the coolest prof. I have ever had

Great teacher during the tests she would even give out some answers for a couple of questions. Also really nice.

Margie is super nice, and even though you do learn a lot, her class is very easy! Very sweet lady.

I thought that she was a wonderful teacher. She is one of the few teachers that actually cares.

Margie is awsome and truly cares about each and every one of her students. She goes out of her way to make sure everyone's questions are answered and is an asset to the EMU teaching community. Her stories are awsome too.

she was excellent when i had her and very flexible

She was pretty cool. Very understanding. At first it seems like she grades harshly, but as the semester went on i thought it got easier. As long as you do a speech and have it long enough you will get an A

Great prof. This class is a lot of fun!

Loved this class! She is such a nice prof. As long as you go to class and have your speechs ready to give on the day assigned your pretty much garenteed an A!

Teacher is very laid back and no need to buy the book I really never used it.

I loved her! The material was easy, but she was a great teacher. very nice and understanding.

Margie is great! Loves to joke around, fun class, great participation. She makes learning fun and is a great listener. You will need the text book to study for mid terms and your final. Only a few easy papers and she grades easy. I love you Margie!

Margie is a good teacher, she is very understanding, and will help you get on the track you need to be if you fall behind. There are a lot of papers due, but as long as you do them right, you will receive an A. The only thing I had a problem with was I didn't understand her lectures sometimes, but if you ask she will explain.

Margie is aweeesoome! Comeon people, it's an easy A. Why are you complaining? There are fun exercises and easy tests. Make sure to buy the book!

Lots of group work. You teach the chapters, she lectures a bit. It's an easy class, and she's pretty crazy, but in a good way. She's pretty cool. I'd take her again. There are way worse teachers.

Pretty easy class. You teach the chapters yourselves in groups and there are really easy quizzes every week for the first month or so. There is a mandatory research paper for the class, but that's not that bad. I really liked her as a professor and the class was interesting.

I'm surprised by these negative comments. Margie is very nice, and helpful. Things may not always be clear, but she's always happy to clarify. Tests are super easy. If it's on the study guide, it's on the test. (and the study guide is very easy). A fair amount of group work. The book is awful! Just read for the chapters u present and you'll be fine

MARGIE IS AMAZING, I love this class so much. Its the highlight of my day when I go to this class. Its a lot of group work, but the midterm is partnered, shes sure to make it easy. No tests, and always fun activities. Never a dull moment, and very easy. Text book sucks so its hardly used. Im so happy i took nonverbal communication. :)

She is a great professor. She was very into the class and engaging. The class is easy and you will get an A, IF YOU ATTEND CLASS. It's all class work. So, if you miss a class, you may lose on an activity you cant make up. But no worry, she gives out bonus points, and you can do an exam with a partner.

Margie was a great professor, you just have to show up and do the chapter reviews which are very simple. Then the speeches which she lets you do your own topic based on the criteria. Group work allows you to get comfortable with your classmates. By the end you will improve on speaking in front of people. I know I did.

She made her lectures interesting and would get the class to engage in discussion. Most tests were allowed to be completed with a partner. All the projects are done in groups, so if you get a good group you should get a good grade in this class.

This professor was fantastic. She explained everything and was always there when you needed help. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.

I am an Alumni, I had her for a lot of classes. Professor Brooks has helped me in a lot of communication courses and she is a wonderful professor. There is a lot of class participation, if you do not show up to class you will not pass. Pay attention and don't use your phones or computers in class she does take away points for that.

Dr. Brooks is an extremely kind professor who truly cares about her students. She really wants us to enjoy our class and public speaking in general. She also baked my class snacks throughout the semester. The course may be tough to some, but she is thorough and clear about what she wants. Every student seems to improve throughout this course.

Margie Brooks is awesome! She is always willing to help and really cares about he students. I would recommend her speech class to anyone!

not a huge fan of group projects but this class was okay. margie is so sweet but her class was confusing in direction a few times. didn't know what was going on a lot. this class is all about showing up, that's all you have to do to pass tbh

Going into this class I was a little nervous as her ratings were adequate; however, this has turned out to be the best class I have ever taken. Margie was always clear in terms of directions and what she expected, which was super beneficial. Overall, do not let these people tell you not to take her, because she is the best! I highly recommend.

Margie is a real peach. Her lectures are brief and you're mostly working on speeches or listening to speeches. Go to class and participate and she'll love you. Chapter reviews due every week along with a speech every other week.

The lectures were a bit confusing because she went really fast but if you keep studying your textbook and look at the handouts, you will surely pass. Also the group projects and regular projects were a lot of fun so it should be easy for all.

Margie is one of the sweetest old ladies I know. Her speech class was always a blast before we went online. She gave such good notes on our speeches and genuinely cared about what everyone had to say. Homework is really easy, it is just notes from a chapter in the textbook. Just show up and pay attention, youll pass with no difficulty.

Professor Brooks is such a sweet lady. Her Speech class requirements are clear, as long as you do the weekly reviews, and put some effort into your speeches, you will be fine. She is a very fair grader, and gives great feedback upon request. Attendance is not mandatory, and she gives work days. I enjoyed and learned a lot in this class. I recommend

The class was easy to pass.

Her class is very easy, at the beginning is very stressful especially if you have speech anxiety. As the class goes on the speeches get easier. Homework besides speeches is very simple notes from the online book she provides. Overall easy class, just don't slack and miss a speech and you should be good.

Margie has her own since of humor. In the class we only did one group project which was very easy but did have to present. Had to write one page paper each week based on the chapter we were covering. Only had one paper to do that was a minimum of 5 pages but it was easy because half of it was defining and answering questions.

Genuinely a sweet professor but really hard to talk and lots of miscommunication. Not a hard grader, as long s you show you actually put the work in, and attendance matters. No clear grading system or rubric, and a lots of review papers. Not an abysmal professor as long as you work hard and listen.

Great professor

Taking this class as summer course is very tedious because she has her students write a two page reflection on every chapter they are assigned (2-3/w) as well as ur speeches but its not too hard. She is a very easy grader and very understanding as well. My only complaint is that she does not give out a rubric but because she is so lenient its fine.
