TAKE THIS CLASS. If you are worried about public speaking take this online class. You have weekly worksheet to fill out from them book (SO BUY THE BOOK) and then 2 intro video's you have to submit and then just 1 5-7 min. speech in front of an audience of 2 people. He is a great professor! He cares about his students and wants them to succeed!

He is such a great professor! Just one worksheet due each week, which are only 10 questions, straight from the textbook. He gives great feedback for your speech (you only have 1). And, he is always available to email and responds very quickly! Definitely take if you can.

You can tell he's very passionate about the topic. He's interactive w/students & makes lecture easy to listen to. Be aware, there's a total of five 1-3 page papers throughout the semester and for 4/5 papers, everyone was required to present them (nothing too difficult). Dr Wells is overall a great professor!

Super easy grading and never penalizes for being late. He's really nice and cares for his students. Wants to make sure you understand everything. The final is a speech that you record with a 2 person audience. You can BS everything and still pass. thats what i did :)

One of the BEST professors at SCSU. I would recommend him to any student. I took CMST 306 and was one of my favorite classes I have taken. Prof Wells is an easy going guy and will make you laugh. I suggest everybody to take a class from him before you graduate!

He makes coming to class the easiest part of your day. The material isn't extremely hard but he really teaches in a way that you grasp the material the first time you hear it.

If you show up to class and show that you put some sort of effort towards writing your speeches and show that you are trying o get better at public speaking, you will do great in his class. Will Definitely look for him in other CMST classes and recommend him to others.

Dr. Wells is an extremely easy professor to deal with. He's very clear in his demands for the class and what he expects from his students. His class was incredibly easy (permitting you show up to class and turn in the assignments.) Overall, he was definitely the best prof I had that semester.

Great guy, you can tell he loves what he does. He only gave one exam all year. He give out paper assignments, but they are not hard. Some in class movies. Attendance is kinda necessary, but it would be a problem because his class is interesting and he is a great guy!! I would take him again, he is very fair and does not pile on the homework!!

Scott is a great professor! He's super funny and energetic. I'd completely recommend him to anyone. Attendance varied; sometimes he took it, other times not. He went over all of the material which was really helpful. Always held review days before the tests. Ideal professor! Lots of assignments but they weren't too hard.

Professor Wells is wonderful. I would highly recommend him. He is passionate about the subject that he teaches in and likes to maintain a good energy with the class. He is positive and honest. Be sure to keep up in the class because the work can be easy, but you do not want to get behind. He likes to challenge you on research in some speeches.

Scott was super funny and very helpful. He assigns readings and has the occasional quiz. His tests are easy if you pay attention and read the book although I did well and did not read everything. He has random attendance days but most days are not counted. He is very easy to reach and talk to. My favorite professor yet.
