Comment:

Only teacher that teaches this class and let me tell you that is tragic. Her classes are sooo boring and almost every class at some point you ask yourself what is she talking about. She is not good with technology at all and does not respond to emails in a quick manner. Straight by her syllabus no matter the situation, so good luck!

Comment:

Why on earth is she the only professor that teaches Kine 2000, I do not know. Her lectures are long and tedious. As a student you often wonder at times what she is talking about. She will go off on a tangent in a heart beat and loses all focus on the task at hand. If you're looking for clarity in a class, avoid her at all costs.

Dr. Espinosa is a nice lady who is kind of oblivious to some insulting remarks she makes. The class itself isn't hard she just doesn't know how to teach it. Study the book, powerpoint and previous clicker questions to good on the tests.

Comment:

Dr. Espinosa is a genuine, nice lady and i see her heart. Although, she isn't very clear when it comes to test expectations.. Her class consisted of guest speakers that are meant to teach each chapter so she doesn't personally teach you much... I also disliked the book, but if you try you will get a good grade because the material is easy.

Comment:

Absolutely awful. She sends out assignment directions the night before they are due. I would not recommend her. One of the worst professors I have ever had. This class would have been cool with another teacher. She talks about herself ALL of the time. You will learn more about her than you will the actual course material.

Comment:

Here are three things you need to know: 1. I am 80% through the semester and doing okay. 2. I have never done a RateMyProfessor, but felt compelled to do one here. 3. Dr. Espinosa is a kind person that knows nothing about the subject she teaches. I like her a lot as a person, but the class is terrible and the text is one of the worst I've read

Comment:

Curriculum project is 50 pages long and professor is a tough grader. it is possible to submit 50 pages of hard work and get a very low grade. The feedback given is detailed but sometimes rude. Professor uses a 7pt grading scale so a B comes out to a C. Other assignments are much easier.

Comment:

Dr. Espinosa is easily one of the best professors in the department. She provides great examples of what she wants and grades in a fair and timely manner. She does give a lot of work but it is all worthwhile. She gives great feedback and is very positive in her comments. She can be a tough grader if she thinks you are trying to skate by. A rating.

Comment:

Dr.Espinosa's class was so easy! Only a few assignments to turn in and one final exam. She is a little strange but I think most PE instructors are! I never used the book - a complete waste of money. If you don't get an "A" in this class something is seriously wrong with you!! She seems hard the first couple of class meetings but is so easy!

Comment:

I thoroughly enjoyed her class and since I did LOOK through the assigned readings as opposed to the rest of the class, she and I got to know each other very well. Pleasant and fun lady with a great deal of energy! You will learn things that you can use in your classroom during the required P.E. time. She cares about what you learn.

Dr. E is a great person. The class is tough because there is so much work but hey if you don't want to become a professional go work a Burger King. She is welling to help, but she does confuse herself and others at times.

Easy assignments. If you did the work and turned it in on time you got an A with no problem. She was easy to talk to and understood if you had any computer problems when doing an assignment.

She was not that bad, if you did the assignments you got an A, she was not that clear, and she was confuding sometimes, but she was very nice!

Comment:

this class was just what I had anticipated...a horror. i have always hated pe classes, and this definitely did not help my perspective. she said she was going to get us moving and junk, but we mostly sat there for two hours doing nothing. every time we had to do group stuff she forgot my group. she seems nice, but BORING.

Comment:

This teacher is not as bad as people make her out to be. Yes she is crazy and she will be unclear about certain things but if you mess up an assignment she will give it back to you to make corrections. The only idiots who fail this course are the ones who dont give any effort.

Comment:

She's a very random person and gets off the topic easily. You never know when things are due bc she doesn't stick to the syllabus. She seems like she can be 2-faced. I just stayed away from her and did the work. She also flaunted her money.

Comment:

She is a little batty. She gets off topic away too much and is unclear about assignments. Beware of the EXSS card fild you have to do and the lesson plans- she will rip them apart. She seems nice enough..suck up if you want on her good side...
