Comment:

Easiest Speech teacher everr! I think its his last year teaching at Chabot. Public Speaking is still one of my biggest fears even after taking his class but Im glad I took him because he was very easy going. No Speech structure required. Just turn in your Speech outline before giving your speech. NO need to buy book never used it.

Can I say that if you are not looking forward to taking a speech class,then take him!! he is super easy! No HMWRK! only turn in your outline when you have todo a speech.He doesn't assign a speaking order. He is easily sidetrack all the time! We have no books nor do you take notes. So if you want a easy A then take him!!

Mr. Arovola is the best speech teacher! He is relaxed and helpful! He makes this terrifying class easy and fun! He lectures a lot and his teaching style is to basically make you feel comfortable in the class so you can actually deliver a decent speech! Also show up because he seems to keep track in his mind. No HW either easy A or atleast a B!

I have a little issue with this teacher. He has a great personality and is really easygoing. but I got an 'A' grade on every speech i did, however he gave me a B- in the class. I think it's because on the last day of class i told him it was fun, and he said 'you probably ****ted the speeches' but i didn't understand what he said and said 'yea'

Very easy class. He is a very laid back and easy going teacher. Sometimes a little moody especially when it comes to cell phones going off in class. I hate doing speechs but this class was a breeze. We had to do 4 speeches with outlines. He goes off subject alot so try to do your speeches first just so you don't run out of time. Easy A!!

Excellent teacher. I suggest you sit in the front row and engage a conversation with him. Tells alot of the same stories, however is very entertaining. Probably the best teacher I have ever had. Course was really easy

Comment:

He is a great teacher. I was absolutely mortified of taking speech but after my first one I felt a lot better. He doesn't grade hard as lonf as you turn in a good outline & stay on topic you'll get good grades on your speeches. You don't need to buy the book, I didn't and I did just fine in the class.

Best speech teacher. Im the kind of guy who hates talking in front of the class, but he made it as comfortable as you can get making a speech. Just please don't bore the class by reading and dont be afraid to act a little silly because it'll just make the speech more enjoyable for you and everyone else in the class! Man im gunna miss this class!!

this was an enjoyable class. sadly he is going to return in a year. so you better take his class while you still can! he is such a fantastic teacher. gives you an outline to follow so you know how to structure it. Its nerve wrecking onc eyou deliver your speech but after a while its not a big deal. everyone feels like that. its an easy A and fun!

Comment:

well he was all right. He just did not tell us how he wanted the speech to be presented in order to get an A. I ended up getting a B. I think that was from doing a speech too fast. If u do it in 8 mins than i think u would get an A. =/ Anyways, he is easy and i am shy so if i can get a good grade than anyone can.

I love this teacher. I was really nervous about speaking in front of the class, but he always breaks the ice with stories and getting the class to talk. All u need to do is go to class and put in effort. He likes u to interact w his stories. Show the class respect and he will show u the same. I got A's accross the board. Show effort and go to class
