as far as grading, but he grades fairly. Lots of extra credit opportunities and easy tests. You can gain a lot from this class if you take it seriously. It's hard to see why people wouldn't like him!

This is a university. You can't expect to write a high school level paper and get a decent grade. If you don't do well on a paper, he let's you rewrite. What more do you want? No tests, but several papers. Want to learn something? Read, study, listen, duh!! Nice, funny, easy going. Get to know him, he's a nice person!!

Yudelson makes the class fun. you dont just sit there and listen to him talk. he urges you to speak your mind and he pretty much lets you say whatever you want. the only thing negative that i have to say is that he plays the woe as me game. yudelson if you read this... you are a cool dude, be confident and proud!!!

funny, goofy kind of guy, that's really nice and helpful. Sometimes he doesn't know exactly what he assigned due when.

He is great. He tries hard and is passionate about the subject. Your the man JY.

I enjoyed his classes. I don't know why so many people don't.

Really not as bad as some say. He does not give tests, just one group project. You have two simple assignments due each week. They are fun and help get you extra points. He can be a bit sarcastic/mean. He was very organized in our class and was always willing to talk if you feel like you weren't graded fairly. He gave a lot of good job/careeradvice

GREAT PROFESSOR AND BETTER PERSON. VERY SMART.

He was a great teacher, if you do the weekly assignments and participate in class you will do OK. He allows you to choose how you want to be graded based on percentiles at which % you want hw, group project, and individual project to be graded...I would recommend him..."Like"

Yudleson is the man he can still get down.. it just takes him longer to get up. He's super chill

I learned a lot from this class,the readings n assignments were very helpful. Hes a fair grader so long as youre a fair student.Many students go in there putting him down because of things they've heard.He doesn't deserve it. He is a great guy and easy to get along with. Some people try to slack off all semester then wonder why they failed.

This is a critical thinking course. Some seniors still lack ability to think critically and write properly, and expect step by step instruction. He cannot think for you or write your papers. He is very helpful at office hours. He does not take attendance, but tracks participation. The work is fairly easy as long as you put thought into it.

Amazing lectures. By far the best and most important class I have taken in college. Its real world business communication. YOU NEED TO TAKE THIS CLASS! ! ! ! You will learn so many real world problem solving strategies. This is the class you wish you could have taken in high school. All other negative reviews are bs.

Professor Yudelson is very lecture heavy but makes the lectures fun. For Comm 200, you get a homework assignment due at the end of every week and there are only two tests. If you do the homework and pay attention during lectures, you should be fine.

Currently in this class and loving it. Lectures are informative & entertaining and often hilarious. My friends and I haven't missed a class so far. The book is good and the chapters are short, quick to read and understand. Dr. Yudelson is more than fair about homework expectations, grading. Do the work/know the theories by heart to ace the midterm.

JY is the best. Amazing lectures is an understatement. I couldn't imagine trying to learn so many Comm theories with any other prof. Would definitely take him again.

I enjoyed this class. Readings were quick and easy, and lectures were both helpful and entertaining. Make sure you buy the book and read the chapters before class to get the most out of the lectures. Yudelson lets you order older versions of the textbook to save money. Be careful on the midterms. Multiple choice can be tricky, so know the theories.

Good professor but be sure to study for tests. He always makes jokes about rating him with the chili pepper, so here's to him.

Honestly, John is a super solid human being as well as a solid professor. He's funny and relatable and I enjoyed his class a lot. You definitely need the book to do well on the homeworks. He's always open and happy to talk to you about anything and he's a goofy guy who tries to make his course as enjoyable as possible. Highly recommend.

Had him for two classes now and I really cool Prof. Super down to earth and has goofy old man humor to him which makes the class funny. Homeworks have always been pretty straight forward, do them and you pass half the class. In both classes he has given extra credit options to make up homeworks aswell.

Prof. John is really cool. He's funny and uses a lot of self-deprecating humor to try to get the class to laugh. He recognizes that not everyone likes public speaking and tries to make it fun or more bearable for his students. I would definitely recommend him.

I was so scared to take a communications class because I am literally allergic to public speaking, but it was easy-going! There's 3 in class speeches and 1 out of class that you can do in another Professor's class. Everyone does review sheets on you too. The first 2 speeches are 6-8 minutes, and the third is 3-4 mins. No dressing up required!

Professor Yudelson is absolutely hilarious and I couldn't have imagined taking public speaking with a different professor. He makes you feel confident within yourself & comfortable to speak in front of everyone. Although the class itself was relatively easy, he does grade harshly. We also never ended up needing the textbook that he had us purchase.

Ive taken two classes with him now. Just buy the textbook, do your homework and youll pass!! He can be a bit sarcastic and confusing, but if you can get past that his class is so easy!! You dont even have to show up, you just have to do the work which is why getting the textbook is so important.

COMM 200 is a semi-easy class. I used the textbook and lecture notes for the homeworks and always got full credit. The midterm and final were a bit challenging. If you do all the homework, it'll save ur grade.

I took this professor for Strategic Communication and loved his class. There is a big project you have to do, as well as homework weekly. He helps out a lot though! has great feedback and good stories too

Took COMM-200 during the time of COVID and he was by far my most understanding professor. Kept up with office hours and extended due dates when it seemed students were struggling. Before classes were canceled we did have a HW assignment weekly, it's not so much hard as it is just a lot, especially if you wait (like I did). Textbook is great though!

READ THE TEXTBOOK. That is all :)

Professor Yudelson is amazing. He wants his students to really learn about the theories in communication and does this by using real-life examples when explaining the theories. He is hilarious and truly wants the bests for his students. Do your homework and make sure to show that you understand the topic with examples in your life.

Professor JY tells funny stories from real life that serve as examples to illustrate a comm theory. Read the chapters in advance, go to lectures, do the assignments. It's not that hard to get an A in this class if you read & go to class: lectures relate to the chapters. Book is helpful. Homework = explain the theory, then tie it to an example IRL.
