Coach Marks is a great teacher. He really knows alot about how to workout correctly. His class is very fun, it also helps that he is really nice to look at. HOT! But seriously take him if you want to build muscle, he will help you alot.

He's a good instructor very helpful and motivating.

So I was dreading taking a PE Class but my motivation came in Coach Marks, he is nice and so freakin HOT!!! I loved looking at him everyday, motivated me! WOW!

It was an ok class. Except there was one month where we didn't even do yoga and he would have us show up for just 10 mins and then leave just to tell us some information. That was REALLY annoying. Didnt get much of a workout as I was hoping to for this class. Theres a test & group presentation.

Great guy and SUPER Hot!!

I took this class online which was fast pace because it was only half a semester. There were about 2-3 short papers due every week and there were quizzes that were a little difficult. I find it very fun doing the assignments because I learned a lot. I used the textbook a lot and As long as you do your work, you'll do fine in the course.

You wouldn't think a football coach would be well suited to teach yoga, but he was awesome and made you feel at ease -- just what you want in a yoga class. Taking him again for intermediate yoga!

He really cares about his subject. If you want it, this class will make a difference in your health. He is RIDICULOUSLY HOT too

Took Intro Kin this summer at Laney College. Really wants you to succeed. Primarily a football coach, but still a good professor. He really tries and help you learn the material via class discussions and lectures. Class grade is predominantly participation, class discussion, and attendance. Group project is 50-60% of your grade.

Fun class, loaded with information!

I took Prof Marks twice, Intro to SP and HED2. He was amazing. Thankfully it was only 8 weeks and it really flew. The assignments were incredibly easy but they did make you think. I took them online and assignments were due every week, it seemed like there were a lot of assignments but they were very short. The tests were quite easy too. No brainer

He is like a Coach Ken Doll. He is a super sweet guy and knows a great deal about fitness. Really made me work hard.

He is a very good teacher who is very caring and wants you to do well in the future. The assignments are pretty basic and easy. The yoga is a lot of work but it was very beneficial in the end.

He isn't just a coach or muscle head; you can ask him about both the psychological AND physiological aspects of different workouts and muscle groups and he knows it all. The class is considered a lab so just show up and you get credit. He puts in 2 absences that don't count against you and also gives extra credit if you go over 2 absences. ez pass

Expectations are clear, lots of reading & quizzes. He motivates his students & explains the reasons for weekly quizzes. You get a lecture for each chapter, have to complete a reading assignment then a quiz. You have to put in the work, just like any other class. Don't know why his reviews are so low, I would take him again. Made psych interesting!

Prof marks is a great teacher. If you do the work he assigns and think like a critical thinker you should be able to pass his class. Every day is an important lesson so be prepared to work for the grade you want.

Professor Marks is a wonderful teacher. His classes require full participation, but he is very clear and concise about what is expected. Lots of group activities which I found very helpful in retaining the information. Highly recommend him to fellow students. Classmates and I thoroughly enjoyed our time there. He made the material fun.

If your a person who does good with helpful and motivational feedback I highly recommend this teacher, work is pretty easy not to crazy if you space it out, mostly online textbook assignments/quizzes and few short response

This Professor was amazing. You can tell that he wants you to succeed and do good. He is caring and provides wonderful feedback on the assignments. I enjoyed this class and learned so much. He responds fast to emails and is very accommodating. I recommend this professor.

This class is amazing! He gives great feedback and really wants you to learn about your mind in sports/competition. There are videos that he recorded and small assignments that made you really think about yourself and how to gain confidence and improve concentration. This class is on sports but he teaches clinical/general psychology as well.

Honestly, although there's a lot of reading and assignments, the class is extremely easy. Professor Marks is genuinely a good guy who wants his students to succeed. As long as you do the assignments, go to class, and take notes, you'll do great on everything!

I have taken multiple classes with Professor Marks and he is absolutely wonderful! Homework assignments are relatable to the lectures and provides extra credit opportunity. Definitely recommend for all Psychology and Kine classes.

Professor Marks was one of my first professors at this college this fall semester. I took the 8 week KINE050A class, it did not feel overwhelming and the course was very organized. Professor Marks is an awesome teacher and he is very encouraging, I enjoyed this class a lot. Definitely take his class if you get a chance, you wont regret it.

