She's really nice but don't let that fool you.
I was in the very first class she taught, and despite her nervousness and inexperience, she did a very good job. She was thorough and flexible. Her class is probably the easiest I've had at PCC.
we get to take tests as a group. i seriously have not opened the text book. this teacher is sweet.
Awesome teacher. She's really interested in people and whether they are making healthy choices. Not pushy, supper cool. Recommend.
Shannon used clear lecture and good humor to get her point across. I learned a lot with very little effort. Good for students needing the credit for transfer, maybe less useful for students who really need the knowledge. Easy assigments & tests were open book/notes and in groups.
Very impressed with this teacher. Got the whole class involved in the subject. That's how learning should be!!!! DEFINATELY recommend her for anyone!
I was totally not looking forward to taking health, but it's required for transfer. The class turned out to be super easy, Shannon isn't at all judgemental about the health choices you are making but puts out the info for you to change if you see fit. Very relaxed class, class discussions, videos. 2 tests, open notes/book.. very easy.
Shannon ROCKS! I never thought health class could be so fun and interesting. She is a great person, and I highly recommend her class.
She is a really great teacher and has great lectures. I've learned alot. She's very laid back.
I was not interested in taking a Health class, but I ended up loving it in the end because of Shannon Carr. She is an excellent professor and I would recommend taking her!! She keeps things interesting and she tries to get to know the students. I really, really enjoyed her class.
Shannon was awesome! I took Health as a filler, and it has been my favorite class! She is the best teacher, she is interesting, understanding and funny! If you can, take her, you won't regret it!
Great class. Clear lectures, and instructor cares. Simple if you read/take notes.
Shannon is an amzing teacher :) she is funny during lectures and VERY organized. she always makes time during the week to work on your projects and you can stay after class for questions. tests are way easy, midterm, final. i never read the book, just as long as you listen to the lectures and maybe print out the lecture notes you have an "A"
The tests were easy; you can have a one-page cheat sheet. As long as you attend the lectures and have the textbook (I didn't even read it, I just used it to study for the tests,) it's a pretty easy A. There was a group project, but depending on your group, it can be frustrating or a breeze.
Shannon is one of the greats. She is a caring, passionate, intelligent teacher who cares about her students lives and learning. I took her class based on a rate my professor rating and I am so glad I did. I couldn't thank her enough for all of her help this term, and her continued commitment to my education. Bottom line... TAKE HER CLASS!
Shannon is a peach. She is funny, fair and engaging. I was not looking forward to taking this class but ended up liking it. She states very clearly what you are expected to know on the tests and allows one page of notes to be used. I actually learned a lot. Highly recommend.
Shannon is the best professor i have EVER had. I mean that. She cares about her students lives and takes personal interest in how you are doing in and outside of class. She is friendly, easy to understand, caring, and to the point. She is one of the very few teachers who has made a lasting impression on me. I will never forget her thoughtfulness.
Shannon is a great teacher and really cares about her students. Class discussions were interesting and entertaining. Even though the class wasn't very hard I still learned a great deal from her. I would love to take another class from her.
Sharon is an awesome teacher. She gave me perfect scores on every assignment, and she lets you use a page of notes (front/back) for the midterm and final. My attendance was far from perfect, and I only read the book sometimes, but I still got an A. I'd highly recommend her.
Shannon is an amazing teacher. She knows her material, and has a personal interest in students who actually care about their health. She is very fair and generous with her grading. She has great powerpoint presentations and is great at getting the class to participate in discussions. Definitely take her!
Shannon is indeed a great instructor. Her online class was well laid out and easy to follow. Definitely recommend her. You will write 4 papers, weekly tests and take a midterm and a final.
she is very easy for my HE 250 if you review the powerpoint and get a good 1 page of cheat sheet for tests then u will easilly get an A.
Just do most of the reading or try, and participate. You'd have to be a fool to fail this class..
Fabulous teacher! Very clear about what she wants. Stress free class! She has great teaching abilities! Very friendly. Definately take a class from her.
Great teacher, good discussion... Not hard at all. The test were really easy. She is an equal teacher and gives everyone the chance to talk. TAKE HER!
Wonderful instructor! Course schedule and materials are clearly laid out at the beginning of the term so there are no surprises. Class discussions are engaging and helpful. College can be kind of an impersonal experience, but not in this class. She will know your name and take the time to ask how you're doing. Simple gestures go a long way.
Fun, easy, I've learned a lot in this class! really helpful! don't fall asleep cuz she will ask you while lecturing!
Shannon is fab! She keeps the class relevant. No stupid busy work. Clear instructions. She is helpful and knowledgeable.
She is a great teacher. Takes an interest to her students and is always willing to answer your questions. Several assignments, but all are relevant and pretty simple if you read the directions. The class was a double positive: you actually learn the material, and its not difficult at all.
Shannon was one of the best professors I have ever had. Her class was really fun and I learned SO MUCH! Her class has a few assignments but they are all pretty easy if you take the time. I wish I could take Shannon for more courses; she knew everyone's name and remembered things you talked about the previous class. She was so thoughtful and caring!
Shannon was so great about talking to everyone and making sure we all understood the class work. It was a relaxed environment that provided lots of laughter well still learning.
