Reviews of professor Christopher Modlesky

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
He was so boring... I studied the day before and always did well. I wouldn't worry too much about taking him because for this class there are no other options. Be prepared to take tons of notes on useless information. It is just one of those make an A and pass kind of classes just do prepare for the first test.

Dr. Modlesky is a really nice person, and his KINS 2010 class is full of good information. Just be prepared to memorize slide after slide after slide, as his tests come directly from the slides in the lectures. If you are reading a slide and see a small detail and think "No way this will be on the test", it's going to be on the test.

This class is not hard at all! You don't even have to pay attention in class and still get an easy A! There is a lot of PowerPoints which he posts to Elc, but just skim over them before a test and you will be good!

Tophat program sucks but that's not really Modlesky's fault. He was willing to work with students when the program wasn't working. I'm mad that I had to pay for Tophat when it barely worked and eLC is free. Other than that, the class was super easy. The quizzes were just over the powerpoints he uploaded. Easy A but I didn't learn anything at all.

If you take KINS 2010 with this clown, be ready to memorize hundreds of powerpoint slides because the tests are word for word over the most minute details of lectures. Also literally the most boring lecturer I have ever heard and is unreachable outside class. Office hours only by appointment and takes ages to reply to emails.

This class was so dumb. Should've been an easy A but we only have 3 tests in the class and the tests covers the most useless info. Test questions are SO random, the most obscure I've ever seen. Guest speakers 90% of the time which is great bc he is one of the most monotonous speakers I've ever heard. Best thing abt class- usually ends 45 mins early

8 quizzes and 3 assignments. Pretty straight forward class. the only issue the whole semester was tophat. Other than that, easy A. I cant really speak on behalf of his teaching skills because I had the class online and didn't attend any of the 8 am sessions, but good guy. He really tries to help as much as he can

He only gave a few lectures, since there were so many guest speakers. The guest speakers were interesting, but we were then tested on their power points. To do well in the class you had to memorize every power point before the test.

Take Dr. Modlesky for KINS 2010!! He's way easier than the other options and he's a really nice guy and very knowledgeable. No pop quizzes and overall only 3 exams and a final. Exams aren't bad at all if you just study the lectures from class. He brings in many guest speakers on different kinesiology professions which was a huge bonus.
