I had Dr. Chaaban for SPD229 and he was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and confident. He shows you every way to succeed in his class. A very dedicated professor.

Be on time! if you are more than 10 min late, it is an absence, no exceptions. Tests are STRAIGHT from the book. I learned more from the book than from the professor honestly.One major group paper to write. He is not very helpful. Instead of teaching new topics he asks opinions around the room and leaves you on your own to figure out the rest.

I had Dr. Chaaban for SPD126 and I realy enjoyed the class. Exams are from the lecutres and textbook. They can be challenging, but if you study, you should be fine. He is great and take him you will enjoy the class and his stories.

A very helpful professor. Gives clear directions and always willing to help students. He is fun to have as a speech teacher.

I really love his teaching style and easy way of interacting with students. Very easy to talk with. He challenges you to learn and makes sure you do in class.

EXCELLENT PROFESSOR USEFUL FREQUENT EMAILS

Mr. Chaaban was nice and had lots of jokes, but he was very serious on his policy. Such as attendance and exams so as long as you follow those you should get a good grade. He does not make exceptions to his policy unless you make arrangements prior. Higly recommend to anyone

He is a really chill professor, and jokes around a lot in class. I would def recommend him. He WILL randomly pick on you to answer questions,but in all honestly i think he does that only to mess with students. His class was easy, but his exams were hard (you should have to read the textbook. His hybrid course is the best. TAKE HIM!!!

I am taking Dr. Chaaban right now and I find him to be very pleasant, interesting, super helpful. and always willing to help students. I do not know what these other two students are saying. Take him and you will enjoy him a lot.

I have to say that he is the most enthusiastic and helpful professor I have ever taken. He is always there to help and very nice.

One of my favorite professors this semester. I like the fact that he is easy to talk with and when you need help, he is always there to help you. International students like him a lot.

Well I took his online course...don't do it. He gives a group assignment worth almost half your grade in an online course, my group was lazy when I asked him what to do about it he said "follow the directions." Sorry but there are none for having a lazy group. Two papers due in one week & one week to do an exam covering 8 chpts. Need I say more?

I took Dr. Chaaban for an ONLINE course and he was wonderful. I constantly received encouraging emails from him and I loved the group project. My group got an A and he received our paper twice before we submitted it. He is the best. I am glad I took him.

I do not what the previous person said but it is not true. The most caring professor I have ever had. Very nice, polite and super helpful. I loved his class.

I have taken many online classes, but he is the best professor so far. He is very caring and responsive. I had problems with one of my papers, and he was super helpful. If you are lazy, stay away from him. If you want to work and learn, take him. The BEST

Hands down--the best instructor at NOVA for online course. I really like his super fast email responses. Very kind and caring. Take him if you want to learn.

The material for the course is easy to learn, and he grades the speeches and papers fairly generously. The difficulty is in the multiple choice question's that are selected for the exams. It isn't always somethings that's been covered in the course material. If you have a borderline grade he will help, i got a 897 and he rounded up to an A.

The best professor I had. Excellent in grading assignments faster and always answers to emails quickly. I loved his notes and clarity on assignments. I strongly recommend him.

Class was pretty straight foward. Great teacher. Replies to emails as fast as could be. Very Nice, and super helpful with any questions! You must do your work to get a good grade. :0

I love this professor. Down to earth and funny. He cares a lot about his students. Goes over chapters and gives good examples. Always willing to read assignments before submission

The professor was amazing. He was funny, kept making little jokes, kept the class entertained and always gets back your attention. He is a really smart person and very CLEAR on what he wants. So, if you are expecting him to be telling you to do you HW go back to High School. Every thing is in BB. He grades fairly and and give real life examples.

By far the nicest professor I have met. Very helpful and responds to emails quickly. Very intelligent and willing to help.

I like the way he spreads out the assignments. Very encouraging and nice. I learned a lot about communication. From him. Easy going instructor

Assignments are interesting enough considering I have no interest at all in the course material (which is obviously not his fault). Sometimes the requirements for papers and group work are confusing, but he is helpful if you email him. I thought the midterm and final were very easy. Group project is time consuming. Quick email response and grading

Do the work and you will receive a good grade. He is always willing to help you. His directions are very clear and he responds to emails very fast. I love the group project and the speech. I learned a lot from his class.

This professor is pretty clear on what he expects. Assignments are not overwhelming at all. He grades fairly easily on regular assignments, just be careful on the video speech and group project. My grade went down because of the group project since most of the others are not dependable.

Dr. Chaaban makes sure everyone understands the assignments before he moves on. He is very friendly, but does not like late submission of assignments. He will definitely help you if you need help. An easy grader. Take him and you will enjoy the class.

