Comment:

This class had a decent amount of notes due, but she gives you a manageable time to complete them. I missed about half this semester due to personal reasons, but Roxanne was very understanding/easy to work with as long as I communicated with her. She was also very forgiving on late assignments. Quizzes you were guaranteed an A (study guide).

Prof. Tuscany is a gem among the rest. She is open to dialogue and sees nuance in thought as a positive. I took her for an intensive 4 week this summer and it was truly engaging. I walked out of that class a changed person. Do the assignments (notes), prepare your speeches and stick to the outline. The rest is having fun and exchanging ideas.

I had Roxanne for a year while on the Speech and Debate Team. She's tough. She will push you to do your very best, no matter how scary that is to you, but you will succeed. She pushed me, and I am definitely a better person for it.

She has said herself that her grading is "subjective", and that "if you don't look nervous or I think you're a good speaker I will grade you harder than someone else." She gives you a clear outline for you speeches, and just follow that exactly and you will do fine. When she lectures she will often talk down to students as a whole .

Ms. Tuscany is VERY passionate about communication. I took her during the summer for an intense 4 weeks, but I really enjoyed the class. Her grading consists of speeches, textbook notes, and critiques. She is very clear in her outline procedures for speeches. She gives good feedback and is very encouraging. I plan on taking her again.

She is one of my favorite professors I've had at Grossmont College. I had her for two comm classes and she was great in both of them! There was no finals in her classes and the tests she gave were always easy! She is great at really explaining the curriculum. You can definitely tell she wants all her students to do well. Take her class!!

Only writing this review because she doesn't deserve an A grade. If you question any of her points she will continuously argue with you for the rest of the semester, and make your life hell. If you're a sheep who always goes along with what the teacher says, go for it and take her, she's an easy A. But there's no leadership in indifference.

This was a very creative class. And fun! The instructor was pretty helpful, and gives detailed feedback. She does not require a textbook, which is always a nice plus. She is also VERY lenient on grading and late assignments, so if you're a slacker, you're better off with her. But just like all communication classes, expect a lot of participation.

Professor Tuscany was overall a very good and helpful teacher. Depending on your classmates her lectures can be either pain free or it could consist of a long argument. She often engaged students in off topic debate style conversations during lecture, which I found distracting and irritating. But she is very sweet, smart and helpful.

Shes an excellent teacher! Very passionate about communication. Her class was enjoyable and all she asks of you is to respect each other and the class. You know exactly whats due and when, there are no surprises. Go to class, turn in assignments, and you have an A. Highly recommend taking her.

This class was easy and fun at times. She tends to talk a lot and get off topic, that's really the only negative thing I can say. The HW was super simple, had a study guide for every quiz, the "final" paper was easy too, and working in small groups turned out to be kind of interesting, and made class go by quick!

Nice teacher, does get off topic sometimes but is overall easy to understand and talk to. Lots of not taking but if you like to write you will do ok.
