Professor Bell is a special person and a remarkable teacher. It was a great class.
I had a great time in this class and never once said I hated it. I learned a lot without having to stress. Learning the objectives just came naturally. I definitely recommend this class to others and assure them they will love it as much as I did. I also made many friends, which I never imagined. It was probably due to the first speech we gave.
What a great teacher!!! Even though I still feel nervous when I speak in front of others, Professor Bell gave me the tools and skills to better prepare myself for public speaking situations. I learned the do's and don'ts and will never forget to refrain from using the word "um". I highly recommend that every student take her class!
This was the one class I looked forward to each week because you literally have the opportunity to say how you feel. She is a wonderful professor! I will truly miss her and everyone in the class. I thank Professor Bell for the wonderful knowledge she has shared with me and the memories she has left with me!
It was a pleasure to have her as my professor. She taught me so much. This class was extremely interactive, which helps me learn better. The group assignments were great and not at all what I expected. Prof. Bell pushes you to do well in class and outside of school, so everyone always participated. This was my best class and I loved my classmates!!
In the beginning, I was hesitant about taking a speech class. But thanks to Professor Bell, we became a family. I enjoyed this class. Thanks to the environment, I was never afraid to speak. I had a lot of fun, and this was a great start to my Mountain View journey. I have Prof. Bell and this class to thank.
My experience in SPCH 1315 was unforgettable because I was able to create memories with my classmates! This class pushed me to the limit by doing assignments I first believedwere impossible, especially related to public speaking. All I can say is that this class was way better than I thought! I loved the way Prof. Bell taught the entire semester!!!
This was a great class! I enjoyed going to class and I really learned a great deal. This class has taught me to listen and have patience. She is a great professor! If I have a chance in the future, I will take another class with Professor Bell. I thank her for everything!
It was really a pleasure taking this speech class. I was very impressed with Prof. Bell's teaching style! She is a very good communicator! I never felt out of the loop or like she failed to inform me of any essential information. Overall, this was a very enjoyable experience.
Loved this class! Every time I had to give a speech, my classmates cheered me on! The environment created by our wonderful professor gave me the feeling of much like home, where I could be comfortable and be myself. Thanks, Prof. Bell!
Inspired! This is one of my emotions that has been flowing through me since I started this class. Everything I expected and more was provided by Prof. Bell. I can't thank her enough. Each time I make a big presentation to my company, I'll remember everything she taught me. I'll be taking speech classes throughout my college years thanks to you!
I'm truly thankful for what this class has blessed me with! Speaking in front of others isn't quite easy, but overall it has paid off. This class helped me gain confidence in myself and face a huge fear. Besides the learning, I enjoyed the time I spent! I thank Prof. Bell for being such an amazing teacher.
Prof. Bell is a wonderful person. If anyone were to ask me if I'd redo this class all over again, without a doubt, my answer would be "Yes"!
SPCH 1311 was such a great adventure! We learned from our peers and observed their strengths and challenges during speeches. This class has helped me tremendously in losing the fear of talking in front of an audience. It was a pleasure taking this class, and Prof. Bell made it even better with her personality!
My experience in SPCH 1311 was very pleasant. Prof. Bell made every assignment and test review very clear. I liked how she always kept us up to date via email before every class meeting. Prof. Bell is one of the most understanding teachers I've had at Mountain View. I thank her so much!
I received much more out of this class than I expected! I almost took SPCH 1311 online, but I am very glad I took it in person. Prof. Bell is not only good at teaching, but she can "walk the walk" and "talk the talk" when presenting her own speeches! Her attention to detail and communication with us, including emails before class, was excellent.
This was my best class! Prof. Bell is just so awesome - a great teacher and a good example. She helps and encourages you to build up those inward skills and hidden abilities! I didn't know I could be a great speaker and presenter until I took this class. Each class was so full of life! I was always excited about the new things I would learn.
I really enjoyed this class. I truly found myself looking forward to the nights I had speech class! I have Prof. Bell to thank for making this semester a great one. Before, I was really tired and considered taking a break from school, but having her as a professor, and her making class so enjoyable, I decided to keep on moving. I am a fan!
This experience will be unforgettable! I could not have had a better class to start off my first year in college ever. I know that what I learned in this class will help me very much in the future. I am forever thankful to Professor Bell.
SPCH 1311 was a very fun class! And I feel that I was taught very well. The speeches we did were not pointless as with most classes - they actually were relevant.
My experience in SPCH 1315 was humbling. This class is a perfect example of how learning can be fun! Prof. Bell has set the standard of my expectation for future classes. She is one of a kind. I hope to be in more classes like this.
