She gives little to no information on anything, her 'lectures' are just rambling, extremely eccentric lady, only way to pass is if you can replicate her insane prose and arguments, which she seems to like. Plus side, all readings are provided. Shoutout for that but everything else was a nightmare. Sure she is a nice lady, but bad class.

Tough grader, definitely not an easy A. Professor Enders cares about her students and even takes the time to get to know everyone by name. Class may be difficult for a first time public speaker, but you will gain lots of knowledge and your confidence will grow by the end of the ten weeks! Highly recommend.

Okay, a lot of these other reviews will say Professor Enders is horrible, but I had a really good experience with her. She really cares about how well her students learn to speak, and if you truly participate and learn from the lectures, you'll do just fine, I promise. She's very accessible and willing to answer questions during office hours.

She was alright. I was scared to take her class because of all the poor reviews but she wasnt too bad. Speeches are due like every week, but only two of them are in main lecture and there were only two tests.

Although shes outgoing and lively, her lectures are boring and difficult to follow. She says she wants a speech one way and then criticizes it and now wants it done another way. Almost impossible to get an A, her and her TAs expect too much from 1st time public speakers, especially during the 1 min speeches. It taught me a lot, but wouldnt retake

Professor Enders is by far the worst professor I have ever had. She gives unclear prompts for any major assignment. She is very unorganized and her lectures are hard to follow and make no sense. This feels more like an English class than anything. I would definitely never take, or recommend anyone, take a course with woman ever again.

Dr. Enders is a theatrical anomaly. Though entertaining to watch and extremely eccentric, probably one of the worst professors I have ever had. She does not provide any guidance or help in prep for exams. Does not post grades online. Hourly exam is a randomly chosen essay on one of 10 readings (30-100 pages each) or off an interview. Don't take.

Super tough class to do well in. Even though this is one of the only intro to public speaking classes at UCSB, Professor Enders expects you to be naturally be William Wallace once you get to the front of the class to deliver your speech. Also you run around the entire section classroom to "warm up" before your speech. beware.

Okay so she's whacky, no doubt. Entertaining woman. You might think she's crazy and think about dropping at the beginning-- but stay in the class. She is a genuine woman and if your wanting to improve your public speaking skills, you'll inevitably achieve that in this class

DON'T TAKE HER CLASS YOU WILL REGRET IT. I have no idea who gave her a PhD and let her teach at UCSB. I have never left a review on here but this time I genuinely feel the need to warn y'all about her. She is so attention-needy and yells at people who are not making eye contact with her or interrupts students when they're talking. AVOID AT ALL COST

Wow, so I feel like everything needs to be about her. She loves to interrupt students when they are supposed to speak. She freaks out when the attention is not on her. If it's not about her, it's wrong. She is kind of annoying because of this,.. just VERY ECCENTRIC. It's almost pathologic. don't take her.

CRAZY. HARD. CRAZY HARD. i usually dont complain but this was bad enough for me to open rate my professors and warn you about her. I dont care if you have to take a fifth year if you dont take her class- do that instead.
