Very good teacher, I have him for public speaking and its true he does grade hard but thats what a good teacher does. He pushes you to get better and if your not ready to take the time to improve dont bother learning from his wisdom you dont deserve it. His lectures are amazing and I always feel engaged in topics. Also alot of good videos to boot.

Comment:

Public Speaking- Tough class, I will probably pass with a B though. He is a tough grader on speeches, but he does give good feedback and will help you if you need it. Make sure to just do what he says for the speeches, movement, eye contact, etc. Only 2 tests and 3 speeches so do good on the tests! They're mostly all vocab too.

Comment:

Comm 100 was super easy. As long as you read the chapters, which are actually interesting in this book, and study the vocab, you'll pass with an A. Attendance is mandatory but it was a lecture class so I had my friend sign me in a couple times and he doesn't notice. There's only 3 tests though so make sure to not bomb the first one!

I have had Dr. Esposito for at least 7 or 8 classes since my freshmen year. He is a fantastic professor and a great guy all around. Very intellectual and thought provoking in his classes, and always willing to help or give extra days to turn in assignments when you ask or if you are having trouble. He's a bit eccentric but is the MAN!

Dr. Esposito is the man. He is a great professor, he is a little all over the place in his lectures, but he likes to create class discussion, and all his classes are interesting and require some effort but are usually fun and educational.

Took him for human comm. Tells funny stories and is super relatable. He gives you a study guide so as long as you understand the material you'll pass. He will always help clarify any concepts.

Very passionate and articulate. The more engaged the students are, the more you'll get out of his class. You WILL be a better speaker for taking his class!

I've had the pleasure of taking two of Dr. Esposito's classes. He's a great guy and always willing to help outside of class time, regardless of his office hours. Tests are mainly memorization of material. If you don't show up to class, you won't know anything because he does not put his powerpoints online. Overall great class and professor!

Easily the best professor i've ever had at Edinboro. I learned so much in all of Dr. Esposito's classes. He really is passionate about what he teaches. Great guy, and isn't afraid to ask controversial questions to his students. I highly recommend him

Comment:

Ugh. He teaches numerous classes - if you aren't a comm major, you will be shocked when you realize you are supposed to know things that he is teaching in other classes! His study guide makes reference to theories and theorists that were never in his lectures or in the book. More scatter-brained than any other teacher I have ever had.

He is really nice, but super scatter-brained! He is all over the place, his power points are random thoughts, no sentences..He does give a study guide which helps you to understand his crazy thought pattern! Again, super nice though.

Comment:

Had him for public speaking. Very boring, grades hard, tests are hard and expects a lot from the speeches. Doesn't know the meaning of "rhetorical" among other things. One of my least favorite teachers of the semester.But he doesn't take attendance, so that helped.

Comment:

No textbook for my class, all the notes were on his power point. If you take all the notes & do the study guide, you will pass with flying colors. He seems to talk very fast, and if he engages the class in a question & no one answers, he will just slip over the topic. But, take him & engage in the discussions, it only helps you more!
