Comes off as VERY stuck up and petty. He will pick on certain students that he does not like and it shows in their grades and in class. He also has very specific ways he likes things to be written that don’t make sense in the real world. It’s a shame because this should be a fairly straightforward and informative course, but he was somehow able to make it a massive headache. |

I would take Professor Grossman with some caution if you are looking for an incredibly easy A (which in this case is at least a 94%). I had many instances where I felt like points were taken from me for reasons that were either arbitrary or not even relevant to the rubric. There are weekly quizzes on the textbook (which is otherwise irrelevant to the course), and they only have one attempt. This was frustrating because the answers would sometimes be unclear or not match up with what the book said. Despite all of this, I do want to mention that he's a good person, and I enjoyed coming to class because he tried his best to make it less boring. I also really appreciated the time he took to write his extensive feedback, even if I didn't always agree with it. |

Chill professor and workload was very manageable as a stem major. As someone that's terrible at public speaking and gets nervous pretty easily I would say I came out of this class as a better public speaker. He does activities at the beginning of the semester to make the class get to know each other, and some classes he made us do mini-speeches which were less than a minute long but really do help you get over the fear of speaking in front of an audience. Lets class out early sometimes and made some classes asynchronous towards the end of the semester. The only complaint I really have is that he doesn't put the due date for assignments on ELMS so you have to either remember what he sets in class or go into the syllabus and check. Grading was very lenient though, as long as you put in effort into your speeches and get your attendance points you'll get an A with Dr. Grossman. |

Terrific professor and a great guy. It's obvious that he cares a lot about his students and is genuinely invested in your success at public speaking. Classes end early a lot, he is flexible with due dates, and pretty lenient with grading. Attendance is mandatory though and will hurt your grade if you don't go! |

Great professor, very knowledgeable when it comes to communication. He is always willing to help you if you have any questions or need feedback on your speeches. Fair grader imo. Attendance counts towards your grade, but there were many in-class activities that made the subject fun. |

Such a chill guy. Really funny and an interesting lecturer, and he's so understanding. He lets class out early a lot of the time and pushes back due dates. Speeches are all pretty easy and he's a lenient grader. |

I loved Professor Grossman, he's one of my favorite teachers I've ever had. The class is focused on 3 main speeches, which he gives you plenty of time to prepare and is fairly generous with grading. He gives class time sometimes to work on your presentations, and is clear with instructions. I would recommend this class to anyone looking for an easy A, as long as you can put the work in with those 3 main speeches, and the workload is very light. |

Awful teacher. Stuck up and irritating. Boring lectures. Grades hard for no reason. Miss one class and lose 10% on your monthly attendance grade. Unless you are willing to spend as much time on COMM 107 as any other major related class, your likelihood of getting an A is microscopic with this moron. |

I love Professor Grossman. He was one of the best professors that I have had at maryland. He made public speaking fun and gave great feedback. I am really not a great public speaker but Professor Grossman really cares about his students and wants them to do well. He was so supportive and extremely generous and helpful. I love this man. Take this class when you need to fulfill your public speaking requirement. Grossman is HIM! |

Great professor! Totally recommended. Very friendly guy and approachable. He’s always super lenient and understanding with accommodations. Made the lectures more like fun conversations rather than lectures. Also an extremely fair grader! |

If you need this class, take Dr. G. He’s a fair grader, very understanding, and overall just a cool guy. Plus, I saw an improvement in my public speaking. I recommend him 100%. |

Easy quizzes, fun teacher, chill with deadlines and work. He actually likes teaching and he lets you use your laptop during speeches. |

He is very nice and genuinely cares about his students. The assignments are pretty chill because you get top pick your own topic for each type of speech/presentation. Lectures are very engaging and he doesn't give busy work. A lot of group work is probably the only negative, but that's probably the case in any COMM107 class because the classes are small (~30 ppl in mine). |

Excellent comm107 professor. Fair grader and very helpful. I definitely did get better at public speaking and he gave good advice. He'll help you work through your speech at office hours if you go to them. Made a painful class much more bearable |