Awesome

A great professor. If you need to take Psyc 001 for one of your classes, I'd recommend taking him.

Professor Marks does well to make his lectures digestible and engaging. His assignments are also clearly described in Canvas and he links videos to him explaining the assignment for further clarification.

He clearly cares about his students and wants you to succeed. I definitely recommend taking any of his courses.

Professor Kevin Marks is a great Professor he listens to you and wants you to do great in his class and in the semester easy grading very caring all you need to do is attend class do your work and turn it in all your assignments I will take his class again .

(KINE010A) Course is very organized. He is knowledgeable, very encouraging,& easy to communicate with. I enjoyed this class & learned a lot about myself & habits as well. Please make sure that you watch the videos and turn in your assignments early. They require time & research but the subject is interesting. You'll get a lot out of this course!

By far the best professor I have taken. He did assign groups the first day which you work with the entire semester so you get a feel for the people. It does benefit you to get the book as it is part of your grade. It's an easy class if you do the reading and actually go. 10/10 would take again.

Professor Marks is the best professor I've ever had. He is passionate about the topic and teaches in a variety of ways. I would take an class that he teaches. He inspired my continued desire to learn.

Professor Marks made this class easy to understand and more enjoyable. He was very understanding, replies quickly, and cares about what he is teaching. Only think I would be change is personally being more aware of the assignments due throughout the week. However, I would take another class with this professor!

This Professor was awesome! Really sweet and seemed to really care for each individual student and their learning. On the first day he puts you into groups that you stay in for the remainder of the semester so you really get to know each other. Overall a really fun and interesting class.

Professor Marks provides clear guidance and allows you to work at your own pace. Grades fairly and has a pretty lenient late policy.

Extremely down to earth guy and you can tell he has done his research and can also tell loves psych. My favorite teacher while I was attending Solano!

I did enjoy his class. You can tell he is really passionate about teaching. I would recommend anyone to take his classes.

I was struggling to find a kine class to take that would accept me off the waitlist. I ended up emailing Professor Marks and he was the absolute sweetest! He made sure I was able to get into his class and that I understood the material since I was admitted right after classes started. He really listens to his students and I honestly 10/10 recommend

Professor Kevin Marks' class was an incredibly enriching and enjoyable experience. We learned various essential aspects of wellness,including mindfulness, fitness goal setting, muscular strength and endurance, as well as flexibility. Professor Marks is commitment to his students' growth and success, providing great feedback on our assignments.

amazing prof! super easy class. would recommend to anyone taking heavy semesters and they still need a couple more credits.

I had to take this course to get my PE credit and I am very glad I did. Professor Marks cares about the subject matter and you can tell. He provides feedback, and while there was a lot of work, its very manageable and I'm happy I put the work in because I feel like I will use what I learned in this class for the rest of my life.

Professor Marks knows his stuff as you listen to his videos. Assignments are based on the lecture videos, if you watch them and answer the questions, there's no reason you shouldn't get a good grade. I also like how he comments on the assignments you turn in, which is nice to know your hard work doesn't go unnoticed.

Mr. Marks is a very inspirational and caring Instructor, I wish I could take him for more classes. Follow along with the lectures and the quizzes will be easy. His class is well organized and he truly cares about all of his students!

All of his lectures are prerecorded and his assignments and discussions mainly use the lectures. Doable workload and his lectures were insightful. Gives feedback for almost all assignments and discussions. As long as you listen to the lecture, you will get the exact answer you are looking for, for his assignment questions, it's not hard to miss.

I took this class as a requirement for my psych major transfer degree. I took the intro to psych class at my highschool so being able to follow along in this class was way easier than I think it would be if I came to this class brand new. He is funny and his lectures are easy to follow and understand. I only wish he taught other psych classes.

Amazing teacher! His lectures are informative and intriguing as well. Always show up for class since he somewhat grades the first half of the semester on attendance plus his lectures help you with quizzes and exams. If you have any troubles and can't make it to class, communicate with him. He is very caring and wants every student to succeed.

