An absolute wonderful teacher! She is always willing to help you and has such a positive attitude. There are no surprises in this class, she is straightforward. She makes public speaking less nerve wracking and reinforces ALOT. Awesome teacher and good person. Just put forth the effort and you'll get alot out of this class.

Prof. Jersey is SO sweet. She understands that people are intimidated by public speaking and makes every efford to help students with it. She had us play games and do group work, so our class really bonded and enjoyed each other, making our speeches easier. I describe her this way: caring, nurturing, kind, and understanding. Definitely take her.

Tests can be difficult but she goes over material the class before the test. If you show up and give an effort, you should do fine. Not an easy a, but an A is very manageable. Offer to be a class leader, there is academic compensation.

Prof Jersey was extremely sweet. She is very approachable and grades easily. All you have to do is turn in your work, attend clas and participate in the group projects and it's an easy A. She goes over everything that will be on tests and always posts a study guide. In order to get that A, studying is highly recommended for tests.

Jersey is THE BEST! Take her if you can. Easy class, make sure you pick your group for 2 projects wisely. 3 exams, study powerpoint notes from WEBCT, and if you miss more than 3 days she takes off points. But the class is interesting, and easy so go! I have the book and will have used it twice the whole semester. You should buy the workbook though.

she is really passionate about what she does. this class is super simple. take good notes but dont bother trying to copy the slide because she goes too fast. write down every example she talks about because itll be on the test. only 3 tests and theyre online so you can look at your notes. no absenses extra credit. "big" group project wasnt hard.

Jersey is a great lady. She wants you to get a good grade. Apply to be a group leader. She gives 40 extra credit points to her group leaders and she learns who you are so if you are borderline on a grade, she will bump you most likely. Her tests are online and if you use the powerpoints you should do just fine. I highly recommend her.

If you do poorly on a test go to office hours. You will go over test questions and by the end of the session earn points toward your overall test grade. Do the Concept Review Sheets for the tests! It is the difference between a failing grade and an A. All tests are online and the group project is a piece of cake. Attendance is Mandatory!

Watch out for the first test, Show up everyday and take ALL her notes (including her class exercises) it WILL be on her tests. The first test is gonna feel rough but this class is so easy once you figure out how to take her notes. The tests are online. I recommend trying to be a group leader for the bonus points. She's kinda quirky but fun.

If you need help in her class GO TO HER! I got a 60 on a participation exercise and when I told her my group wouldn't let me participate and had members of my group back me up she gave me an 80 instead. Bring a laptop to class she does online powerpoints, and if you are told to get the Thinking Through Coms textbook DONT BUY IT its the slides.

She's a sweetheart, she really is. But she has a hard time conveying what she is trying to say (ironic) and her presentations are so incredibly boring. You have to mindlessly fill in-the-blanks on downloadable presentations and the only captivating part of the class is the entertaining skits she has people do. Nonetheless it's required, oh well.

absolutely hate her, I do not know how you guys rated her this highly. I chose her solely on the rating on this website, she's been absolute hell. making a BS class more complicated than it should be, better not plan skipping class or you won't get credit for taking the class, oh and also she's a complete jerk if you talk to her 1 on 1.

This class is soooo easy. You do not need a textbook for this class. Show up, bring your laptop( fill in the blank notes), and get ready for group projects! You get extra credit just for showing up, become a group leader if you can(then you get even more extra credit). Kind of boring, but easy. Take it.

She's a great professor! Her powerpoint notes are easy to follow, and her online tests come (mostly) directly from them. There is one group project, but it's not bad at all. Overall, this class gave me very little stress the entire semester. Also, she cancels class from time to time. Definitely take her.

Super fun class! Be sure to take detailed notes when she goes over the powerpoints, she gives online tests that are almost word for word what she said during lectures. They can be tough without good notes though. Be a group leader! It's super easy and gives you extra points.

When I sprained my ankle and could not go to class for a day, she took my late homework and even gave me a hug. She is the sweetest and is a great person. She is funny and tries to relate to us young people. Not an amazing teacher but a great time. Just review the powerpoints and you will do fine.

I have never had a professor as willing to work with her students as she is. I took this class based on a personal recommendation. She expects her students to come to class or if you must miss just let her know. I thought each class is very engaging and I was constantly laughing. Leaned very applicable knowledge for real world.