My experience in SPCH 1315 was very rewarding! Prof. Bell taught me to come out of my shell. She is very motivating and encouraging. At first, I was terrified to stand in front of an audience and give a speech, but now I know I can do it successfully! Prof. Bell helped me gain confidence. I really, really appreciate her!
Taking speech was not as bad as I imagined. I believe that I got to know my classmates better in this class than in any other class I have ever taken. I really enjoyed the experience! I feel that Prof. Bell is the best when it comes to making others feel comfortable and confident in speaking.
I loved this class! Prof. Bell made the class fun. She also made everyone feel comfortable and encouraged us in a non-judgmental way.
Prof. Bell is AWESOME! Very specific on every assignment, offers extra credit, and provides a thorough review before each exam. She is very welcoming, considering, personable and the list goes on. Her class has definitely boosted my public speaking confidence. Fun class. Her handouts are all you need to be successful. Would take again. Easy A!
My experience in this speech class was amazing because I can truly say that Prof. Bell is best teacher. This class required me to step outside of my comfort zone and it also helped me learn to socialize more. As each day passed by, I became more comfortable because of the supportive environment.
I truly enjoyed SPCH 1311! I loved the interaction with Prof. Bell and my classmates! The instructor's effective teaching methods and quality leadership skills made each class experience very rewarding. I am a better person because of this class.
I had a fun time in this class. I feel that I have definitely improved my public speaking skills. It was an honor learning from Prof. Bell.
This class was very warm and welcoming, which really helped me overcome the nervousness that I experienced in the past when speaking in front of strangers. What I learned in SPCH 1311 will definitely help me in the future.
My experience in SPCH 1311 was very positive. I learned a great deal about myself as well as others. I feel much more confident when speaking to an audience now. The course content really relates to the real world we live in today in terms of how we behave. I truly enjoyed my time spent in class this summer.
I loved my SPCH 1311 class! I made new friends and I have more confidence. I learned a lot. I never thought I would ever feel comfortable with speaking in public, but I do! I am so grateful for Prof. Bell - she helped me overcome my "stage fright."
I truly think this is a great class to have as a prerequisite for many degrees. Prof. Bell's teaching style and classroom environment helps students feel comfortable and more confident when speaking. I personally can say that I learned so much in just 5 weeks and this class has definitely helped me improve my communication skills.
This class was a blast! A lot of great, relevant information was packed into a very short amount of time. The daily communication to us made the class so much easier to keep up with. I could clearly see the course content we learned throughout my day, although prior to this class I did not know the science behind the principles. Thanks, Prof. Bell!
This class was my favorite out the entire semester. Prof. Bell is amazing. She truly cares and makes the assignments as easy as possible, but you still end up learning. I highly recommend her. Going to miss this class.
Professor Bell was great, I really enjoyed her class. She sends emails the day of class letting you know what to expect that day. She gives rubrics to let students know what she expects of them. Textbook not req. to buy as she hands out notes summarizing the book. She reviews before tests and if you study, it's an easy A.
Clear instructions with all speeches and provided topics. She's very outgoing and understanding. She will work something out for you either in general or on those bad weather days when a storm is coming. She cares for your safety.
I honestly enjoyed speech class. It helped me feel a lot more comfortable with speaking in front of people. The classmates I met were encouraging and accepting. It was a great experience. Thank you, Prof. Bell, for the time you take to educate others. It really is a special thing when you have a professor that is passionate about what she does.
It was a pleasure to take speech with Prof. Bell. She has a very warm, caring, and understanding personality. I really enjoyed her as a professor and highly recommend her to other students.
This class has been a great ride. I learned new techniques for preparing my speeches. When I first entered Prof. Bell's classroom, I felt this class was going to be fun, yet educational. Now that the semester is over, I see I was right! I appreciate everything my professor taught me. And I will definitely apply this knowledge to my everyday life.
This class has been the best, most rewarding course I have ever taken! When the semester first started, Prof. Bell's class was already full, but she still permitted me to enroll. Even though speech is not my strongest subject, I still completed this class successfully. This experience has made me more influential and productive as a professional.
The whole semester in Prof. Bell's class was fun and exciting. Not only did I feel comfortable being in the class, but also presenting the speeches, due to the welcoming presence of all my classmates. Prof. Bell made this class go by so fast with the great environment she created by always encouraging everyone to do their best.
In the beginning, I felt very skeptical about taking this class. I told myself I did not need it because I was already a great public speaker. It turns out that I was so wrong. Prof. Bell did an excellent job teaching me the proper ways to convey a message effectively. I went from being a novice to a more professional speaker thanks to Prof. Bell!
