Hernan is an amazing lecturer. He always makes sure that his lectures are engaging, even at 8:30 in the morning. The class itself takes time and is not super interesting. But Hernan tries his best to use modern examples to help with learning,

He gives the advice not to memorize anything to do well but to understand and that will 100% get you an A on every single test. Listen to it. Read the readings and relate it to the concepts, don't worry about memorizing any useless powerpoint information, background on the individuals, history, etc. Read the book, listen and you will be fine.

Comment:
KINE 1000 at times felt like a sociology course (which it is). Hernan is very enthusiastic about his material and he is respected. With that being said, his content is not needed. The tests are all multiple choice and his questions tend to be easy. You have to work for an A/A+ and make sure you do well on the essays.

Comment:
Kine 1000 is a great example of how bs ideas are pushed onto students. Hernan seems like a nice guy and i'd say is a good and engaging teacher (which is why I gave him a 3), but this course is VERY agenda driven. I dont understand why we're learning about white privilege in a kinesiology class. That is all I have to say.

Hilariously Easy Midterm, show up to class and it's a 90+. Take Home essay exam thats given a week before exams begin so no stress there. It was a great course, laid back and more like an open discussion. Humana is a great, caring person. Seriously, take it if you have the chance

Lectures were good, seemed like a nice and funny guy when teaching. However, trying to talk to him outside of class and its the opposite. Is unhelpful, rude, unforgiving and down right mean. Have had 3 separate friends go to his office for issues and each person agrees he is not the same in private as he is in front of the class. Beware

Favorite Professor at York! Professor Humana is amazing! His lectures are always so clear and extremely engaging. He always goes off on little tangents that are so interesting! He's hilarious too! Also, sit in the front and participate! If he learns your name you'll probably get perfect on participation.

Very inspiration and jolly! Will put a smile on anyones face! Sometimes gets off topic but gets the lecture done while talking about other issues! Readings are a must to pass the course!

Glad I took this course with Professor Humana this semester. His lectures once again never failed to keep me awake in the morning as they did in KINE 1000. Doing well in his class is the simple formula of going to class, participating, asking questions when you have them, and doing the readings. Midterm and final are fair in difficulty.

Had him for KINE 1000. Easily gives the best lectures compared to Saffai and Nakamura. He knows how to keep the lectures entertaining and even does some fun demonstrations. You must keep up with readings during the year or else you will fall behind.

Honestly his teaching style is pretty irritating. He talks way to much about things not relevant to the concepts. Overall nice guy but its difficult to follow along when he's all over the place.

Gives bad lectures, may be entertaining to some first years but his slides are poorly worded and constructed. The other kine 1000 profs are more tolerable.

Comment:
Professor Humana is a very enthusiastic person which really helps in a course like KINE 1000, he tells some fun stories in the lectures, and is a very approachable person. He can be a little confusing sometimes, like not finishing his sentences or changing the topics very quickly but overall he is a great prof. Make sure to attend the lectures tho
