Reviews of professor Daniela Johnson-Rongstad

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Awesome professor. She grades and responds really quick. Assignments and quizzes aren't hard. Make sure to check if the quizzes have more than one attempt. You have small and big speeches. As long you follow her directions and include them in your speech, you should be fine. May lose points on pace, volume, rate, but you'll learn how for next time.

Public speaking was never my favorite thing but Prof. Daniela made it so much easier. Around 3-4 small assignments every week, then 4 major speeches total throughout the semester. She is so easy to reach and will answer any questions at almost anytime! Def would recommend her class!

- 2 quizzes weekly (vids and articles)
- 4 big speeches 
- 3 intro speeches 
- ESL friendly - just com. with her! txt/call
- Very responsive in text rather than email (don't be afraid to do so)
- MOST OF ALL!!! READ THE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY ON EVERY HW!!!

Prof. Rongstad was definitely one of the best professors I had! She gives a lot of work, but It's an easy A as long as you follow her instructions. She will definitely reach out when you need to clarify anything. Just make sure you follow the instructions and submit the requirements on time.

She made an online public speaking class incredibly effective and understandable. She was highly communicative when you were coming up on a due date, or missing an important assignment. Lectures were not difficult and she provides pdfs of the slideshow for you to take notes and follow along.

Daniela is one of the best professors I've had. AMAZING feedback, motivational, easy to contact. Wants you to succeed! 4 formal speeches, few intro. speeches, and 2-3 assignments per week. All formal speeches: uploaded to DB's, then peer reviewed. Make sure you double, triple check all rubrics as there are specific guidelines. You'll lose points!

Daniela was so supportive and encouraging. She's great at communicating the expectations and is always willing to help. I love that she allows you to text message her and replies within a few hours. If you need to take public speaking, take her class! not many extra credit opportunities and late policy is tight so stay on top of the assignments.

One of the best professors I've come across! Great personality, easy to reach-out to, constantly reaches out to make sure you're doing well, multiple extra credit opportunities, and just putting in the effort and participating will get you far!
