What does a speech professor do?

A Speech Professor teaches courses in speech communication, public speaking, rhetoric, and related subjects at the college or university level. They develop curricula, deliver lectures, guide classroom discussions, and assess student performance.

Speech Professors often encounter the challenge of addressing varying levels of public speaking experience and language proficiency among students. Balancing the needs of confident speakers with those who experience significant anxiety requires adaptable teaching strategies and individualized feedback. Additionally, fostering an inclusive classroom environment where every student feels comfortable participating is essential for effective learning. Collaboration with colleagues from related fields, such as communication or theater, can also help Speech Professors share best practices for engaging diverse learners.
