Most caring, kind, and honest teacher. Yes, she grades slow but it's because she has so many classes. She really cares about participation because she wants to get to know everyone. Lots of group activities that are fun and create a friendly and comfortable environment to have presentations. I had a lot of fun and got out of my comfort zone.10/10

DO NOT TAKE HER, I repeat do not. I dont know why there are so many positive comments. Dont be fooled. She is a tough grader, a lot of work, and her assignment instructions are so unorganized and unclear. If youre in online, DO NOT TAKE HER. Respect yourself.

Took her last semester and genuinely loved the class. The projects were fun and taught me a lot of how to public speak. I did initially take this class because it was required, but I ended up learning a lot. Participation matters though so don't think you can slink in the back of the class.

I was nervous about taking her 8 week online course (COVID) but I am so happy that I did! The speeches were less than 5 minutes each and she gave us options on what topic to speak about on each "challenge". No textbook required, she provided weekly WRLs to watch and get tips to better your speeches. TAKE HER CLASSSSSSS!

Prof. Boyd is an excellent teacher. She will help you get over any communication pet peeves that you may have. There are solo and group speeches you have to prepare for. She is a bit emotional at times in her classes, which may affect someone who is not sympathetic. Overall the good outweighs the bad. Make sure you pick the right group members!

This class and professor is a joke. She clearly lacks self confidence and feels like she's at a disadvantage in life based on her “poor me” rants and the way she talks down to kids in class. She spoke very little about communications and talked mostly about racial injustice and politics. She treats students like highschoolers and abuses her power

I love this professor! She is so sweet, caring, honest, and a great teacher! She actually cares about her students and she takes the time to really get to know you. You have to be willing to be vulnerable. You won't regret taking this class. I would take it again if I could.

Amazing, young, and very understanding!

She is a great professor but it feels more of a counseling class then anything. If you want to keep your personal life to yourself I would not recommend. But she truly cares for her class respecting one another.
