Great teacher!! Makes the class fun, while working extremely hard. YOU WILL SEE RESULTS FROM HER CLASS!!!

THE GREATEST WORKOUT I'VE HAD IN SO LONG. YOU WILL FOR SURE BURN THEM UNWANTED FAT/CALORIES. SHE'S GREAT--HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Prof Bodnar is great motivation for your healthy lifestyle. She has taught me a lot to help benefit myself. Took class this summer and lost 10 lbs. One of City's best!!!

she's incredible

Coach Bodnar is great! She makes sure you get your workout. Great motivator and she knows her stuff. If you plan on getting in her class for an easy A make sure you go to another teacher. Coach Bodnar is tough and loves to challenge her students.

She is AWESOME got to love her workouts! She has so much energy you have to feel it a mile away. If you want to loose wt. and tone. She is the lady. Love her class and cannot wait for the next semester.

Dede's a great teacher. Super high energy and very motivational. Her classes are hard, but isn't that what you want when you're working out? She rocks, and I want her abs! AND her butt!

FANTABULOUS teacher. She has a lot of energy, she can really move, and if you put your heart into it, this class is great, gets you in REALLY good shape. Wish I could go back and take her class 3 times a week again. I miss you Dede!!

very good looking woman, great workout in her class. she has lots of energy, just wish i had as much energy as she does. i would love to take her class again

Very interesting lectures, nice person but gives last minute info about tests. Really loves teaching, is a good teacher overall. Fun class...I loved her. I recommend her.

She is very energetic and full of life. Her classes are fun and makes exercise less cumbersome

GREAT PROFESSOR. GETS YOU MOTIVATED!

Either on HEALTH 101 or Volleyball, COACH BODNAR ROCKS!!!! as a Professor, a Coach, a Person and a Friend. Coach Bodnar should be the role model every other so called "professor" at SDCCD should follow. She definitely has my vote for Teacher o

My favorite teacher of all times. I'm going to take all of her classes.

I've taken this instructor last summer. Believe me I was all bent and out shlape! I've continued to take her class this fall and now my clothes fit better, I watch what I eat, and never been this spritual. Absolutely awesome instructor!!! My recommendations and approval for anyone taking her classes.

Coach Bodner is totally fierce! She WILL work your ass off, but you know what, the rewards are well worth it. After each class I felt so much more relaxed and so energetic. Lost weight and gained muscle in just a few months. She is a lovely person as well, and is the only Phys Ed teacher who has motivated, as opposed to annoying me.

It's already been said, however; she is totally manic and never walks but rather bounces in to a room. She will work your butt off however it is totally worth it. She wants you to learn, have fun and be able to do more at the end than you could in the beginning. Aint nothing wrong with that. Great teacher!

Each year ~ I noticed she announces to the class that she's only 21. LOL! I've been in her Yoga class consistently for almost 2 years now, and SHE IS awesome! When I first enrolled in her class I wore a size 8, now I'm down to a size 6 and I am still taking her class again in Spring.

She is a really good teacher! The only minor complaint I have is that she could hold the poses a bit longer, and focus more on quality in front of quantity. Still, definitly take yoga from her!

Bodnar is amazing, she's funny (not JUST funny, FRIGGIN HILARIOUS), FULL of energy, keeps you motivated and won't let you give up. She has a story for everything. I didn't even have to buy a book, just take notes and attend class. Definitely worth it ;D

She is the best in the cardio kickboxing class. Just bring your lazy butt to class and put forth effort and that will be enough for the A!!!! Great Class and Highly Enjoyed it!!

if you love volleyball the she is for you!!

I've taken a few of her classes. She is a true inspiration. She makes you want to work hard. She's really hot too, which helps...

Coach Dede is Excellent you should enroll to her class-rose/spring2009

Cardio strength training. If you go to class and put forth half the effort that she does, your gonna see some results. She rocks, her class was fun and one hell of a work out. Id take her again for sure. Some ppl in the class had 2 of her classes back 2 back. This is what all pe classes should be like. :)

I took her cardio kickboxing a few times as well as her volleyball class. She is extremely dedicated and excited about teaching. Kickboxing is tough but worth it its a good workout. and volleyball is my sport so i really enjoyed the class.

