Monique is a very structured teacher. She does everything according to the greensheets. She's a great person... The class was ok.

recl 10 wasn't as fun as it was a couple semesters ago... the department changed the structure of the class entirely. it's not fun and games like it used to be. You are required to read two books. There are a bunch of essays.you are required to go to two skool events. Also you are required to do 8hrs of community service & there's a presentation.

she's a pretty hard grader. there are lots of essays. you are required to do community service and do a 30 minute presentation about it. class was pretty boring =p

the person who posted before me is an idiot.. Monique should not be fired. She's a good teacher that is passionate about what she does... she's fairly new.. the class is a little tough, but hey it's college, what do u expect? There is a lot of work and at the end there's a 30 min group presentation.

shes pretty chill about stuff, but def wont take late work. helpful in going over papers with you before you turn them in. explains things clearly. will spend the class time talking about whatever, if the class or her feels like something needs to be dicussed. 30 min pres at the end isnt hard if your group doesnt suck.

Prof. Duphily is an outstanding instructor, you want to learn about how to have a meaningful life this is the class. She's extremely helpful, and gracious to move deadlines around when she could tell it was needed. The class criteria is already laid out for this program, she does an excellent job coaching the students! Take this class with her!

This was Monique's first semester teaching a college course and she did a great job. I never would've known she was never taught a college course until she told us. The class is very structured. There were a few essays, 2 campus events you had to go to, and a group presentation at the end.

This teacher is actually a very nice likable teacher always has a smile on her face. The class on the other hand is a bust. Just go to class occasionally to get kind of whats going on, and you should be fine. Sadly i missed a peer editing day that dropped me down 15% which is crazy.Nothing should be worth that much. Other than that decent teacher

Monique was a wonderful instructor. She always came to class with a smile and cared very much for her students. For those who think Rec 10 is an easy class, think again. There is no such thing. Hard work pays off! I would take another class with Monique.

She's really nice and very helpful. The course work was very simple.

very friendly and helpfull. a few large projects/assignment, but very clear on all assignments. an overall fun teacher.

I enjoyed her class. SHe gives a lot of tedious assignments and papers but they're not too bad as long as you stay on top of them. Study guides from eboard relate directly to what she tests on and she grades very easy. I got no less than an A on all assignments. She is always very thorough and open to questions. I highly recommend her!

The assignments are simple but time consuming. You need the books to study for the test and sometimes for in class activities. Participation counts so that means attendance counts. Monique is friendly & knows her subject well. This class takes effort if you want an A. And if you actually want to learn, be open-minded and try new things!

Another wonderful person/professor at SJSU!!! Her creating a meaningful life class is easy and straight forward, she has a few large assignments but they are NOT hard! Most assignments are really simple...like "show and tell day"! Monique is very helpful and easy to talk with! My favorite class from last semester!

TAKE THIS CLASS ONLINE.It is SO easy, and Monique is very clear on what she wants and she is quick to respond to any questions. Stay on top of your assignments and you'll be fine. Do the study guides for the tests and the tests will be easy. Monique is super nice and makes the class interesting. Highly recommend taking her class online! Easy A.

My section was fully online=convenient. Follow her directions on assignments and you should have no trouble receiving full credit. You will need the book. There are 2 exams and 1 final exam. Do the study guides and be sure to at least skim the chapters to get the general idea before starting the exams (they are timed, 60 mins) Easy area E GE class.

Very fun easy class. Only met once a week and had to do simple assignments via Canvas. Had a couple short field trips, and class was mostly presentations from guest speakers and your small groups. You actually meet new people in this class and learn things about creating a meaningful life. Highly recommend this GE Area E class.

She was a very nice person, and made a huge difference in my passing of the class. Instruction may at times seem vague, and the grading may lag occasionally, but overall the class was pretty good. Overall, I felt like Durphilly genuinely cares, and will work with you to ensure you pass her class,

It was a very interactive online class. There were weekly assignments due on Wednesday and agenda for next week posted on Thursday. Assignments were graded on a timely manner. She gives good feedback on your writing and leaves questions that you can look into versus imposing herself on your writing. She was very flexible and was very understanding

Great for it being an online course. Always left very helpful feedback on each assignment. Assignments build upon each other, which is helpful for the final paper. Assignments due each week, which is typical for 100w. Only thing I didn't like was the group project, which was tough to do online. I did much better on individual assignments.

