She has been the BEST professor I have been fortunate to take! She is very intelligent, helpful, clear in class. Not to mention very pretty as well! lol! She definitely help me increase my speech communications skills! I would EXTREMELY recommend you take her for any of your speech courses! You will NOT REGRET the decision! TRUST ME!!! :)
She is a very great, intelligent teacher! Her class is fun and never boring. The work is not difficult. I recommend taking her :)
Mrs. Lackey is awesome, I toke her summer 2 class and passed with an A. She lets you know what is expected and how everything should be done. She also creates a great learning environment for her students. We didn't really use the book but you should just rent it. I learned a lot from her and i'm sure you can to take Mrs. Lackey!
Great Teacher!!! I love coming to her class plus she made clas interesting and fun. Do highly recommend her to anybody! She made public speaking a piece of cake!
Don't give speeches on gruesome topics, very engaging,former social worker,participation is an almost sure way to receive a C or better, tests are very easy if you follow her instructions for preparation
Absolutely loved her! Class was fun and learned a lot even though it was a summer class. She grades speeches pretty good and tells you what to work on. I got a B on my first speech but looked at the tips she gave me and I got A for the class (:
I enjoyed this class and was pleased with Professor Lackey performance and methods used. I think she's a great teacher.
Loved this professor! Took her summer one 8am class but she made me excited for class every morning. She tells funny stories and you will learn at the same time. Take note on what she tells you to work on and your grade will improve (:
I love her class. She is the BEST teacher ever. I had fun in her class. My English is not good, but I really enjoy her class. She make me feel confident, comfortable, and she really care about her student. She email back to you soon. TAKE HER CLASS and you will see you make a right choice. Thank you so much professor Lacky. I will miss her.
She is a wonderful teacher she always keeps the class interested and no speech topic was dull. All you have to do to pass is get up in front of the class and do you speech. definitely recommend.
She is AWESOME! I hate speech but she makes me a lot more comfortable than I would normally be. She is very nice and understanding and DOES NOT REQUIRE YOU TO BUY BOOK. I wish I wouldve known that before I got mine. She can be a LITTLE stricy on grading sometimes but its only because she already makes the class so easy.
Where do I begin? She is awesome! Funny, understanding, and real. You don't need the book to pass. Try hard because she factors that into your grade. She's really big on respecting your classmates when they are presenting. She's tall, pretty, blonde, and owns a ranch with her husband. Think French manicure and cowboy boots! She's the bomb!
She is AWESOME! She is nice and understanding You do not have to buy the book. She makes the class so easy. All you have to do is pay attention, and get up in front to the class and do your speech.. A very easy A. Take her class you will not regret it...
recommended this class to anyone having trouble or never looked forward to speech class
Just do your work
She's awesome!Highly recommend her. The class is extremely easy, hardly any book work. Just a few note taking and a couple of speeches. She does anything possible for you to be comfortable while presenting your speech. Only has afternoon classes
Professor Lackey is AWESOME! She is highly recommended she makes giving a speech worth giving, because of her understand, honest, and great teaching skills.
Her class is easy. You will love attending her class. She lays it out for you; you eihter get it or you don't. You will learn & gain so much from her class. Easy passing grade. She is willing to help you if you are willing to put the effort. :)
Professor Lackey is an excellent professor. She makes the traditional formal class room environment laid back in order to create an easier place to give your speeches. She understands her students needs and will work with you. She relates her class to everyday life. Do your speeches, respect your classmates and you will do great in her class.
I was afraid I would cry in class because I was so afraid but she does anything you need to be comfortable in the class, even if you need to give your speech just to her or something else. There is 1 written test. She tells you exactly what will be on the test & the answers so you can't fail!
Professor Lackey class was very interesting I am glad I took her class. I learner many things that will help me out later in life.
Professor Lackey is a GREAT TEACHER!! She gives you every tool you need to succeed in Speech. She is very patient with those who are afraid. I just LOVED going to class. Professor Lackey you are "Strength Defined"!
Speech with Prof Lackey was amazing! She is down to earth and makes you feel comfortable when doing your speeches. I wont say her class was an easy A, but as long as you study and do what youre supposed to then an A is most likely guaranteed. I really enjoyed her class and i know that what i learned with her will definitely be helpful in the future
Professor Lackey was a terrific teacher. We were not just learning from her, but we learned to also learn from one another. She prepared me for projects I will do in the future. Will not regret taking her class. Class will not seem mandatory and the time will fly by.
This teacher is amazing. Not only did she teach you the academic lesson, she also teaches you life lessons. She makes the class really enjoyable and she clearly states what she wants and gives a clear outline for the rubric so the speeches are easy as long as you rehearse it. Overall I definitely recommend taking her class for speech!
Awesome teacher! She will help you anytime of of the day! 247! I highly recommend her!
This class was super easy. The professor is extremely helpful when it comes to speeches she does her best to make you feel comfortable when presenting your speech & that's coming from someone who Is terrified to speak in public. I would definitely take this class again if I needed too. As long as you do your speeches you will definitely pass.
