Reviews of professor Howard Silverberg

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
He requires 2 individual speeches,1 group speech, you pick TedTalks and discuss their public speaking performance for homework . Quizzes werent hard, but some questions were difficult to determine what he was looking for in an answer. He was informative,knowledgeable,argumentative and cocky. He pushed his personal agenda and own political views.

He makes this class very easy. 3 major speeches, put in the effort and come well prepared for your speeches. As a professor, he is mostly nice but do not take him unless you can handle some bias. He will favor certain things based on his own beliefs and opinions, but not to an unethical point. He is slightly aggressive and very straight forward.

He was the worst teacher I've ever had. He had an undying condescending tone; I truly think it was his goal to make you feel stupid, not to teach. When he wasn't belittling you, he was extremely hypocritical, telling you not to use placeholders, yet using them himself. But by far the worst thing was the constant, insensitive agenda pushing.

Overall not a bad teacher, but his joke are no fun and him treating people is really rude especially those who walk in late. He's a communication professor and doesn't know how to communicate with people respectfully.
