enthusiastic, and understanding
She is a hottie. She does a great job of keeping the class awake by doing group activities and the assignments are easy.
Took her internet class, pretty demanding but also easy.....just a lot of busy work. Always responded to my emails and was helpful. Learned a lot in this class.
Ms. Murphy was excellent. She expects alot from you (busy work). She was an online instructor and the structure she used was awesome. Easy to follow.
Great teacher and great class.
Carla is Great energetic and ready to teach as soon as she gets in the room, explains everything and has notes online to boot. I'd recommend her with my highest regards

Very easy lots of busy work!
Carla is an EXCELLENT teacher. I had her for circuit training and it was a blast. She has SO much energy and is a lot of fun to be around.
Carla is an awesome teacher I took her online class and she has so many helpful notes for you. If you have a question you just email her and she will get right back to you. I would have no problem recommending her.
I wasnt supposed to have Carla, But I am so glad I did! She was so enthusiastic and so positive! She explains things very well and makes you realize what you eat and makes you think more about taking care of yourself--shes fun..great teacher!
I would recommend this teacher if you want to take lifelong wellness on the internet. You have plenty of time to do your work you could finish your work a month in advance to consentrate on other classes. Test and quizzes were timed but not hard.
Explains ideas well. Integrates student activity into class. Very fair and grades accordingly.
very easy class if you like to work out. I just uesed it as an extra day. she makes class fun and you learn alot. She practices what she preaches.
Great Instructor. Energetic (Sometimes too much). All around grades fair for the class.
Okay class, kinda boring, but okay.
I took Carla's internet class and she was very helpful and gave you plenty of time to get your work done. You could finish this class as quickly as you. When you sent Carla an e-mail she was always very prompt on getting one back to you. Recommended YES!
carla is a nice girl and good "teacher" but c'mon its gym class for god's sake.... lets not act like she needs to be a mensa member. she's a good little gym teacher.
I really don't enjoy this class, I just need the credit. It seems like a waste of time because it's only an hour. The only good thing about it is Carla. She is interesting and energetic. She has a good sense of humor and a no nonsense attitude. I recommen
Very nice, positive, instructor. Easy class online, can get whole weeks work done in 20 minutes or less except projects (there are only three - easy).
Number One when I am in a class I am on my time on NOT on Carla time like she thinks. She very demanding and very loud. She is the most energetic woman I have ever meet though and will whip you into shape. Strict attendance policy. Circuit Training does make the class fly by though.
very enthusiastic
TAKE THIS COURSE ONLINE. There is NO reason to go in and listen to lectures for a class like this one. The whole course is available at the start and you can finish it as fast as you want. I put in about 15 hours THE WHOLE SEMESTER total and got an A.
Carla is a very educated and smart instructor. She makes this class very interesting. Carla's skills as an instructor are excellent! It is true, Carla is very energetic and always positive. It wears of on you though. Refreshing! I would recommend her for this class!
Shes great!! If you ever need help, just ask for it! She is cool and funny. I would recommend her online classes since i have never had her as a lecture teacher. Good teacher and easy.
Carla is an awesome teacher. I had her for the lw220 on the internet and she knows her stuff. I really don't like internet classes, but if you are interested in taking one take hers. Excellent teacher! I would recommend her to anyone ecspecially her internet class.
For a required LW class, this was the best one I've had. She is an awesome instructor and it was easy to do well in her class. She understands most people don't want to be there, so she makes the most of it that she can for those people. You probably won't be bored in her class.
A really great Internet teacher. Takes the time to make sure assignments are clear and reminds you when big assignments are due! Always answered my questions promptly and accurately. Offered advice as well when asked. Seemed very willing to work with students. Easy A as long as you do the work.
Carla is awesome. She knows her stuff great teacher!!. Take her if you can. I really enjoyed her class. Very funny and interesting.
Carla was awesome, she kicks your ass and makes you work hard but if your really wanting to make a healthier choice in life she will help you get there. She is motivating, nice and does not look down upon anyone for any reason! Take her, you wont regret it!
I was really interested in this class before I took it - due to the fact that my family is very into healthy living. I thought C. Murphy would be interested in what our family was doing. However, she knocked all alternative healthy living that was not her own personal belief
Took this one Inet. You can do the entire class in a matter of 2-3 hours. There are 3 projects that you have to do that are also very very easy. Make sure you have a hard copy of everything you email her, she has a tendency to lose it. Just fwd it to her again with what she responnded with and she fixes it. Kinda helpful and a super easy A.
Easy class! Carla is an alright teacher but she is a little too hyper! homework easy!
I was scared to take an online class, but I had Carla for LW220 online and it was soooooo easy. I spent maybe 20 min a week online and finished the class way early. TAKE HER ONLINE!!! It will be the easiest class you've had.
She is very very enthusiastic! the homework and lessons are easy. There is plenty of time for questions. She makes it a priority to research your questions. Carla is very kind.
Very hard class and lots of information. Hopefully you have an interest in the class or you wont want to take extra time you will need to study.
