She's an amazing teacher. I strongly recommend taking her. She's very caring and gets you very involved in the lecture, making sure you fully understand and comprehend all that was talked about. Only negative part is the online homework.

If you need motivation for a new body this is the professor to take. She is absolutely amazing, caring, loving, friendly, respectful, funny, and supportive. I can go on and on about her but it wouldn't mean as much as you taking her course. You can tell she loves her job because of the amount of support and encouragement she will give you.

Doesn't work with the beginning students a whole lot, but she's pretty nice and fairly encouraging. Badminton was mostly a fun, easy class where you just show up and play most days.

Caires is an awesome teacher! She will push you to your limits but she only wants what's best for you. If you're wanting a "walking" class look somewhere else. Her "walking" isn't normal walking it's speed walking. Fun class though! And she's very understanding to issues like asthma and stuff like that.

I took her fitness bootcamp class. It is fun and challenging. She pushes you over your limit the first few weeks. Try your best and you will get an A.

Coach Caires is one of those people you meet that will change your life. She loves what she does and wants her students to succeed. She comes to class ready everyday no matter what. She honestly cares about her students and whether we understand how important exercising is to us. I learned a lot about staying healthy from her.

Not a walking class! We ran most of the time and the workout was rather challenging. I don't mind working out, but I signed up for a WALKING class. Kiss up to her and she'll love you. Kinda flaky on somethings. You'll learn a lot about changing you diet and basics of aerobics. Easy A. At the end of the semester you'll be glad its over!

The teacher is very tough but fair. She really gives her all to motivate all of the students in the class. You definitely get your money's worth from her. She can be a little sarcastic in a funny way but I have never seen her belittle anyone. One of the best teachers at Grossmont.

Nice enough lady, i would say she takes her job as Badmittion coach a little too serious. I needed two ES classes for my GE and i took this and volleyball. In volleyball if you showed up and played you got an "A". In this class she had like 3 tests and stuff. Kinda ridiculous especially after she had the nerve to give me an A-. Come On really?
