Comment:
Robin is one of the best teachers I've had in my entire college career and is very knowledgable about the subjects she teaches. If you put in effort and treat her with respect then you won't have any problems at all. She is a bit of a hard grader on papers but lets gives you the option to redo and edit your work. Show up to class and pay attention.

Wow, it is sad to see that this teacher is still making students miserable. I had her for dance class back in 2003. I was a music major at Crane and I took her ballet class as an elective because I was excited to try it. She assured me that non dancers could take her level I class. I gave it 110% and her comments were just beyond the point of cr

Very knowledgeable but too much discussion and not enough DOING in class. You will intellectually improve in her class but will lose physical strength. The program as a whole needs majors to take more daily technique classes. PLEASE SEPARATE LEVELS MORE!

Comment:
Robin to say the least is judgemental, not understanding and mean. She does not give you any benefit of doubt. She's an extremely hard grader. Her feedbacks are beyond creul. She always finds something wrong with your work. She talks down to you and makes you feel completely stupid. I do not recomend her at all.

I really cant take robin. She's very judgemental at times. If she doesnt like you, you will know it and it will show in your grades. dont miss even one class, she will call you out on it in front of people, and you'll lose credit.

Worst profesor/teacher that I have ever had!!! DO NOT be late or she will publically embarrass you. My grandfather died and she didn't want to give me an excused absence for it til I threatened to get the dean of students involved.

She really knows her stuff. She has made me realize some allignment problems that most dancers have. The grading I found was a little harsh. And I didnt have that much fun in the material. She is a really nice person though and cares about her students.