BEST TEACHER EVER!!! She is very dedicated and loves what she does. She also kicks your butt (in a good way).Want results..TAKE HER!!

There's just a few word to say about this lady........SHE IS THE BEST!!! FIVE STAR IN MY BOOK.

sHE iS tHE bESTEST / vERRRY fRIENDLY!!! i tOOK hER tWICE tIME fOR sTEP aEROBIC / lOOVVINNGG iT!! ;]

Full of energy, extremely fun, if you want to see results take her! She definitely sets the bar high, and when looking for other phys ed classes i'm always wondering and hoping that the teachers are as tuff as her, I definitely recommend Bodnar!

She pushes you hard, is extremely motivating, and will probably change your life : )

I took her volleyball class for the Spring and I have nothing else to say about her but the best. She is an incredible teacher. She cares about her students and brings the best out of you!

Dede is an amazing person I Love her! she was my volleyball coach. She is very helpful and will be there for you whenever you need her.

Coach Bodnar is AWESOME and Karen too. Coach is caring, no-nonsense, and whips you into shape. She is the best!

The best, understands every student cannot keep up with class...It's a workout, but if you can't keep up, just do your best and you'll be fine. Classy Lady and a Great Coach...

The step aerobics class was really fun! I NEVER dance, but I had a really good time learning the different routines for this class. Don't worry about your size or physically ability, the class starts off easy and goes on from there, just try not to miss more than like 4 days in the semester. Also the final is a group routine but it was easy.

She's an awesome teacher. I'm taking Yoga and so far she's great. Nice, approachable, friendly, caring, honest, and dedicated. You don't have to buy any books, or any materialsequipment. Just show up in your workout clothes (you take your shoes and socks off so don't worry about footwear).

One of the best work outs in my life, and that's saying a lot. She pushes students and you definitely leave sore every class. Probably the best physical Ed teachercoachtrainer at city.

Her class is very fun.. she is energic and cool.

Coach Bodnar makes learning and practicing yoga for the first time truly amazing. Be ready to be pushed. She is amazing when it comes to lectures which happen once a week. Quizes every blue moon, and there is a final. She makes yoga so much fun. Coach take yoga to a new level by adding in some cardio and weights into the class to. Loved it.

Best volleyball coach!! Even if you have never played volleyball in your life, she will teach you and make you have fun in class.

I took Coach Dede during Intersession, I was able to do all of the book assignments during the 2 week trial; she lets you work ahead so you don't have to pay for the book. she gives you extra credit just by signing up for an exercise science class. She also gives you heads up of how many points you are away to getting an A. very good teacher.

I took Coach Bodnar s online health 101 class and she is a awesome instructor. In my opinion, she is a more then a teacher. She is friendly, caring about her students learning and grades, and encourage her students to be prepare when exams, or quizzes are approaching. She will also gives extra credits to boost your grades if you have low grades.

I took coach Bodnar this fall for health and although it was super fast paced she was very lenient which was for sure needed during these times. She offers extra credit and gives good feedback on all assignments. I wish I took her class in person- I know I would have enjoyed it with her :)

I took this course online this past fall, and it was great. Coach Bodnar is clear with what she expects and very helpful. She provides excellent feedback on assignments and is always available for help. The pace of the course is just right, and I would recommend this class to anyone.

I took this class and didn't know it was condensed until after I had started! Prof. Bodnar was very helpful with all the questions i had. (which were a lot) Not to mention i had some technical difficulties and she was accommodating& understanding. It really helped me stay positive. And being my first online class, she gave a great experience!

Coach Bodnar is one of the best online professors. She is kind and caring at the same time expects work to be done.

