Doug is the man, a little unorganized at times but if you fail his class or finish with anything lover than a B it wasn't his fault. He does take attendance and it will hurt your grade after 5 I think. He gave 2 tests which were both pie. Just show up, participate and don't be nervous or say "like" a lot and you will love "Doug"

He is funny and very entertaining. He keeps the lessons interesting and relates them directly to you. There's no way you could fall asleep in this class! You don't need a text book either. Also, he gets you familiar with your classmates, which helps a lot with stage fright!

This was the easiest class I've taken in college. It was always entertaining and Doug makes everything easy for you to understand. No real final at all, which is awesome. Super easy test which he pretty much gives you the answers too. I would highly recommend this class I'm an a/b student and I left with a 97

Hott. Hilarious. Smart. And a smarty-pants. He is a director of theater, also. Teaches acting. This class is a breeze if you try, and he makes it easy by getting you to be familiar with your classmates before speaking in front of them. He tells you exactly what's on tests. I could listen to this guy talk all day! Speeches easy. A+.

This professor was very laid back, until the end of the semester. Which he suprised the class with a cumulative exam. Students should take great notes thoughout the semester. He only give five grades,however his class was not hard.

The most chill teachers i met at ASU! funny guy, he wants the class to be active. Tests are super easy cause he basically gives you half of the test problems with the answers to study. Tests easy, multiple choice, you just need to memorize the notes you take. No books needed. Don't be disruptive, or he gets pissed.....but overall, nice and chill!

Doug was so much fun to have, make sure you don't miss too many days, or he will get mad. He is funny and understanding- a really great professor to take! Don't bother buying the book, he doesn't use it.

Great teacher. I was terrified of speeches. I still am afraid, but now I know I can do it. He was great at making you feel as comfortable as possible. He will help you.

If you dont take him you will regret it. He makes you laugh and wakes you up in the morning. His papers are easy, isnt to critical about speeches and test was straight from study guide.

truly a must take class! i'm such a timid person and have always hated to talk in front of groups (big or small) but he helps you through it and gives you great pointers. He's very helpful and makes you feel comfortable. I loved this class, easy A if you show up and listen

He's Very funny and laid back. He makes the class interesting and gets everyone involved in the discussions. Do not buy the book! We did use one AT All! Definately recommend him. I strongly dislike public speaking and still am not a huge fan but he did make me feel comfortable in his class.

The Dougster is awesome!!!! Very laid back and extremely helpful with overcoming fears of public speaking. He is not looking to make you a pro, simply help you improve. No text book needed and his lectures are quite enjoyable. He makes class very fun and enjoyable. Why take anyone else for 1020 if Doug has openings in one of his classes?

Probably the best teacher ive had since ive been in ASU. Hes soo extremely easy, hes such a down-to-earth person and hes really funny. I think the only possible way to get lower than a C is if you dont do your work, dont show up for class, and dont pay attention. All of his tests are based on his lectures... never bought or used the book...

Good professor, students hardly use the book and he tells you that you may not need to buy it. There are 2 speeches, one midterm, and a rediculously easy final. He doesn't grade roughly. Just do the speeches on time and an easy A.

He is a great professor. I was nervous to speak in front of people which I can now do because of him. Take him, you will not regret it. I passed with a B. He makes the course fun and is very laid back. Highly recommended.
