Comment:

Professor Howton's lectures are about the same every class. She preaches about her healthy lifestyle but her evidence is outdated. She has a difficult time citing her sources and uses the Super Size Me movie as proof even though it was proven wrong. Very particular about SMART goals. Tests are hard and she does not go over chapters in the lectures.

Comment:

Took her for my only summer course she was fair and very informative if you were concerned about the course material. As an adult student taking her for my 1st online class I was pleasantly surprise. I would take her again, but be warned if you don't plan on learning anything she may not be the right online instructor for you.

She was horrible. She was the toughest grader I've had in college and I had more work in this class than I did any other class I took this semester. DO NOT TAKE HER. Just awful.

This class is by no means an easy A compared to other wellness cources. All the assignments it seems you can never be specific enough and sheep count it completely wrong.

Probably the easiest course I've ever taken and my online class discipline is trash. 6 modules, about 2 weeks for each, no tests and I actually learned quite a bit about health. Take it.

Ms. Howton was an excellent ballet teacher. She has loads of experience and makes sure everyone is getting attention. She would correct you when needed, but also gave compliments where they were deserved.

Comment:

You can make an A in this class but you must get through a communication block caused by a teacher who is consistently condescending and not afraid to call students out in front of everyone. Take her feedback and incorporate it exactly into future assignments. Write at least 2 pages for response questions. Its difficult, but possible.

Comment:

This professor is by far the worst. She skipped abusive relationships and mental illness just to tell us that she thought Christianity is polytheistic. She preaches about the vegan agenda but we found her eating meat. Do not go to her sex ed class. She will tell you what her preferences are. Maybe if she was vegan she could have taught better.

Comment:

She is absolutely awful. Her syllabus constantly contradicts herself and then she gets rude and tell you to refer back to the syllabus. I'm an all "a" student and I'm struggling to pass this class. Her standards change with the mood she is in and its either a bad grade or an even worse grade. Worst professor I have ever had. DO NOT TAKE HER CLASS!!

Comment:

Probably one of the worst teachers I have ever had. She is extremely rude and demonstrates no respect for her students. TAKE A DIFFERENT TEACHER!! There are no tests, but she is annoying and just an awful teacher! She talks down to you, and treats you like a first grader. You have to buy the book, but rarely open it. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!

Comment:

Incredibly rude, has a tendency to get "salty" if students misunderstood something she said. Can be passive-aggressive quite often, especially towards reading online textbooks. The homework is nothing much, however, it can be quite confusing. Get ready to submit page long reflections based on wellness twice a week. Definitely NOT recommended...

She comes across as rude and pompous is she doesn't like the questions. Made things much harder than they needed to be. Would suggest taking someone else with a little more personality.

Comment:

I was unsure about taking her class, but I ended with an A. There is not much homework. I mainly just made up numbers for the fitness part of it like your heart rate for the mile walk and my time. I recommend her!

Comment:

I received an A in this class but I had to work hard for it. She is not very helpful and can even seem rude if you ask for help. Her assignments arent very clear so I would recommend asking questions about everything because if she can find a reason to take off points she will.

Make sure you keep up with stuff! She'll do projects that are supposed to take all semester, but they don't show up in the online module until the week they're due. She'll also expect photographic proof of some projects. Helpful, but can be unsympathetic.

She is an awesome teacher! Very informative. She was also always ready to help or clarify instructions. You have to keep up with the work, but if you follow instructions and do your assignments you will be fine. If you have any questions never hesitate to ask. She was always willing to help!