I enjoyed the class! Learning about health and wellness and how to apply it in my life. Navigating online was a little difficult. Wouldnt change anything at the moment. I feel I learned more about health and how I can better take care of myself and my family. Enjoyed learning. Coach Bodnar is caring and kind but expects work to be done.

Professor Bodnar is so great she love teaching her students and always wanting them learning.

COACH DEDE HAS BEEN ONE OF THE MOST AMAZING TEACHERS I HAVE EVER HAD. SHE IS SO CARING AND YOU CAN TELL SHE LOVES WHAT SHE DOES. WHAT I LOVE IS THAT SHE HELPS EACH STUDENT IN THE AREA THEY NEED HELP. SHE IS VERY CARING AND RESPECTFUL WITH HER STUDENTS. I WOULD DEFINATELY TAKE MORE CLASSES WITH HER. SHE IS AMAZING.

Very easy if you do the work. Fast-paced class. Teacher is incredibly helpful and aware of the work you are completing on a daily basis.

This class was my first class ever taken at City College, with professor Bodnar, she gave me a whole new vision on health, with her modules, she has helped me learn so much on how to take care of my body within 4 weeks of the semester. She is truly the best health professor out there in SD.

This professor was so persistent in helping me through out this course. During COVID-19 we experienced some technical difficulties with quizes and assignments. Professor Bodner, tried and tried again to make sure I was able to get my work done and contacting tech support. Overall very positive course and she is truly a professor I will miss.

I like how assignment can be done earlier than they're due. I find it very helpful and more relaxing knowing I got next week work done already. One thing I dislike is discussion, I'm just the type of indivuial who likes to be do work on their own. I would like if there was an alternative to this, gives us a choice. I feel like I did learn a lot.

I love how she communicates with her students! She is so helpful and kind! She truly wants nothing but the BEST for her students and is willing to work with your grade! SHE IS AWESOME!!!!

what i like about this class was i help me understand more about heath i like everything about this class i would not change anything about this class it was good i do feel i learned more about this subject yes i sis enjoy the class

The class was overall very enjoyable- it contains a lot of useful information that everyone will need to use in the long run. The professor gives really good feedback and you can tell she really cares about her students! Another thing I liked was the professor's response time! I would recommend this class and this professor.

Coach Bodnar took over my class from another teacher. She pulled the class out of a nosedive in record time, it was very impressive. I'm sure it was not her first choice, but she still seemed like she really cared about us and took the time to read and respond to everything.

I took this class online for only half of a semester, but there was so much valueable information provided. The class was relatively simple, but still provided a decent amount of work to do. Coach Bodnar's canvas page was very easy to navigate, and the assignments were never confusing.

What I like most about this class, was the professor. She was very clear and to the point about what was needed to pass the class. There was nothing I Can say bad about this class and the professor. I learned from this class by doing the work that was required. I enjoyed this class very much, it was one of the simpler classes I took this semester.

Very lenient class and easy to do assignments. Professor always leaves comments indicating that they care and read your submissions.

Unique experience, a teacher that cares and check on her students, will definitely take another class with her name on it.

She took over our class from another professor, and I am glad she did. She also extended our deadline for our homework submission which I really appreciate because I was behind with my school work. Overall, this class is very informative and really enjoyed it! I really recommend her class.

She is awsome and someone I would get again, she is always trying to help students out

Amazing overall teacher and very passionate about what she teaches.

Coach Dede Bodnar is one of the best professors I've had at City she is very sweet and understanding, and encourages her students to do better. This professor is very easy grading, you just need to turn in your work and you will get a good grade in the class and if you have any questions she is very accessible through email.

This class was so fun. Zoom lecture was not mandatory but you had to do a journal if you didn't show. The volleyball practice was on the beach and it was a blast. Overall super fun teacher and I learned a lot.

I would definitely take her class again. She is awesome. Communicates with you with anything you need in class and guide you through them. Her class was very precise and easy to follow with all the chapter topics. Detailed and oriented.

I recommend taking Coach Bodnar; she answers emails fast when you have a question or are unsure about an assignment I would take again.