I took her online class for LW220. She is a great teacher and I would recommend her to everyone. If you read what she assigns and do the work, it's an easy A.
LOVE Carla she was extremely helpful very encouraging, I am glad I got a chance to take her class I took it online and she wa so helpful, I could not believe it. Take her if you need to take llw thoery. Thanks Carla
I took this class online. Instructions were easy to follow and I learned alot. She makes you do alittle work but it is suppose to be a learning experience. Good teacher and takes an interest in her students. Recommend her.
I took this class online, and it was a good experience! She is extremely helpful. As long as you do the work and follow the rubrics, you'll do fine.
very nice teacher. alot of work there is 12 quizes and a final! 4 papers and 4 discussion bords it was a online class 5 weeks longi wold take her agin if needed she is very organized and easy to flow .
She is a horrible professor! Didn't understand anything she taught. Pickiest grader ever! Went to her office hours for help and she yelled at me and made me feel stupid. I now have to repeat this class. She raises the grading standards and you have to have a 76% to pass. She make it impossible. DO NOT TAKE HER!!
I took the 2 credit LW class that included step aerobics. Carla's workouts KICKED MY A$$! but they were good! difficult for unfit students; homework was easy - must attend class or you lose points or have to make the class up on your own time. Glad it's over, but don't regret taking it. she seemed a bit prejudiced initially but got better later.
Carla will ask you the same question in several different assignments, "How can you modify your behavior for the better?" or some form of that. Be prepared to try and say the same thing in different ways every week. Grading is tougher than it should be, and huge homework amount is not equivalent to a 1 credit class.
I got an A in the class but every assignment was the same exact questions. What do you need to do to change your eating habits? Why do you need to do this? How will you do this? But then you had to find a way to write 6 sentences about it. Literally had to write the same sentences over and over. Super annoying, do not take this online.
Gr8 teacher, makes u learn what u need 2 know
Carla is a great teacher. Class is a lot of work though for a 3 credit class. Be prepared to spend a lot of time on this class. Lots of essay like questions, so be prepared. Overall, she was a great teacher and I learned a lot!
Carla was always upbeat. Since this was a "W" class, there were several writing assignments. She gave detailed information on what she expected on the assignments and for the class.
Flipped classroom is very time consuming. The material is laid out in an outline and you're able to use your notes for quizzes, but it feels like simple information is made to be way more complicated than it really is. The overuse of the words, "Right", "umm", and "okay" can become irritating, as is the scuffing of shoes as she walks and talks.
Carla is a good teacher. Her class is hard because there is a lot of information that needs to be learned. This class is hard and requires a lot of time, but Carla does her best to help with what she can. She does open note quizzes and gives a lot of study materials. Overall, it was a hard class, but if given a lot of time the class will be ok.
This class was crazy... I did more HW in this class than I did in 3 or 4 credit classes during the semester. I think that she made this class out more than it was.
WOW!!!! This class was insane. I did more HW and projects than I did in my other two classes (3 & 4) credit classes combined. She made this class out to be more than it was. If you take her get ready for a healthy dosage of work. Finish the class as early as possible so it doesn't interfere with your important classes.
I would never take this class if I didn't have to. She didn't go over the syllabus at the beginning of the semester and the week of finals told us we had a final exam. She makes you feel like a terrible person if you do not eat everything healthy and talks WAY too loud. She makes a 1 credit course feel like a 5 credit course too. Spare yourself.
Carla is a great teacher! Be prepared to work outside of class. Doesn't give much extra credit. Quizzes are open note. She provides plenty of review for exams. She is easy to approach if you have any questions. Labs are fun! I have learned a lot in this class.
Carla was rude to several students throughout the semester, at one point telling a pregnant student that she is sick of the student emailing her... Was a cNet class and class time was not used learning new things, but things we already did online! WORST PROFESSOR EVER!
Professor Murphy was very helpful! There is a lot of homework considering you also have to exercise, but it's all related material. There were also a few papers. The logging is VERY tedious, but it's essential to see your progress.
Professor Murphy is very helpful! She added extra material that I wanted to know about. I feel like I did as much homework for this one credit class as I did my 3 and 4 credit classes, and that was a bit disappointing. There are a few papers, but they aren't so bad. The final is 20 questions! Be prepared to work for your grade!
I am very out of shape and this class was very difficult for me physically. She was understand and helpful and made it easier for me but still expected me to do everything and to try my hardest. Wonderful woman, would recommend her to anyone.
I took the blended course. It was a ton of work. It was nice, because you could do it at your own pace, but it was a lot of work. Not sure if I would recommend the blended class. Carla was great though. Tests were okay, multiple choice and short answer. Variety of workouts, fun. Overall, get ready to do a ton of time consuming assignments.
He classes are pretty work heavy but it's not too difficult, just a bit tedious. Her lectures are good can can be a bit boring as some of the nutrition stuff is pretty much "duh". However she's nice an enthusiastic, and lets you do make up work so it's almost impossible to fail. Just be prepared to put in the time.