Dr. Chaaban is such a nice professor. He makes sure you understand his assignments and he is very flexible when it comes to working with you. His is huge on attendance and on time submission of assignments. The course is pretty easy. The group project can be challenging, but he is always there to help you. I really enjoyed his class.

I could not have asked for a better professor than Dr. Chaaban. Very nice man with a strong background in the field of communication. He is very helpful and always willing to go out of his way to help. He has very, very interesting lectures and stories to explain the concepts.

He was a great professor! Online classes really require a teacher who is easy to work with and communicate with and he is for sure equipped for it! His class is easy and to the point, both exams are super easy! Do the work and you'll pass without a doubt. He's really nice and I would take a class with him again.

He's a really funny and nice guy, but is very strict with attendance and coming in late. Homework is easy, the exams are online on ur phone during class so you can go back and forth with google if you want lol. Other than that nice guy, doesnt mess with you too much.

A very nice man who is really willing to help his students. He is caring and very nice. Responds emails quickly and explains assignments very well.

It was a wonderful experience and he showed that he cares a lot about his students. Lectures are organized and he is good at explaining concepts. The speech was challenging, but I got a 90 on it. He is a dedicated professor

I loveeeee professor chabaan. I had an online class, was so understanding. If you going to be late with an assignment let the professor know and you complete it on your time.

A very nice man who is always wiling to help his students. I have many difficulties and he made me feel comfortable and was willing to help me each time. He is an easy grader. I got an A.

I have to say that I learned a lot about communication from him. The exams are not difficult, but require lot of reading. He is always there if you need him and he always sends reminders for due dates. He is down to earth with students.

Speaking in public is not my thing, but he was so relaxed and accommodating that I almost got rid of my fear. Such a nice person to deal with. When you need help, ask him and he will help out. His exams are easy and the speech was fun. I recommend him for CST110.

Dr. Chaaban has no problems challenging his students to their highest level. He makes sure you are learning and doing your best. Grading on speeches are very easy. He loves students who attends class regularly and participates. Easy A or B if you just do your best. He is very passionate about the subject and for students to succeed.

I like the fact that he was always ready to help students. If you talk to him ahead of time, he will extend assignments that are not submitted on time. He grades fairly and an easy professor. Take his class seriously and you will get a good grade. I loved his assignments and feedback.

A nice man who is always willing to help his students. I asked for help many times when it came to the speeches and he was very helpful. I love the Discussion Board and his comments on them. He is a very good and EASY professor.

Took him for CST 110, he is okay but gives you B's as getting A from him is hard. He was a bit annoying to me as if I don't want to share my personal life things, he should be okay but he was not. However, that line was just for me I am pretty sure he can be a ''okay'' professor for y'all. Good luck with him to you guys he teaches good by the way.

Loved taking his class. He is just the best. Easy grader and very nice. Always helpful and willing to work with you so you can do a very good job in his class. I strongly recommend him

Took it online over the summer; medium course-load. The chapter quizzes were right from the notes. Textbook is not needed if you have a friend who can send you some pages (I only used it for citing some pages for essays). The exams are super easy if you do the chapter quizzes. He does provide little or no feedback on assignments. Overall, amazing!

I had waited until the end to take CST229. I really loved it with Dr. Chaaban. He is such a nice person and directions are clear. His Canvas site is well organized and easy to navigate. I loved the teaching style. I will definitely take another class with him. Everyone loved the class.

I am so glad I took CST110 with him. I always reached out to him, especially for the speeches and he was nice and very helpful. I did not like the group project, but he made it easy and was helpful. It is nice to have a professor who is kind and willing to help students.

Professor Chaaban is a decent professor. You don't have to be a great speaker. A few points off here and there, but not enough to hurt your grade. This class is an easy 85-95 as long as you are making sure you submit everything on time and doing the quizzes. The amount of work is reasonable, I did this on top of my high school classes this spring.

CST110 was a course that I left for my last semester. I took it with Dr. Chaaban and he was such a nice guy. HE responds to my email very fast, graded all assignments quickly and will take his time to make sure students understand all major assignments. His directions are very helpful and an easy grader.

I took this course in the spring, and I am really glad I did. Directions were clear and the due dates were easy to follow. He is very approachable and willing to help. If you are nervous in speaking, let him know. He is very accommodating.

I had issues with my two speeches and he was super helpful. He helped me overcome the issues and allowed me to re-submit the speeches. He is a wonderful professor and who looks out for his students. Take him and you will enjoy the course.

He is such a good man. Very patient and listens to your difficulties if you experience them with speeches. I loved the group project and his feedback. He made sure we were on track on the project and always gave us feedback. I loved his teaching style. Easy grader.

Not any instructor can make you feel comfortable and relaxed. Dr. Chaaban made me very comfortable especially with my presentations. He is very accommodating and willing to help. My first speech was difficult but after taking with him, he gave e some tips and made me very relaxed.
