Comment:

Dr. Morano was a good teacher. It was clear he has good knowledge of the subject matter and welcomes questions. On the off chance he doesn't know the answer he will say so, and get back to you on it. He comes off as tough and scary but after taking 2 classes with him he really is nice and wants to see his students succeed.

Comment:

This class was one of my favorites. His lectures were very engaging. I loved that he cared about us learning as students and not just going through the motions. To do well you definitely need to study. However, if you do study no doubt you will do great! Also, it helps if you read through the book and his power points.

Not only with class is he a well respected professor but he wants us to be engage and actually know the material. He brings in people from the Sports Medicine feild to get you an understanding of what you'd be doing and encourages us to be active in our sourroundings not just education. Great guy highly recommend

At first I didn't like him because I commuted from an hour away and was consistently late. Once I moved out to the area and was on time I realized he was easily one of my favorite teachers. Very reliable and helpful. Love being in his class.

Comment:

He is a very nice guy, funny and can seem a little strict at first but after a while that seems to go away! my number one advise is to print out his powerpoint before going to class so that you can just write down what he says on the printed out papers and highlight or underline things he repeats, it makes the class easier!

Comment:

A very down to earth man. He kept the class entertained by laughter. His test and quiz are very straight forward if you take notes in class. I never really had an assignment from the book, You just had to take notes from his power points (Which are available on Blackboard Vista.) Overall, I fun class to be in

One of the core classes I took. The Prof. I thought was very down to Earth. Very understanding and very interesting at times. Lots of random yet useful info as well during class. Tests are straight forward and are explained before hand what to expect. I enjoyed having him for my first college class!

Comment:

Very interesting, learned a lot in his class. Lots of random info too. Tests were very straight forward and easy. 4 labs that were easy 100's to boost grades. Project at the end is major part of grade but he is very generous with grading, mostly A's and B's. Good professor for this class!

Comment:

Dr. Morano is super funny and cool! It is unnecessary to take notes in his class because he posts them on Blackboard Vista. He tends to put questions on exams that were not covered in class- I got C's on tests but ended up with an A in the class so it does not affect your grade too much. He also gives a lot of extra credit. I recommend him!

Comment:

Class is pretty basic (what do you expect). The class won't teach you much that you didn't already know. He's very intelligent but he's also kind of a weirdo. Throws a few questions at you on the exams that weren't reviewed in class and then will tell you that it was. If it weren't for that I'd get 100's on each one. Decent guy.

He posted up the power points on-line so you didn't need to worry about rushing to take notes in class. He is really funny and helpful if you have a question even if it's for personal gain or satisfaction.

He posted up the power points on-line so you didn't need to go to class to get the notes. There were days when you had to turn in an assignment or do an in-class assignment that you have to show up for. Also activity days are mandatory.

Class is easy, don't need to read the text, or show up to lectures,just read the powerpoints, and other than that if you can't pass his class than you shouldn't be in college.

Comment:

Professor Morano is a great guy. Although he seems kindve boring at first, he easily becomes a favorite. He tried to relate to my class a lot, and we always shared some laughs. Very funny guy, honest, and extremely fair. When I was scheduled this PE class I expected to hate it, but it turned out to be very enjoyable.

Comment:

Morano, funny guy. enjoys making people look stupid, but only the people who are immature and rediculous in class. One of the toughest PE teachers compared to the rest at cc. study from the book before tests, outline chapters and try to branch out during gym days, he'll appreciate it