Really loved taking this course with him! Professor was always sending out messages giving tips and always offering to help us find out our study method. 10/10, just make sure to hold yourself accountable and do you work, wonderful Professor that is passionate about his field.

Fair and knowledgable about psychology, I took his night class and it was pretty good after you get used to the 3 hour class schedule. He also always came to class with a good attitude and smile. Paying attention to the lectures and doing the readings he assigned makes the quizzes and test fairly easy so it was great having him as a professor.

Professor Marks lectures are top-notch, providing valuable insights and fostering understanding in the field of psychology. Highly recommended for students.

His lectures are key to learning in the class, he does assign homework reading chapters but they seem to be more of a supplemental aspect to his lectures. Final was 50 questions based on key aspects of the class along with a skit or class interactive activity for the other half of the final.

He is an awesome professor he offers help if you need it and it's an easy class to pass with an A+. The material is easy to understand and if you ask for help. Recommend taking his class.

Professor Marks was a fantastic professor. He's an inspirational professor who has a genuine passion for psychology and the success of his students. He is very understanding and will work with you to be successful in his class. We used McGraw-Hill for most at-home assignments, so be prepared for those. His class is truly unlike any other.

I definitely recommend professor Marks for Psychology001. He is very kind l and I can tell he cares a lot about his students success in the class. Provides great feedback that comes in handy. Professor Marks is also very well on getting back to emails quick which is very helpful. I learned a lot in this class, great professor!

This professor is amazing and very understand also his teaching style is awesome. He is very inspiring and doesn't gave a lot of homework and he explain everything in very easy way.

Professor Marks was an amazing instructor, he showed that he cared for his students and always gave constructive feedback! We used the McGraw Hill online book, as for homework, you'd have a weekly reading due at the end of each week on the chapter you're on. He wasn't strict on attendance but it was your responsibility to catch up on the reading.

I really enjoyed Professor Marks' Psychology course. He is very clear with is expected and the assignments are organized in a manageable fashion. Don't fall behind or get behind on work as late assignments WILL be penalized. Teaching style to be straightforward but informative. Very inspiring and motivating Professor you wont regret taking!

This is my favorite professor ! While it was online, he made the lecture videos detailed and clear. He would make the students feel appreciated for the amount of time and work they put into this class. The Assignments were pretty easy as long as you follow the textbook and he would give plenty of time to complete them. Highly recommend

Really easy class! He is super understanding and very helpful if you are struggling in anyway. Very inspirational and really driven to teach students how to obtain a easier mindset for test taking and learning in general. Just make sure you stay on top of your work! :)

I would take this class again and/or recommend it to a friend! The content is straightforward, and the lectures and concepts are understandable. Professor Marks responds to emails quickly and gives feedback on assignments.

Very straightforward class and not hard considering it's a summer course. Professor Marks is great, I really enjoyed taking this course and learning more about my health. Pretty fair grader as long as you follow the rubric and watch the lecture videos. I definitely recommend!

Great teacher. Great feedback. Great lectures. Inspiring.

He is a great mentor, you'll leave his class feeling motivated. He comes up with fun creative ways to teach so that's always interesting. There will be lots of weekly presentations with the people in your group so try to get along with everyone.

One of the best professors at solano. Cares about his students and gives good feedback on assignments. Overall easy class.

Pros: Energetic and passionate about teaching. He wants you to not be point-chasers and to integrate scholarly Psychological terms in your daily life. There's always something new in class with Dr. Marks. Cons: Answers questions in a complicated manner. Sometimes he misses a clear point of the question. Overall, he's good :)

Great class and even better professor!

Dr. Marks is an amazing teacher. Honestly one of my favorite professors ever. His lectures are entertaining and he really helps the class by going into detail and making analogies to help with learning the material. I would 100% take another class of his if it were an option. I'm a psychology major and he has inspired me to stay in the field.

The best psychology teacher I've ever met, clearly understanding, and entretaining class.

Great life psyc acknowledgement

This is a professor that's for the student and the students success. It wasn't easy gliding if you actually paid attention. He really wanted you to get the best information out of the class that you can get. To be extraordinary. There are things he has taught that I will practice for the rest of my life. Thank you Coach Marks for this amazing gift.

