Lacey is the best professor I've ever had! She's new to the campus and I'm so thankful I had her for this class! She's so sweet and genuine and one of the funniest people I've ever met. I've learned so much from this course and would definitely take it again. Not too much work either, just enough to learn the material!

I have mixed feelings. She is a very kind, sweet lady. She is very funny too. However, She does grade tough, but with that being said she is always open for help. She reminds students at the end of every class that she is available to help. You do have to work for your grade but she is a good teacher.

Professor Brown is someone who you can be very comfortable around, which is perfect for a class where you have to do public speaking. She wants you to succeed outside of class with projects that are useful in the real world but are simple to do. Her feedback on your speechs are also very accurate and helpful.

Honestly, your experience with her classes is going to heavily depend on the kind of person you are. She's very chill and laid back, and her teaching reflects that. She isn't my preferred type of professor, as just how laid back she is about everything made things more stressful as a student in my opinion, but I can see how others would enjoy it.

If you want to learn the bare minimum for a 4 credit class, take her. I get why people enjoy her class. It's because she is a little too laid back. I felt like I'd rather spend time learning something than nothing.

Her lackadaisical attitude in the classroom leads to an environment of laze and boredom. Consider taking her only if you want to have a 4 credit class for no real knowledge/insight gained. Better opportunities available at UTampa.

Can't believe this was a masters level course. Everything felt like barely anything and I wasn't able to take away much. Her style was laidback. The program overall helped me a ton, but this class had no value. Although I think if taught my another professor, it would be entirely different.

Please be mindful of speech for business with her. At the end of the class when I had her, I really didn't learn anything and my speaking skills remained the same if not worsened.

A truly boring experience with no real professional development. Please do not take her for any class.

While she means well, there's nothing productive/useful that her students really gain from her classes. She always tells student what they want to hear and is afraid of being truthful. Only take her if you are looking for an experience that doesn't add anything to your professional development.

Really bad experience, all my friends who had storytelling with another professor had a completely different experience in comparison to mine. Don't recommend Dr. Brown.

Her class was really fun. I actually learned a ton of information about myself and how to debate better. If you pay attention to what she says shes looking for in the assigment you'll do great. Her classes have a lot of student participation and you have a large say in what you learn. Debate class was so fun with her!

Genuinely cares about students, class was easy, mostly graded by speeches but there's a midterm and final. She clearly outlines what you have to do to get an A, and is willing to help you any way she can. Would definitely take her again.
