Comment:
He may pick on me and mostly has an eye on me. Hes great and all but could get annoying that he does annoy me so much calling me out and mostly picks me first and I dont like to be picked on.I dont like how he corrects someone with ASD which I do have. Yelling at me because I have ASD. Im a slow learner and he needs to improve to understand me.

Comment:
In my four years of school, I've never dropped a class on day one until I took Professor Miller's class. I did not feel respected by him in the slightest, and did not feel like his material was relevant to me at all. Pacing was also extremely slow. Several of his attempts at humor also made me feel very unwelcome in the class.

If you can't pass his class you're a tonto/a. Take home midterm and final. Plus he gives you excellent feedback on your speeches after delivered in front of the class.

Prof. Miller is one hilarious man! It's a speech class, so be ready to present your speech almost every time you come to class. He gives extra points to people who volunteer to do their speeches. Both Midterm and Final are take-home. Take him! You won't regret it!

This is a speech class so be ready to present your speeches almost every time you attend class. Gives you clear outline of how he wants speeches done all you have to do is fill in the blanks! makes it very simple for you to follow. Memorize you speech, try not to use your flash cards. I suggest you to volunteer to present your speeches. EASY CLASS

He is one hilarious man. I would recommned his class. Keep in mind that it is a speech class and you are expected to participate or you won't pass the class. You are required to give one speech about every other Monday depending on the class size. I bought the book, but you can definitely find online.

Professor Miller was very intimidating at first but loosened up throughout the semester. Plus he's hilarious. Speech outlines are extremely straightforward and easy to follow. Take home midterm and final. P.s. when I took him in the spring, the book was online so look up the book online before buying it.

I took Comm. 101 in the Spring with Professor Miller and he's excellent! His mid-term and final are take-home, so for this reason you will need the textbook. You will present a total of 5 speeches and he gives you ample opportunity to turn in and present your speeches even after the due dates. He comes off like a grumpy old man but he's very nice.

It's the same cycle every Monday. Show up, present, and listen to your fellow classmates. Miller never failed to crack me up. Almost everything he said had me high of laughter. After listening to your speech, he has the audience give feedback, and then he gives his own. He tells you where you went wrong and what you did well. Great professor!

Two words = "take home." Yes, the midterm and final are take home so already, you should be trying to add Mr. Miller. Overall he's a good teacher and the class is straightforward. There's no hw and no need for the book other than for your exams. You'll be giving many speeches though. Just follow his instructions and outline and you'll be fine.
