Speeches are easy, and is an easy grader for those, but she is a very tough grader on the quizzes; it has to be word for word from the book or else its wrong. She is a terrible communicator, as she says one thing and does another. She doesn't do much teaching other than reading off of powerpoint. Read the book, don't take notes (waste of time).

Ms. Hatfield is a very nice and approachable person, but I feel that some of the grades were a bit unfair. There seems to be no discernible way to improve your presentation grade. Even after trying to improve upon some of the criteria that she mentioned in the feedback, I always managed to get the same grade. Be careful, the quizzes are rough

She's really nice and a pretty good teacher. She can sometimes grade harshly but if you go over your speech a few times in front of someone the night before, you should get a good grade. Also show up to class! By the end of the semester half my group was gone because they wouldn't show up to class so if you skip a lot then don't take this class.

Professor Hatfield is nice but seems disinterested. She cancels class when she has no lesson plan for that day, reads off of slides, and assigns busywork that you won't get credit for.

The lectures aren't very interactive, she mainly just reads off of a slide. The grading criteria for speeches is clear and concise, which is nice because you always know what to expect to be graded by. Quizzes aren't too bad if you pay attention and there's not very many. Overall, she's nice and personable and the class is pretty easy going

Good teacher, but has random nit picks for grading, such as if you look at the side of the room she is sitting even for a second while giving a speech you will usually get docked a large chunk of points for not engaging with the audience.

Overall tough grader, makes you work harder for the next speech presentation. Always has good feedback for you to improve. Participating in a group is required for it is a group communications class. Super important to remember that it is your responsibility to meet and communicate with your class group. Great thing about the class is extra credit.

I missed quite a bit of class one week because I couldn't wake up on time, but Rebecca was understanding and saw that I was trying to make it to class because I showed up one day and class was already over, but I was fortunate enough to bump into her on her way out of class and she gave me another chance to continue going to this class.

This class taught by this instructor I learned a lot because of the clear and detail feedback she gave back. You were given feedback after each speech which was really helpful so you can improve the next time.
