He is very clear and outgoing. His tests are nothing like what he says they will be and you have to work hard to receive a good grade. If you ask for help he is willing to help.

Comment:

I love the kin150 class in general, Doug is a great guy but a hard grader. His test outlines are "know chapter 1-4" so you really have to know your stuff and be ready for application questions but there's no final! On the practical exams you'll rarely get over an 8 but it's such a fun class. It never drags on and you meet so many new people!

Doug is a great prof, he genuinely wants you to do well. The content of the course was not difficult, however there is a lot to know. Keeping up with the content is important. His exams where not super hard nor where they easy, some questions had to be read very carefully.

I liked the lab portion of the class, good mark booster. Kin 121 had SO MUCH material to cover it was overwhelming to memorize. Good prof, posts almost everything to paws. Exams were difficult.

Enjoyed this class. Midterm and final were easy. He marked hard on the individual and partner routines. I Would recommend this class to everyone regardless of gymnastics ability.

Boring, It seemed like someone else made the slides for him, and he just read them. Easy class though

He was the toughest marker I had my entire first year, but it was worth it. Kin 150 was the most entertaining class I had and was definitely worth taking.

He's a really good prof but I felt like if I wasn't a dancer, I couldn't get good marks on my sequences. He's really smart and hot so take his class, but be prepared for his hard midterm and surprisingly easy final!

Comment:

He brings his own experience to class and gets through all required material. His powerpoint presentations were very helpful and he didn't have the "i'm smarter than you" mentality. He's very approachable and nice to look at during class.
