Dr Akil's way of teaching public speaking made me feel more comfortable speaking in front of others The concepts and things learned in class taught me that there was a whole lot more to presenting an effective speech

You rock

Dr Akil is a great teacher I was worried I would not make it through this class because I have anxiety and do not like speaking in front of people He made it easier for me to speak in front of others For that I am grateful