If you are looking for a Leadership class to finish your Global Peace certificate, I do NOT recommend Carla's class. Her teaching style included pointless lectures and an excessive workload, which was unnecessary and time consuming. She was NOT accommodating to the class and did NOT have an open mindset toward alterations to the course.
Great class for activity requirement. All the assignments were easy to understand. The class will go great as long as you do your weekly assignments and get your gym hours in.
I took her exercise class online. She did not believe my workout logs so she gave me WAY LESS time then what I actually spent at the Gym. So, if you take this class online make sure you fill out your logs carefully, otherwise she will take away your hard earned gym time.
Did not teach much in class. Had to watch videos online every week and take your own notes. She put us in group work to do assignments in class and just graded papers while in class. Waste of time showing up, but she would dock points if you didn't show up to take the quizzes.
I took her one credit lwa fitness class online and it was like 6 hours of homework a day.
TONS OF HOMEWORK. Constantly writing papers. Examples: Watching long youtube videos then reviewing and commenting on them. Read 4 articles and write 3 paragraphs about each one. Food log assignment is hours of entering food nutrition info. She's nice and helpful, responds quickly but the class is so much work for only 2 credits.
I took this class online. Although you won't have to be "in class" for an attendance grade, you will have to log approximately 20 or more Gym hours to pass this class. The hardest part for me was that we were only allowed to use 3 hours of workouts in one week, so it kept you going over the course. Overall easy class just a lot of work.
I took Carla for an online class and there was lots of homework and she is a tough grader. She makes you work for the grade that you want. Also, requires you to purchase a gym membership, workout, give a detailed report of your workout and in and out times. Pretty annoying for an online class but I got an A .
Great professor. Gives you all of the short answers that will be on the exam in advance so you know exactly what to study. The exam reviews are also very helpful for the multiple choice portion of the exam. Very nice and makes the classroom a comfortable environment for asking questions. Open note quizzes that are easy, with some Extra Credit.
Honestly if you do ALL the work she assigns and actually study? you'll do fine. she doesn't offer extra credit but gives you opportunity to fix mistakes on hmwrk and makes it clear what you did wrong. She is specific in the syllabus what she wants and although she has poor handwriting, will answer any question or clarify if you're not sure.
All assignments were due on Thursdays at 8:59 am. I turned on in at 9:01 am and she took 25% off my score. She gives clear feedback on what you did wrong though. There's a lot of work to do but if you do it you'll do fine. She likes using kahoot.
Even though Prof. Murphy seems to care about her students, she gives an extremely unrealistic amount of work for a mere two-credit course. An assignment turned in one day late will receive 25% off (not including errors that may have been made on the assignment). I took this course only because a fitness class is required for an associate degree.
You could tell she genuinely cared about the students. It was very obvious she wanted us to understand the material and apply it to our lives. She responds to emails relatively quickly as well. She's one of my favorite professors I've had.
She wants you to benefit from this class and not just skate through. It was an accelerated class so the work was on the heavy side, but it was never overwhelming. She takes the time to make sure you are on track to pass and she actually reads everything submitted and gives you feedback.
The class was very easy. She would lecture for a few minutes then we would do a workout. We would have a quiz every couple of weeks. Carla is very nice and responds to emails well. This is the third class I've taken with her and I would take more if I could. She is a very nice lady and a great instructor.
She us a very tough grader... And lots of difficult exams. I loved her as a person, but not a teacher.
Do not recommend. Don't expect to get 100% in this class because she gives excessive amounts of homework and grades so poorly. Just when you feel like you did good on an assignment, she will show you otherwise... You can't catch up in this class because it feels like it is overwhelming with homework that NEEDS to be submitted in time.
Carla is an amazing professor. She actually cares about every student. She wants you to succeed and helps you understand a realistic way to make yourself healthier. She writes a detailed response to every assignment that I submitted; I have no idea where a professor could come up with that much time. I would take Carla for every class if I could.
Carla's class is very difficult to say the least. In the class there are assignments, graphs, calculations, exercises and quizzes alongside exams. The class load may have you feeling overwhelmed with the amount of information she expects you to learn. She relates everything to exercise and wants you to explain that with almost everything you learn.
Would not recommend this professor everything was mostly book learning with graphs charts and calculations. The class should have been more visual with more extra credit for those that struggle with the course. Even with the optional work still didn't help with getting a good grade. Not everyone can learn out of a book
This professor gave incredible feedback on every assignment. She allows late work and allows you to resubmit work to get points back. Everything that need to be done was clear and written out in the syllabus.
Very tough grader. Not sure if I would take a class of hers again. Probably wouldn't recommend unless you're a very detailed and specific person when answering test/homework questions. I will say she does let you resubmit assignments for half credit back. Also, a replacement exam is offered towards the end. Saved my grade tbh
I will purposely avoid taking another one of her classes. She grades strict and her lectures are far from engaging. Lots of studying on your own.
Lectures are dragged on and is really bad at helping us complete our homework. She also grades harsh on homework.
