What suggestions would you make to improve this discussion section?
Doesn't need to explain small things for a long period of time.
I have no suggestions, he did an excelent job.
I would provide more time for extra speeches instead of lectures and work days. Holman: I found a way to do this and it worked well. Thank you.
I would suggest not having it on a Friday because nobody shows up on Fridays.
Maybe have this class more
More lecture
None, Holman was amazing!
Nothing but praise for Holman. I enjoyed discussion MUCH more than lecture, and learned more in discussion than by Diana.
One of the best class, can't think of any
everything was good
let discussion section replace lecture
I think that maybe if we used more electronic tools
I would challenge Holman to use power point more. having the topics on the board would help the class to stay on topic, also it helps me with notes and discussions in a way that is hard to describe Holman: Done
More organized form of attendance taking Holman: Done
No suggestions on improving. By far one of my favorite classes and discussion teachers.
Not have people do their speeches the day before thanksgiving as this makes it hard for them to get to see family if they live far away. Holman hears you, he will do his best
There is not much I would improve everything went smoothly.
better organization when selecting student order of speech giving. Holman: Done

He was always very helpful, wanting to do whatever he could to help everyone in class get a good grade
Holman is the best TA I ever saw, and his class is so fun and interest. I love to be in his class.
Holman is the best teacher I have ever had at the University of Arizona, in regards to treating me with respect, having an ENJOYABLE class, and actually teaching the material. He connects with his students on an incredible level, and is 110% dedicated to ensuring everyone succeeds, and has the information and tools to do so.
Holman's enthusiasm and positivity radiated to our entire discussion section. he always gave amazing feedback that both lifted us up but helped us improve aswell

The TA of this class always showed excitement during this course and always made sure we were engaged. His examples for any confusion in the class was very well explained.
The easy environment and positive attitude The environment, it was frendly and adequate to the situation. The intructor was a key of that environment.

I loved that whenever i came into the class room i was treated with respect and support. This teacher does a great job of making a tense experience, like public speaking and makes you feel as if you can accomplish anything you put your mind to.
My teacher was amazing! I really learned in this class.
There was never any "busy work", everything we did & was expected of us had a purpose it didn't feel like work
Holman was fantastic
Keep teaching how you are teaching now
Holman was truly an inspiration. His excitement and passion for teaching and helping his students become better speakers, and better people, was genuine and probably far under recognized.

Best teacher I have had at the U of A
Great course overall.
I really enjoyed this course and found Holman to be an excellent instructor!
One of my favorite professors, class was greatly organized. felt welcome in discussion and material was taught with great enthusiasm and was easily shown that professor is passionate about the subject
Excellent TA. Best TA I've ever had
Give this man a raise.
Great
Had a great time in this class.
Holman is a wonderful TA and an excellent discussion director. He really enhanced my learning experience and is one of the best instructors I have had here at the U of A. He is a genuinely kind man who knows a lot about the topic and only wants his students to do well. He cares more about the students learning concepts and how to speak publicly rather than his own personal agenda. I love Holman and everyone who has him as their discussion director in the future is very lucky.
Holman was one of the best teachers I have ever had! He clearly cares about all of his students and he always seemed to put in the time to help each student out individually. For example, when my graded assignments were returned, they had paragraphs of suggestions for me to improve and I have never seen a teacher put in so much effort to help me out. I greatly appreciate him!
I enjoyed this discussion
Mr. Holman is one of the most outstanding professor I have seen.
The intructor was always helpful, he expressed with passion, he show good rates and body language. Good organization. Excellent teacher. Good luck in the future
great instructor. makes the university look great i liked my discussion teacher, Holman, he was very kind and always positive; a good teacher.
As i said in question 35, Keep this guy! He genuinely cares about his students and loves being able to help us. A teacher who actually cares at the U of A?? You gotta keep this guy!
Holman Meyerhoffer could have not done any better of a job than he did he was a fantastic TA who genuinely cared about the class.