Great professor, I was so nervous for my speeches but she made everyone feel comfortable.. She was always available when I needed any help .
She's an awesome professor who is vey funny and kind. She is very respectful and reasonable. As long as there is communication between teacher and student you should be fine. The work is not difficult as long as try and study you will succeed.
Best speech teacher, out of high school and college. Helps you become a better public speaker. Very relatable.
She was an amazing teacher
I wouldn't say her class is too easy, in the sense that you can just take the class and pass, it's quit challenging to get up and speak. she's just great at explaining and letting you what she expects in your speeches, her rubrics are the key in getting a good score. I loved her class very helpful she makes a great environment among her students.
Take notes from lecture PPT slides! Mid-Term of 99 questions comes directly from lecture slides and definitions. Speech rubric gives you all you need to know on how to structure and deliver your speeches. Get past the sweaty palms and the rest should be copacetic. By the way Professor Lackey is very down to Earth and approachable.
Professor Lackey is truly an amazing teacher! She is very clear about the assignments and makes you feel so comfortable that even the most shy person would walk out of her class with the ability to public speak. She helps you connect with classmates which makes class so much easier! I would so recommend taking her, she is truly one of the best ever
Awesome teacher! Professor Lackey tells you exactly what she expects from her students, she makes you feel comfortable and is a very undertandable person, you have one test which she gives you a study guide of what will be on the test, and then you have 3 speeches which she tells you exactly how she wants it to be, this was a fun and easy class
I loved professor Lackey i would definitely recommend her class to anyone. I am really shy but she made me feel so comfortable she helped me prep my speeches and she is an easy grader. I only took one test and there is 3 speech plus the final which is a short speech on what you learned. You won't regret it if you take her I promise.
A perfect teacher to help you start your path to education. She tells you what she expects from you with clarity. A great professor who will always be there for you.
Best professor I've ever had! I wish she taught every subject! She truly cares about her students.
She is just great
She is the best professor I ever had! She is really clear on what we are going to do during the semester and she is really flexible. She is a really open person that would tell you things about her life for you to related them with what she is teaching you. you have to do 3 speeches for you to be able to pass the class. I would recommend her.
Took Mrs. Lackey for spring 2016, she really cares about her students. Trust me I was not comfortable with public speaking but she's there to walk you through it. Do expect to do group projects, and your attendance does make a difference so don't expect an easy A. 42 Overall I will take her class again
Great teacher Really cares about your school and social life
Proffesor Lackey is a great instructor. By far the best instructor I have had the privaledge of having while attending Mountain View College. I dealt with multiple funerals and an injury to my mother during the semester I had Professor Lackey, she was understanding and very helpful in working around my hectic schedule. I would gladly recommend her.
Amazing professor Loves her job Teaches you great life and communication skills
Amazing person, absolutely adored her. Totally recommend to anyone who wants a great professor who cares.
Prof. Lackey was sooooooo awesome! She has a great personality and just makes an overall fantastic professor/person. She is very sweet, funny, and straight-to-the point. She cares about all her students and is very helpful. be prepared for group projects and speeches. try not to be absent , super fun class
she has been one of the easiest professors i have taken and always there to help in anything you need
Professor Lackey cares for her students and she is always willing to help and give feedback. Her class was made up of a midterm, group speeches, and essays. It is not hard if you attend class and ask her for help, she's very friendly and approachable. If you need a speech class I highly recommend taking this class, you wont regret it.
Professor made me very comfortable in her class. He's very understanding knowledgeable and funny. Over all she's a very fun professor I would totally recommend her class to everyone. Thank you for everything professor Lackey
Excellent professor! She makes Speech so fun. If Speech is not your thing and it is one of your required courses to take, please take her class.
Prof. Lackey is great at showing her students she cares about them and their studies. She makes her lectures entertaining and it helps with the memorization. Most of your speeches are in a group setting so beware when selecting your team members.
She is the most amazing professor I've had since being a college student. She is very understanding to all of her students. Also when it comes to assignments she makes sure everything is clear so that students have a perfect understanding on what's expected. If you participate and provide great academic work you will be pleased with you grade.
She is a fantastice teacher. She made class interesring. Very funny and she understands the students.
She can relate with the students and is always very understanding. Her class isn't boring compared to my other classes
She is probably the best sperch teacher out there
You will not regret taking her class. I promise
The easiest A one could possibly get no doubt. She' s the best speech professor and I promise you won't regret taking her..
Thank you for being such an encouraging professor. You expect a lot from your students but provide us with the tools to do our best. I appreciate all the different techniques you showed us how we could do our speeches. It is refreshing to have such an open minded and accepting professor. Have a wonderful summer!!
She is the best! Easy class . She also gives you some life advices. And would be willing to help you anytime !
Very involved and helpful to the students. As long as you do what your supposed to, you'll pass!
As long as you put effort, you can make a good grade in this class. Professors lectures were always interesting and I enjoy this class very much.
Professor Lackey is a great, intelligent and understanding teacher. She always has a great story to tell that relates to the lecture. I wouldn't call her exactly easy, but she is a fair grader if you do the work and she will definitely work with you. I will be taking her again, it is one of the best classes I've taking.
