Comment:

She's one of my favorite profs. Very funny and gives short lectures with class activities that are really fun. Tests are 20-25 questions and straight from the book with a written part from lecture. She grades a little tough on speeches, but otherwise just do your work and you'll be fine. She also has peer critiques that are worth 150 pts do them.

Comment:

Great professor and a nice person. A few enjoy interactive classes this is the one for you. Only warning, she is a stickler about attendance and zero tolerance on late work. If you show up for class and get your work done on time you will enjoy it this class and probably get a good grade.

Comment:

She makes public speaking a fun class. The tests and quizzes are easy if you know the definitions in the book. Class is more interactive then lecture heavy. She is a pretty hard grader on speeches. A really good speech normally gets a low A. Make an effort to be nice to her and participate, it will be worth it. She assigns very little homework too!

Professor Hallquist is literally the nicest person ever. She never lectures for more than 10 minutes and always has engaging activities. You'll end up knowing everyone in the class super well! Just read the book, do her assignments and participate and you won't regret it. Very fun and engaging!

Comment:

I would definitely recommend her for public speaking! She knows that it can be a nerve wrecking experience, so she does many exercises to get the classes acquainted with one another. I have social anxiety and she made me feel very comfortable in the class. She is extremely funny and down to earth. Quizzes are basically directly from the book.

Professor Hallquist is a pretty good teacher! She doesn't like to lecture, so you won't get 50 minutes of straight talking. She usually incorporates fun speaking excersises, like tongue twisters and charades. As long as you do what she tells you, you'll do fine in this class.

I've been through 3 colleges thus far and Beth on of the greatest professors I've had the pleasure of coming across. There are ALWAYS "Funtivities" and she loves sports (especially the UF Gators) 10 out of 10!

Her test questions had NOTHING to do with what she told you to study. You could of memorized all the chapters and the questions are impossible. I did well on all the papers and her several projects and she gave me a B. I know I deserved an A!

I absolutely loved taking this class and wouldn't recommend taking it with anyone besides Beth Hallquist. She was funny and made the class fun, which was quite an accomplishment seeing as how nobody wanted to take that class!
