This was one of my first classes I have taken at UCLA. Since it is a speech class, I was definitely nervous, but this nervousness went away after literally the first day. From the get go, he goes over everything you will be doing over the quarter. The class consists of 3 speeches that are around 5-7 mins each (biography, informative, and persuasive), and a paper in which you analyze a speaker (4-7 pages). The lowest grade I received on a speech was a 95 on my first one. From there on I got 100s on all of the assignments- including the paper. Kochian is a very fair grader and the assignments are incredibly easy and flexible. He goes out of his way to make everyone feel comfortable and has a lighthearted and endearing spirit about him. I am extremely glad I took this class with this professor, he definitely made it worthwhile. Of course this was during COVID so it was a bit easier, but I learned a lot about how to perfect my own public speaking. Overall, I enjoyed the class and would encourage everyone to take it with him for an easy A and caring professor.

Kochian is awesome. he is such an easygoing professor and very approachable, which is super helpful in a class that can be daunting for a lot of people. We had to do 3 speeches throughout the quarter, one of them about 2 minutes long, one of them 6-7 minutes, and the last one 5-6 minutes so they are not too long. He does require a course reader, but you can buy older versions and they still work because all of the content is the same. Kochian likes everyone and pretty much wants to give an A to everyone, you just have to show up to class. Great class and GE if you don't mind public speaking (or just want to get better, or a requirement for you) because almost everyone in the class gets an A. I wouldn't want to take Comm 1 with anyone other than Kochian, because he provides the most relaxed atmosphere.

Selling the course reader.

I bought it used from the UCLA store. I only used it whenever we had to do presentations, so it's in very good condition. It's version 12, but Professor Kochian said at the begging of the quarter that you can use either 12 or 14 for his course. I got 12 because it was the same thing and around $30 cheaper.

$20, but price is negotiable.

The professor is really understanding and chill. He emphasizes a lot on eye-contact during speech. I think as long as you don't read much during the speech, you will get a really high score regardless of your content or delivery. Be prepared for the three speeches, and you get an easy A.

He is super chill and as long as you practice your speeches you will be fine.