The format for this speech class allowed for communication to develop through conversation. I truly enjoyed the class! Thank you, Prof. Bell, for your time!
This was one of my favorite classes, which is quite ironic because I initially thought it would be my least favorite class. I will absolutely tell all my friends to take speech with Prof. Bell because it was just a lovely experience! I honestly enjoyed myself! What an amazing class! I was terrified to take speech at first, but it was so much fun!!!
I enjoyed every single second of Prof. Bell's speech class! She brought the class together in such a special way. I thank her so much for sharing her wealth of knowledge with us!
Prof. Bell's speech class really gave me confidence to speak in front of others without being overwhelmed by "butterflies". Any person who helps me better myself is someone special to me, so Prof. Bell certainly is! From the bottom of my heart, I thank her for helping me believe that any time I give a speech in life that I will "rock it"!
I loved Prof. Bell's speech class. She helped me escape from my "bubble" as related to speaking in front of an audience. I still feel a ltitle nervous, but not nearly as much now. I truly wish Prof. Bell taught EVERY CLASS! Lol!
This class was truly amazing! I had a great experience. I love Prof. Bell's teaching style because we can apply what we learn to our everyday lives. I enjoyed all the topics as well as all the types of speeches covered in her class. And my classmates were outstanding!
I absolutely loved Prof. Bell's speech class! She made me feel so much more comfortable with speaking in front of others. It is usually very hard for me to retain information, but with the way Prof. Bell taught, I always was able to remember what I learned. I thank her for helping me break out of my shell. I am going to miss my favorite class!!!

I have become so much more confident when speaking in front of others. I have learned how to calm my nerves and gather my thoughts so that I can project great speeches.
MUST take Prof. Bell. Best teach ever had. If you know that you are shy and afraid to speak in front of people, Prof. Bell will help you overcome your fear. Easy speeches, she gives you time to prepare yourself. Take her. I really, really, really ,really RECOMMEND Prof. BELL to anyone who needs to take speech!!!! YOU WON'T REGRET IT.
I'll never forget her. She's an amazing professor and you will not end the semester the same person. If she could teach every class, there will be a quality education for everyone! 5/5 and would definitely take her class again.
Awesome class! Awesome professor! Would definitely take her again if I ever need another speech class!
Professor Bell is AMAZING! What I love about her is that she is so understanding when an emergency happens outside of class and you're not able to make it to class. She will email you everything you need to know in order to be caught up by the next class time. She is very sweet and funny, I definitely recommend her!
Love Ms. Bell! She's funny and makes everyone comfortable with who they are and gets their voices out. Always enjoyed her classes the most, even though they started at 7:30 :D
SPCH 1315 was one of the best classes I have taken at Mountain View College! Prof. Bell helped me greatly improve my ability in public speaking. I already recommended her to all my friends. I truly enjoyed this class!
This class was one of the best classes I have taken so far in college! She takes the time and evaluate your public speaking, and tells you how you did and helps you to improve your speaking skills. After the course was over I became a way better public speaker. There is a textbook book for the class put its FREE and its online!
Ms. Bell is an amazing professor! She made the class enjoyable, doable and was encouraging and understanding! She really challenges her students to believe in themselves. Lots of speaking and group interaction. Easy to get an A if you show up and do the assignments. Highly recommend!!!!
I JUST LOVE HER, I WAS SO SCARED WHEN I DECIDED TO TAKE THIS CLASS, BUT SHE HAS RAISED MY CONFIDENCE FROM 0 TO 80 % BEST TEACHER EVER !
She was a great, understanding Professor. Most definitely one of my favorites.
the best thing I did was taking this class. you can learn so many things and develop your speaking skill in public. very easy grader. easy to get A with honors credit.
She was an amazing teacher. Easy to talk to and pushes you and gives inspiration.
A true gem. One dont need to think twice to take her class. Easy A if you participate.
this class was so fun and entertaining, prof is really understanding. exams weren't difficult, it is helpful to study tho, as exams cover definitions, examples, and explanations. homework assigned isn't difficult, so long as you use the textbook for reference. overall vibe of the class was chill, really gonna miss learning in prof bell's class.
Great Professor, If you have the chance to have her class take it. You wont regret it. You really just need to participate and you will pass it with an A I promise. Took her at TCC.
A guaranteed easy A if you do the work. Turn in the work and do the presentations should have no problem passing her class. even the kids that didnt try got good scores on their assignments. gives extra time if you turn in your assingment late, easy .