This class ended in 4 weeks so no time to slack and get ready to read. Of course you are not alone, the professor was available at anytime, she will get back to you though email really fast. The class in general is easy, but you need to put effort to pass and to get that A.

Coach Bodnar made it easy for us to understand the grading syllabus. Took a four week class so expect a lot of assignments to do every week. She mentions that the test revolve around the textbooks. Also gave extra credit.

This class was such a great experience. I was interested in taking this class to get me back into a healthy lifestyle. Coach made this class very fun and very informational. I would definitely recommend this class to anyone who wants to take that first step into getting back into a healthier lifestyle, as well as learning the how to maintain it.

I like that all tests are multiple choice and everything is in the book. I dont have anything bad to say about the class, except that I didnt get to meet the professor in person, seems like a very nice person who cares about the students. Would I change anything about the class? No 4. Yes, I feel like I learned all I needed to learn.

I loved this class & Mrs. Bodnar. She was really helpful & lenient. She gave us extra credit, and we could work on future assignments is we wanted to. She was quick to answer when we needed help & was very encouraging & uplifting throughout the entire course. Really appreciate a professor whos caring & willing to work with her students.

Coach Bodnar really cares about her students. Canvas is organized, easy to follow, and assignments are a breeze. I would 100% take this class again in a heartbeat.

Coach Bodnar was very fast paced since it was only 4 weeks, but def very doable if you do one assignment a day. Coach Bodnar is very encouraging and constantly sent reminders for important things so you are always on top of your work. Would 100% take another course with her.

Coach Bodnar's health 101 class was awesome. I totally recommended. Discussions are great and people are so interactive. Everything that I have learned, I will share it with friends and family. Thanks, coach Bodnar and have an awesome rest of the semester. Albert

Something I liked most about this class was how educational and interesting the content is. What I liked least would be how fast past it is. If I would change something it would be adding more videos learning content. I learned a lot from this class. Overall, I enjoyed it.

I liked this class because of how informative and accessible the text was ;I was able to download the app and study on my phone or practice flashcards. Coach Bodnar is very helpful when you need help or have a problem, when I had trouble accessing my assignments she responded quickly and followed up after to make sure everything was okay.

Coach Dede gives very simple tasks and good care for students. I loved her enthusiastic personality with feedback for discussion work. I would definitely recommend her!

She is an amazing professor. I didn't know when signing up to this class that it was only 8 weeks, so be ready to read a lot. She grades really fast and will comment on every assignment you do and will tell you what you did wrong or right and let you re do it. If you do all the assignments you will get an A. There's no way you could fail her class.

I loved my professor's enthusiasm for teaching and really wants the students to do well. I liked everything about the class and my professor was effective with reminders on when the homework is due. I learned more about the subject. Now I understand more about health. I enjoyed the class and I am happy I took it

Coach Bodnar really cares about her students. I've never had an instructor that provides written feedback for each assignment submitted until I took this class.

She is great and she cares about their students she is understanding and also I love that she always shares feedback on the assignments.

I like most with this class was the information that I didn't really know and the information that I knew a little about and gained greater knowledge of it. I liked least actually that it wasn't a in person class, but still it was great. I don't think I would change anything, I really like this class, but if I had to choose something,

Learning more about what I thought I knew. I wish it was longer, in person. Would not change anything,(in person would be nice) I learned so much info about things I thought I knew about. I loved the class, gaining new and informative knowledge was worth the reading and study.

This is my second online class with Coach Bodnar. She always gives good feedback on every single assignment, and encourages students to keep going. She's personable and seems to really care about student success and personal growth. Not an easy A, it will take good participation, but I would definitely recommend and take her again!

My favorite part of this class is fully online, and the professor is excellent at replying to your email, plus the homework and test are not that hard and the professors will always remind you of your assignments so you won't miss any homework or test.

I like how informative this class was. There was definitely a ton of reading that you need to get used to. Something I would change about this class is to lower the amount of chapters required. Overall I definitely learned a lot about the course, so yes, I would recommend it.

