Comment:

Paul is great! He's funny, keeps you entertained! this is not a boring class! you start out the semester with an A, so just come to all classes, do all the work, and study for the tests! This class is easy to pass! Yes he does talk a lot, but this is a COMM class ppl. You are learning how to deal with COMMUNICATION.

Comment:

Very unprofessional! Speaks his opinion WAY too much! He started talking about politics, he is not suppose to do that. Very forgetful and lazy. He makes you write a "growth paper" and he doesn't even properly grade it. He just gives you full credit for doing it. What's the point writing a paper if he's not really going to grade. Waste of time. BS!

Comment:

I learned nothing. He never lectured. All he did was give us two books to read, I could done that on my free time. He takes points away if you miss class, which sucks because you do nothing in class. You just sit there and listen to students deliver speeches, not the best way to learn anything. Honestly, the worst experience teacher here

Comment:

Just horrible, never lectured, useless class. He picked on students in front of class, especially when they turned in "sloppy work," not very ethical in my opinion. Honestly, I learned nothing. Also, he can care less about students opinions.

Comment:

He's such a nice and funny guy. Take Comm 8 and you'll pass it easily. There's HW every week, 1 group project, 2 midterms and 1 final. Show up every lecture and you won't have to take the final. other than that there's food in the class to enjoy. if you don't miss more than 20 points,then you will pass his class with an A.

Comment:

Hmm..I started out the semester excited about Sanders, but I ended up being disappointed. If you pick a controversial topic for your speech that he's on the other side of, he'll pick on you in front of the class. Also he tends to be quite disorganized. Classes aren't very useful. There are other comm teachers at WVC that are way better than him.

Paul is a great teacher. He lays all assignments out at the beginning of the semester, so there is no way you can really miss one. Every thing he teaches is clear and all class activities are fun and meaningful. TAKE THIS CLASS!

Comment:

An amazingly good teacher who loves what he does. Overall, I thought this class was a bit more of a challenge compared to the Comm 01 class that I took last Spring, but still a real good class. Unlike most teachers he actually teaches and you're able to learn something.

Comment:

He's a really sweet teacher who easily makes you laugh. The only thing you have to worry about is constantly keeping track of your homework. If you do it all, you pass easily. If you try to slide by, it doesn't work. The only thing is is that he's easily disappointed if you don't do your work, right or at all. Overall, great teacher!

Just a really good teacher overall. He's definitely somebody that I would recommend to others. His grading system is fair and you just have to make sure you do well on all the speeches and do the homework.

Comment:

If you're taking a class with him, make sure you're on time and actually go. So many people in the class ended up with bad grades because they didn't do the assignments or turned them in late. Stay on top of the homework, there isn't much. Overall I really liked him. He wants to help his students.

Comment:

I hate public speaking, but it is mandatory to take, so if you are like me I would RECOMMEND Sanders. He is really nice, and he grades fairly and on progression. He also starts you off in small groups and then puts you infront of the class, so its a great transition. Basically he is great!!!

Comment:

SO Boring, he takes way too much time to talk about himself, and HIS experiences. It gets boring so fast, and I left early everyday, and even if you talk for a small second, he'll stop and let you know how "disrespectful" your being. Kinda mean, and boring,
