Coach CJ is a must! He reviews the school's resources and encourages students to take advantage of the help. He asks questions to keep you engaged. The coursework is a lot for a one-credit-hour course, so I recommend taking coach CJ because he makes it easier to manage. He is very laid back, funny, and keeps the class interesting.

If you get one thing from this rating, it's that you gotta engage--both in class, and in your life. That's what I got from his class, anyway.

Coach Jackson was a great professor, who taught everything very well. He was a very positive person, always showing and giving a caring lecture, if it could be called that. His instructions were clear, and he was very relaxed in class. Coach gave us plenty of time to complete our assignments, and plenty of options for extra credit. Highly Recommend

This man is the GOAT! I've had a lot of professors in college, but this is probably the only class I didn't want to miss because of how genuinely fun and funny he was. Funniest person I've met. So, if you're lucky enough to find a spot in his class, it will be one of the best classes of your whole college life. Hands down 🙌🏻