Professor Bodnar wants you to pass her class. She gives extensions on uncompleted work so theres no room for error if you just do the work. and extra credit is available. Lots of reading/ quizzes / and tests.

Professor Bodnar, gives extra credit and the quizzes are exactly what came from the reading so just read the assigned chapters and you will pass all your tests .

Coach B cares about your participation and success, provides encouragement, feedback, and opportunities for extra credit. I chose online learning for this class. Coach B has positive energy, and her motivation would be more impactful to me in person/real-time rather than online. I learned a lot about health and enjoyed this class. Highly recommend!

Professor Dede Bodnar is efficient and helpful in motivating students constantly, remanding assessments, and showing us how to complete tasks quickly and easily. what I like most about it is that I enjoyed everything about it, but I particularly enjoy working on the dissolution projects and using the Study Area to watch videos and animations.

Love her, amazing and great experience with this class.

Very straight forward and motivating! Definitely recommend.

I really enjoyed taking this class. You can tell Coach Bodnar is a caring person. She gives great feedback in each assignment and if you have any questions or concerns she gets back to you quickly. I would definitely recommend taking this class.

Professor Bodnar, is really trying to help. People who miss the homework due she is always trying to give another chance. Class is not hard if you just do your daily homeworks you will be finish easy. I will take another class from this professor. Highly recomennded.

This professor goes out of her way to ensure your success in this class. She personally will reach out and inform the class that she is there to work with us to be successful .

Health 101 was overall an interesting class. I will take it again. The professor knows what she is doing. In my opinion the class was difficult.

Hi Coach Dede, she so nice and very responded, I enjoyed her class. If I would take her class again. I would take it again.I like her class because it is very organized.

Coach Bodnar is incredibly understanding, which I really like. The only thing I didn't like about this class is how short it and fast paced it was. If I could change something, I would add some sort of review between the modules and the tests. Overall, I feel I learned a lot of very useful health information and tips. I really enjoyed this class.

Coach bodnar has a very interesting class . The things I like about the class is the topics on health we covered. I much enjoyed the discussion board. I learn ways to stay healthy. I will take this again if I could.

She's a really great professor and the course was easy. It's important to stay on top of work but if you do fall behind it is not hard to catch up and raise your grade.

Professor Bodnar is one of the most genuine and better professors I've taken in my life. She provides thorough instructions and has realistic expectations from all the students. There was a lot of reading and writing involved in the class, but if you do the reading, discussions, and writing assignments then you won't have an issue with the class!

Professor Bodnar is very passionate about her job and wants her students to succeed. She was very responsive to emails and gave great feedback on my assignments. She made it feel as if she really wanted you to succeed on your college path.

Coach Bodnar's class is straightforward and easy to do well in if you follow instructions. Good class if you need the credit, GREAT class if you're trying to to motivate yourself to be more active.

Coach Bodnar is really great on feedback to assignments and will respond to any questions or concerns within a day or, if it's the weekend on the following day classes are in session. The assignments and homework are not just busy work but, useful to the everyday as well as professional life. You should be ready to read a modest amount and write.

Professor Bodnar is fair and adds a good amount of extra credit. Material isn't too challenging but a lot of work and memorizing is required.

she was easygoing, and I could do it independently since the class was online. She always sends emails reminding us of deadlines and if we are missing something. 10/10 will take her again

This was a great class requirement to take for a degree because the professor makes it able to not only finish but finish with a decent grade.

What I liked most was the interesting material and engaging instructor. The topics were fascinating and the teacher really made the content come alive. If I could change one thing about the class, I would include more opportunities for hands-on application of the material through projects, labs, or discussions.

Always given extra time for assignments that are overdue and 2 extra credit assignments.

I really enjoyed professor Bodnar's class. She is a very caring person who just wants the best for you and your health. She gave a lot of feedback on the assignments, which motivated me since she was really supportive and positive. The assignments were very clear in explaining what was expected of us too. I really recommend taking her class!

