Literally so easy and relatable. Ends class around 30-45 mins early because she cuts through the BS. Very accommodating and makes everyone feel welcome.

Olivia is the best! She is super funny, chill, and relatable. COMM107 can seem like an intimidating course, but she made it super managable. There are 3 in-person speeches: informative, persuasive, and a group presentation. The final is virtual and SUPER low-stakes. Class literally never went the full 1 hr 15 min and there were a lot of classes that ended being held through zoom. I highly recommend Olivia if you are able to take her.

Super easy prof, but you don't learn anything.

Olivia is a really great professor! She makes class engaging and knows what she is talking about. I personally hate public speaking, but Olivia made it manageable and was very supportive of all of us and genuinely wanted us to do our best.

Easy course. Chill and easy going professor. Will give you time extension if you ask her. Makes Friday lectures online and keeps the workload light.

Olivia is a fantastic professor. She is friendly, flexible on extensions, and very funny. Well-organized class. There is an online textbook used for quizzes, but quizzes are online.

One of my favorite professors here at UMD. Is super sweet, generous, friendly and approachable. Gives you extensions if needed and is super relatable. 10/10 loved her and the course!

She's a great professor. Her quizzes and home work are fairly easy. Expect a lot of presentations but it's because this is a communication class other than that this is an easy class.