Amazing class recommend taking it !

Marks is a chill professor. I slacked off most of the semester but still learned a lot. Assignments were mainly online reading and questions. Just show up every day for group participation points (will excuse if absent) which will balance out poor quiz scores. Lectures were long but very engaging and informative. Overall easy class would recommend.

He's a really good professor. He takes out time to really be there for his students and make sure that they learn well. I recommend his class to any and ever body.

Hes an amazing professor, I would definitely take this class again. The quizzes and exams aren't the most difficult but you do have to study. You should most definitely take this class.

Professor Marks was great! Very nice and respectful during the semester. Be prepared to take notes and lots of them, he will discuss a lot of material during the lecture. Homework is minimal but beneficial, they help on the chapter tests. Attendance is crucial, as there is class activities that are worth many points that cannot be made up.

amazing professor i loved the class!

He was one of the best professors I have ever had in all my school years. His teaching style is excellent as he is very engaged in his lectures and shows enthusiasm. His class is not laid back by any means and you will have to put in the work, but I felt like I learned the most in this class out of all my other classes this semester.

I loved class with Dr. Marks! He's very knowledgeable, efficient, personable, inspirational, and makes the class laugh. His lectures, quizzes, and spontaneous group activities were very effective for learning, and he is respectful of students and their work. I'd recommend Dr. Marks to anyone for his care and excellence in teaching!

My first year of college and Professor Marks was great! I would say attendance is mandatory due to the fact that we took lots of notes during class (even though it was a lot it helped with the studying for quizzes we had) and also did some group activities that were worth lots of points. Overall I learned a lot this semester and he was great!

10/10 recommend. Super easy. Dr. Kevin is very uplifting, caring, personable, outgoing and a great professor. You need him as your psych teacher I promise. Attendance is super important because we always did in-class group discussions that were graded (they're super easy and low effort). Turn things in on time and you'll be just fine.

Professor Marks's use of real-world examples made the complex concepts in the class much easier to grasp. He took the time to provide personalized feedback on my assignments, which helped me improve significantly. His support made me feel confident in my ability to succeed in this challenging course.

I took psych 001 for summer which was 8 weeks so it was fast paced, Mr. Marks was a great professor, he is really easy going and emails you quick if you have any questions. He also responds quickly to grade assignments that are due, which is helpful! I really enjoyed his class and wish to have him again.

Kevin is caring and he gives lots of examples that are useful. he gives study guide which are very useful for a student like me who study hard before test day. he allows us sometiems to use notes for tests

Really understanding professor. Teaches everything well

Dr. Marks is an outstanding professor. You can tell he truly cares about you as a student and it helped me feel more motivated and seen, especially during an online course. He gives clear rubrics and helps you if needed. Although, $115 textbook is required and mine didn't even come as a book, just loose papers. Highly recommend overall!

Professor Marks is genuinely the best professor I have ever had. He shows that he truly cares about every one of his students by giving individualized feedback and sending weekly motivational messages. He is willing to work with students and help them out with anything needed. As long as you put in effort, he will put in the effort for you too!

Taking professor marks course was a lot of work but it was straightforward in my experience he was responsive with anything I had questions or trouble with that being said if you do take this course just do your work you will be completely fine I would take this professor again

He is the best professor and super good at explaining things.

He was a really awesome professor to have.

I'd definitely take a class with Dr. Marks again.

Took Dr. Marks for the second time in Fall of 25 (I stopped going to class3 last time don't do that). If in person, the lectures matter and you will be tested on what he says in units 2 and 3. Very good and easy to talk to if you have questions.

I enjoyed taking his class. He is very knowledgeable and professional at what he does. I appreciate that he takes the time to respond outside of class, with great enthusiasm while giving feedback and encouragement to students. He really cares about people's journey to fitness and wants you to succeed.

A wonderful professor, great with lectures, inspirational to students, and highly intelligent. I highly recommend you take any of his courses.

Professor Marks is a respectful and dedicated educator, he ensures that his students receive meaningful and effective learning experience. His lectures are clearly communicated, and he responds to inquiries in a timely manner. The classroom environment is engaging, including group activities and structured "brain breaks" to encourage participation.
