Reviews of professor Daniel Overton

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Prof. Overton wants his students to succeed. He understands that people taking this introductory Speech and Rhetoric course will not be perfect speakers. He gives good feedback after you give your speech so you understand what you need to improve on, but will not doc your grade severely for those reasons. No busy work. A is easily attainable

Professor Overton is an extremely understanding person. His lectures do tend to be long, but he makes up for it by planning an interactive activity around the end of class. He explains everything well and also uses anecdotes. He grades relatively fair on his speeches. The textbook is not used as much except for the midterm and final.

He is a real nice guy and understands his students. His lectures are fun and interesting. He tells you what is going to be on his midterm and final. The only thing thats hard are the speeches. Thats only because I am a terrible public speaker. He gives great feedback for you to improve on your speeches.

He's a really nice guy and an energetic teacher. The class has lots of activities, most of them enjoyable, and the discussions and lectures are engaging and full of stories and examples. I dreaded the class going in, but it ended up being one of my favorites this semester. I do feel better as a speaker.