I had Professor Lackey last semester and she was awesome! I just heard she is offering blended classes in Spring of 18 and I am so jealous! You only go to campus one day a week - sign up for Monday blended and you meet Mondays, but work on line Wednesdays or vice vesrsa for Wednesday blended. I wish I would had this chance!! Take her!!
She is the bomb dot com
Professor Lackey is one of the best professor I have had the pleasure to meet with. She is not only a good lecturer but she gets to know her students. I recommend her 100 %!
Her grading criteria is awesome she gives you an outline of the semester, so there is no way to fail this course unless you, don't show up and you do not do your work. Definitely recommend her for any course needed and her lecture are not boring.
She is an Awesome Professor!!! She is inspirational, motivational and great Professor. Highly recommended.
She is amazing women
Mrs. Lackey is such a great professor!! Easy A class as long as you put in the effort! She wants everyone to pass, also she is very caring. I was dreading taking a speech class but this is the best speech class anyone can take!!
TAKE HER! Especially if talking in front of people isn't your thing. She is super nice and will work with you. She doesn't grade hard either so just trust me and take her lol
Loved her class! Easy speech class for those who dont like to speak in front of an audience bc she puts you in groups!
I would definitely take this class again.
Professor Lackey is a fantastic teacher. Her lectures are great and she has some funny stories. If you do the work, you'll have no problem passing and she gives you rubrics with every little thing she wants. Follow the rubrics and study for the one and only test (her midterm) and you'll get an A.
I took this class in spring 2018 and it was an easy A. You do have to go to class and you do need to participate. She is fun and caring do NOT drop class if your going threw something talk to her she will work with you. There is group projects but very easy,one essay paper due, midterm and final were very easy.
Professor Lackey hands down one of the best Professors I've had these past few semesters. Makes the material interesting. Very funny. Few test as long as you study you'll pass. Group Presentations. Attendance and participation matters, do both and you'll get an A.
By far the BEST professor I have ever had. I will take this class all over again. Professor Lackey is the nicest profesor out there. If you put in effort in class you will Definitely get an A+. Highly recommend her 100%
Mrs. Lackey is a great Professor, she will help you as much as you willing to get help. Her speeches are not difficult, just do your work and you will pass. accessible with the assignments but you have to try your best because she is not giving out grades if you don't try.
I've had the pleasure to learn with Prof. Lackey. She is awesome. She is caring and actually wants her students to succeed. She makes things simple. I actually was so anxious taking a speech class but on the first of class with Prof. Lackey, I want to take another one. She will make you comfortable to talk in front in every speech presentation.
I have had over a dozen professors thus far and I can honestly say that Professor Lackey was my favorite. Not only is she compassionate and flexible, she makes this course enjoyable and understandable. As long as you put in effort and make sure to reach out to her if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, you will pass with flying colors.
I took professor Lackey for summer 2019, I honestly wish I would've taken her for a spring/fall semester. She makes every class enjoyable and offers to help if needed.
best professor ever take this class you wont regret it trust me and shes super funny too and gives great advice about life.
Take her, you will not regret it.
let me start by saying shes AMAZIIIING!!! Hands down to one of the best teachers I have ever had. Take it and you wont regret it. I hate talking in public and she made it so easy and fun.
I really enjoyed this class. Professor Lackey always made herself accessible! She even shared her cell phone number! She is very understanding and helpful! I love how relatable she is and how easy to talk to she can be. You would have LACK a lot in order to fail this class because this is an EASY EASY A PLUS A PROFESSOR WHO ACTUALLY CARES!
She is Amazing!! Super understanding and will work with you. She makes it very easy to reach her outside of class. She makes the class engaging and is always happy to help. Definitely recommend taking her class!!! You won't regret it.
Caring, patient, and encouraging. Easy A. would take her for every class if I could.
kept things simple, have to speak in front of people but she would let us reschedule if we weren't ready, very considerate, gave great feedback and attentive
perfect online class , fast paste and easy to work on. no book required or code
Professor Lackey is very nice and this class was one of the best classes I have taken. She really cares about her students and her speech criteria is easy to understand.
I highly recommend Prof Lackey! Trust me she actually cares about you and your grade. Shes also not one of those prof that assign unnecessary work. Everything is for a reason and itll help you in the long run. If you pay attention and do the work I guarantee you will pass. 5 stars all across the board.
She knows what each student needs to be able to pass a class they might not want to take, leaving with skills that'll help them in the future. I'm not kidding.
Professor Lackey was amazing! She cares very much for her students and gives clear instructions and allows you to check your speech with her before you present. I got sick during finals and she was understanding and allowed me to make it up. She gives very clear instructions and outlines exactly how to get a good grades. I would recommend her 10/10
Teacher is great at understanding others and will communicate with if given the chance.
Very respectful. Very easy to communicate with and a blast
16 WK: There are 9 discussion boards and 2 essays that require you to create and submit an outline. The 2 essays/speeches need to be recorded and then submitted. Not too much work.