Professor Bodnar is very caring and supportive of you and your health. Her assignments are very clear and there is extra credit offered. Overall, she is a very good professor and I highly recommend taking her class!

Professor Bodnar is very caring and supportive of you and your health. Her assignments are very clear and there is extra credit offered. Overall, she is a very good professor and I highly recommend taking her class :)

Very reasonable class! homework was easy to complete, and Prof. Bodnar really shows that she cares about her students. Good amount of extra credit, and opportunity to submit missed assignments. The Course goes by super quick, so be sure to keep up with the assignments and you'll be fine.

Really great class, its very easy to understand. I don't think I ever had a problem with it at all and I don't think I would change anything. I definitely learned a lot more about the subject, it answered some of my personal questions. I really enjoyed the course, the professor is very kind and wants you to pass I would recommend taking this course

the best professor i ever had! shes very understanding about the assignments. took a 4 week course everything is straight forward. she gets back to email quick and is willing to help you with anything. overall enjoyed her class!

Coach Bodnar is fun and very positive. The course is very heavy on discussion boards and participation between students, sometimes to such an extent feedback feels insincere. Overall though I found the workout logs a nice challenge and am happy to have taken the course.

The teacher was able to give me great feedback for every weekly workout I submit in.

Yes, easy and the tests are easy to take with the information for the test are all available in canvas

Very sweet professor, who wants you to do well in her class. Gives a lot of feedback. Make sure to make time for exercise.

I liked the self-paced nature of the class with accessible assignments. Yet, its short duration hindered retention. More discussion tasks over textbook questions would improve engagement. Though enjoyable, the informal textbook didn't aid retention much. Overall, I'd recommend it to others. Coach dede was great :-)

This was one of the best professors I've ever had, lots of extra credit opportunities. Very understanding and assignments beneficial to anyone! Definitely take this course with this professor.

1. I really liked that this class made us reflect on our own habits, stress, culture. 2. I disliked the exams, they were confusing at first. 3. I would change the exams, but the modules really helped learn content. 4. I learned a lot about all aspects of health, including how powerful stress is. 5. Overall, I really enjoyed the class.

1. The introduction to proper study methods was extremely helpful 2. Condensed time frame (but I acknowledge that I chose to take a condensed summer class) 3. More interaction with the professor vs the Pearson's app 4. Yes 5. Yes

This class was a short term online class and all the material was very doable in the time frame given. Coach Bodnar is extremely communicative and quick to respond, allowing for extensions and extra credit opportunities. The only thing I disliked was the use of Pearson which I hate with a passion, but it was super easy & informative tbh!

She loves what she does. I can't say that I didn't like anything about this class, as this is the 2nd time I have taken one of her classes. I wouldn't change anything about the class. I loved being able to be outside & interact with my kids while doing schoolwork. I learned a lot more about exercising. Yes, I enjoyed this class very much.

Professor Bodnar is amazing, she's always accommodating and encouraging. Next time I might take this class in person, I think I would enjoy it as a hybrid class. I would change it to a Hybrid Format for an interactive component. So far, I have learned so many things I did not know about the human body!

Professor Bodnar is a caring instructor who makes the class engaging. The workouts and discussions are helpful, and using Unstuck AI for study prep made this online class a breeze.

Professor Bodnar is a great instructor! I've learned so much in this class about health. She's always quick to respond to messages and offers plenty of extra credit opportunities. I really enjoyed the assignments because they made me reflect on my lifestyle in a meaningful way. Overall, 10/10 class!

I really liked that Coach Dede seems to really enjoy what she does and the passion for fitness shows. I don't have anything negative to say about the class or teaching methods. I would take this instructor again. I learned a lot in this class for example, I learned about my body and what it takes to maintain it. Overall i did enjoy the class.

She's great! She is understanding and makes the class go smoothly.

She is great! She is very understanding and knows how to make an online class go smoothly.

Coach Bodnar is an incredible professor! She's very passionate about her coaching. She provides clear examples of everything. Shes very organized. My gratitude to you for all you have done, which I will never forget.
