My usual brand of teaching involves a great deal of discussion and hands-on learning. I've done my homework in andragogy (adult learning) and feel confident that you will be able to learn. I trust that you will share with me your thoughts about how your course is fulfilling the goals and how the course might be improved. I value your feedback.

I hope you will enjoy taking my course and that you find that the speech course assists you in becoming a more effective speaker and consumer of rhetoric. I  believe that this course will be as stimulating, challenging, and enjoyable as you make it.
