The teacher was, alright. The work was fairly easy, but the assignments weren't very clear. Grading was a little tough only because she wouldn't tell you what was expected and then grade you on stuff that was missing. Overall not to bad, passed with a B.

This is one of those classes that is packed with pointless busy work and nothing you will take with you into the real world. Also, a group project, really? And you have to interview a person in a career you like, that entails a drawn out process down to planning your outfit you will wear. Worst online class I've ever taken, do not recommend.

I took Communications 1010 online. It was a pretty self-explanatory easy class. She gives you good feedback and responds pretty quickly. You do have a group project, and it was kind of difficult because it was an online class. Lots of projects, so you actually need to put effort into this class. Good teacher though.

I recommend avoiding this teacher. She has huge projects for every module, it is major overload for a generals class. It's all busy work, nothing of value. She isn't very clear on what she expects and then docks you points if you don't do what she had in mind. I would work exactly off of her examples and get docked for not doing it correctly.

For being a communications class, Teisha was awful at communicating. Her assignments were not clear and the group project is an absolute joke.

This class was a lot of work. There is an career interview project right in the beginning, a group project in the middle, and a speech that you have to do at the end even though this was an online class. There are no tests but the many projects make up for that. She is also a very specific grader.

This class is a TON of work. You have to do a group project, interview someone who works in a field that you like, and do a speech in front of 5 people. The grading is very specific and you have to pay close attention to that. Try another teacher. Easy A, but you had to do a lot of busy work. I would not bother buying the book if I were you...

This class was an online class... But there was so much project work that it would have been better in class. There was no final, so that was great. But it was just so much busy work... Pointless in my opinion. I paid 108$ for the book. I literally never opened it once.... Super easy to get an A if you just log in once a week for about two hours.

I wouldn't recommend this class. Not now, not later, not ever. For being a communications teacher she doesn't do well with being a great communicator. She doesn't really help so get prepared to fend for yourself. Also, wayyy too many assignments as if we don't have other classes to focus on as well. Find a better professor and if you have her, GL.

Too many projects and too little time to finish them. Four major projects in this class, and each is worth 20% of your grade. Sometimes you will have 120+ pages of reading you should do before your weekly quiz.

She did great in providing textbook context for online class. Some area's I wish had more details with it. We had to write journals for certain section topics and it was tough to write a 400 word journal with limited information when she wanted us to cite our work. But overall a good class to take for Gen Ed!

The class is straight forward and easy, the only difficult aspect is the workload at times , not the difficulty of it, but the length. Sometimes it feels redundant or just simply unnecessary to assign. However, she offers extra credit throughout, is understanding, and the course is easy if you stay on top of it. Would recommend!

Workload heavy at time., but the work is easy. She is a fast grader and gives actual feedback on assignments. Would recommend I found the class to be very easy and for the most part low effort.

The course work can be kind of repetitive and common-knowledge at times. There is a lot of pointless assignments (why am I writing a paper about architecture?). The teacher didn't teach so much as the textbook did, but she was a quick grader and left good feedback.

I liked Teisha Vest, she gave pretty good feedback and replied in a timely manner and was helpful. However, I feel like her rubrics are a little vague and for full points they might say you need to "exceed the basic requirements". There is a group project at the end, but that's required for all Comm1010 classes, as is the presentation for 5 people.

There was a fair amount of reading, but it was not excessive. Clear, fair outlines that make it easy to do well on assignments. She has a grace period before the late policy kicks in, which is very kind. Stay on top of your assignments and you will do great. :)

I liked Professor Vest. I knew that if I reached out to her there would be feedback or answers to my questions. She doesn't reach out too much herself, so it is up to you to do so. But I felt like since it's a generalized class she did well at presenting the necessary criteria for assignments and being there if we needed help getting something done

She is a bit of a tough grader on the big assignments like the Culture Speech and the main group assignment. Other than that, she grades things generously and is pretty lenient with late work. The Culture Speech assignments and group project are a huge portion of your grade so take them seriously. Overall, I'd recommend taking this course.

She is inconsistent with her grading. Her rubric is put together where you can't get 100% unless you go "above and beyond" the assignment. I got 100's on pretty much everything but feel like she expects too much from a 1010 class. I also felt like she would randomly decide to not give me 100 on an assignment even when I met all of the guidelines.

Her introduction to us for the course made her feel a little unapproachable so I was hesitant when I had to reach out. She does work with late work but has a TON to read!! The prompts/assignments aren't totally clear 99% of the time so you just have to wing it & hope for good feedback. Pretty easy if you just try your best & read all the chapters.

The feedback she gives is really helpful and clearly lays out what you need to do in order to improve the scores you get on each assignment or reflection. Some of the reading is really dense and it may be tough to keep everything soaked up. The good news is you don't need to. Just commit a few topics to memory and then apply those to your own life

I rarely waited more then 48 hours to receive grading and constructive feedback on assignments. This effort alone, in my opinion, qualifies Professor Vest for a 5 star rating as I have often not received any grading or feedback in online courses at the Salt Lake Community College prior to the end of a semester.

Teisha Vest was a great instructor. She has a ton of experience and that is clear in her teaching style and quality of feedback on assignments. She does use a textbook but it's a really good one (easy to read, learned a lot) and it's FREE, so that's nice. The work done in class is valuable and makes sense, it doesn't feel like busy work.

Professor Vest's teaching style immediately drew me in, hands-off but always available to answer questions and flexible with turning in late work. The course was very much a "you get out what you put in" if you do the work, you'll pass without issue. Excellent first class after not going to school for 10+ years.

Prof. Vest did a good job of providing feedback on your assignments and was a pretty lax grader. The communication course itself had an unbearably boring textbook that was outdated and a speech assignment that was hard to present to an audience since it was an online class. Overall, any of the other assigned work was easy to complete. Easy class.