A lot of people give her a bad rating but Monique is actually a really good 100w teacher. She takes a while to grade stuff yes, but she's not a hard grader by any means. Do the work, follow APA and you'll be fine. If you have any questions or struggle with writing like I did go to her for help and she's amazing. She gives extra credit too!

Monique was a fantastic teacher and I was able to glean a lot from her class. Her papers and homework do build upon each other and help you eventually write your final paper. Monique also gives excellent feedback to help her students learn and to write well. To get an "A" read carefully follow each rubric, learn APA, and finish all your homework.

I was scared to take Monique because of some of the reviews below but turns out she is amazing. She makes the online class very interactive and truly cares about improving your writing. You can get an A if you follow her rubric,APA guidelines, and the schedule she posts weekly. I used to DREAD writing, but after this class I don't mind it!

Good prof. She's kind and caring, has a very optimistic and spiritual outlook on life. Very positive attitude. Only 2 books are required for class. Both are under $10. This class implements you to get out of your comfort zone. Fun and creative projects throughout the course. Complete all work and you'll get an A.

She assigns a lot of assignments (once a week) but they are merely free points if you take even 15 20 min of your day to do them. She is extremely lenient on grading and finals and midterms are not worth as much as many other classes, so if you do well on your typical/normal assignments this might be the most free A you can ever get.

Monique is thorough, organized, and a fun professor. She provides you with the tools you need to succeed but she definitely makes you work for the grade. There are a lot of assignments but it is definitely manageable if you plan efficiently. There are several group projects, but you are able to do them remotely which makes it easier. Great class!

If you struggle with English, don't take online. Be ready to put in TIME & WORK. Can be a tough grader but follow rubrics to detail & you'll be good, I didn't do well on 1st assignment, but after looking at rubrics I got A's. One group project, offers extra credit, may accept late assignments, build interest & email with her, she will help!

Shes good

This class is so easy if you just participate and turn your work in on time. As long as you are answering the questions she asks in your writing and can defend your claims then she will give you a good grade. She gives feedback to pretty much everything and is really helpful.

If you have capacity to understand her assignments in depth and write good papers- you will be fine. She wants her students to succeed and do well. She gives great feedback and allows for multiple resubmissions for assignments if it means it will benefit you and your future papers. Shes really nice and very responsive.

A non-native english speaking student's experience: Pr Duphily was really kind and encouraging, which helped me survived the class. Prepare to put A LOT of your time writing and researching. Clear but lengthy criteria, if you follow instructions, you should be fine. Tests were tricky and time-consuming. I honestly gave up half way but got a B

I had Recl10 with professor Duphily which is asynchronous. She uploads weekly modules with instructions every Monday and her assignments are pretty straightforward. 1 book is required and another is provided via pdf. She is pretty chill and easily accessible if you have any questions. Fun class!

This class was asynchronous and Ms. Duphily was very organized in keeping Canvas updated and responding to emails. I liked the content and learned a lot (lots of psychology themes which made it interesting). There is a good amount of work assigned each week, so just make sure to keep up. There was no final, just a project. Overall, cool class.

She gives out lots of big projects, classwork engagement, and only 20 textbook assignments. Not much homework and no final exam or any tests in PH15. Lessons she teaches are worth it and meaningful, always encourages positive lifestyles and mental health. Very understanding as well. Great professor who really wants to inspire her students.

She is an amazing professor and very inspirational. In her class, there are sometimes discussion posts that we must do with other people in the classroom so attending is a MUST, and also she has activity assignments within SJSU that she had made us do as a class, and on go to choose our activities our own time as participation points.

Don't take this course if you're not willing to show up at least 2/3rds of the time, as many classes are mandatory for credit. Lots of small homework assignments that were annoying but pretty manageable. I personally found a lot of the concepts covered enriching.

I was nervous because of her RateMyProfessor reviews, but she's actually really chill. There are lots of slideshows and some tedious McGraw Hill work, but the projects are fun and the class is engaging. She's easy to talk to, understanding with late work, and you'll do fine if you show up, communicate, and stay involved. (PH/RECL-15)