Nice woman, easy A. She will make sure you are paying attention by asking you a random question to make sure you aren't zoning out, which can be embarrassing if you are in fact zoning out.
Very good teacher. Will ask questions if she thinks you are zoning out. She engages the class in very good discussions and is easy to follow. Her assignments will make you sweat though!
Totally awesome teacher. Really cared about us actually learning how to live healthier. She memorized almost everyone's name by the third class and interacted with the class during lecture.
Great teacher, caring and makes you feel important and that she cares what you have to say which is nice.
Amazing teacher. Very engaged and very upfront. Taking a class from her next term too!
Very easy class. Shannon learned everyone's names pretty fast. She was engaged the whole time. It is very hard not to get an A with all of the extra credit offered..
I loved Shannon! She was an amazing professor and fun to see lecture. She was witty and knowledgeable about her subject. Highly qualified as a health teacher. Very friendly and gave good feedback. I always looked forward to her class, and the awesomely weird in class discussions we always had. She remembered our names quicky and was very personable
I only had to open up the textbook twice the whole term- once for the take home midterm and once for the take home final. It is an easy class but it is also enjoyable; she's a great teacher.
This is a great health class and fun to take. Shannon instructs the online version very well and offers positive support and feedback. The assignments are fun, educational and can help anyone to take a better look into their personal health, goals and family life. Thanks Shannon!
Awesome teacher, learned so much and Shannon is fun loving. She also is really easy to communicate with and wants to see everyone succeed in her class.
LOVED HER! GREAT WITH STUDENTS. LECTURES ARE VERY INFORMATIVE AND NOT BORING. VERY FLEXIBLE. EASY A. I LEARNED ALOT, I RECOMMEND HER TO ANYONE. SHES FUNNY TOO =)
Shannon is a great teacher, I really enjoyed going to her class. She made the lectures seem more intriguing and not like a lecture normally is. I recommend Shannon to any college student that is looking for a fun learning environment.
Shannon is an exceptional instructor and was the only class that I actually looked forward to this past term. She is clear, informative, and her sense of humor is addictive. An easy A, but do yourself a favor and get a head start on the work, it creeps up on you.
Awesome prof! She really inspired me to care about the subject. She is so relatable. She really cares about her students more than almost any other prof I've ever had. I highly recommend this class. Even if you hate the subject -- you'll learn from Shannon. Take home exams + one long research paper. She is always clear about what she wants.
1 midterm paper, 1 final paper, 1 long research paper, weekly journal entries, and a final five minute speech. You will participate every week in class and will learn and share with others. After two years at PCC, this is the best class / teacher / environment to share and learn from, ever. If I was in charge, this class would be mandatory, period.
Ms. Carr is great, a wonderful teacher and person! Almost a guaranteed A+ if you show up and complete all assignments.
Best teacher I have ever had in my entire life. Im taking all her classes next year. Everyone should tak her class, it changes your life!
Great class, extremely easy to get an A. She has a great sense of humor and really makes the class discussions inviting. I would totally take any class with her again.
A caring teacher who is nice and understanding. Engaging in class and has a good sense of humor. Very straight forward to the point and makes you realize things.
Great fun teacher and her class is fun and interesting.
She's an excellent teacher who explained everything you need to do in her class in the beginning to pass. She made Health fun and wasn't judgmental. She really wanted us to do our best and strive. I really enjoyed her class. Her exams were straight forward and we got to use our textbook.
Shannon was such an understanding and helpful person. She really cares about her students and is passionate about teaching them. Her class was fun and she made everyone feel welcome. I would recommend her to anyone!
Amazing teacher! She is funny and very kind. Work is not hard just be sure to take good notes and you will do great.
Super great teacher. you will love her.
This class surprised me. Shannon is a really cool lady who is really funny. There is little to no homework but the midterm, final, and research paper sneak up on you. The main concern in the class is stress and you might actually learn a lot about yourself. Good class, and an awesome lady. If you take it you won't regret it.
Shannon is a pretty awesome lady. She only had us for an hour twice a week but you could tell she really cared about our health. She outlines exactly what is going to be on tests and what she expects from the assignments. I would recommend her to anyone!
One of the most AMAZING teachers I have ever had -- helpful, fun, caring, and bright! She cares about everyone and interacts with the entire group! LOVE HER!
No matter what class I have with Shannon she is always knowledgeable and up to date on current information. She never forgets a student, is incredibly engaging and is sincere in her concern for each individual student. I make a point to take a class with her whenever I get the opportunity. She is by far my favorite instructor.
You will learn a lot of first aid and safely. Only notable homework was some reading. But mostly we went over the in class. It was very hands on learning, and she will help you if you are struggling. She was nice to everyone, and she corrected the book, when it was wrong. Had a very good understand of first aid. Great class and teacher!
Shannon does as much as one could expect her to do with a health education class. She does a great job making topics interactive through group discussions and presentations + exams are take homes. She always wants to hear your opinion and plays some interesting videos. Just make sure you pay attention when she's lecturing! (She knows who's listenin
Shannon was awesome! Super funny! Great lectures! If she doesn't know the answer to something, she will research it for you. She knows if you're not paying attention! She likes to randomly choose students and ask questions.
Shannon is such an amazing teacher, I truly love being her class and have made it so that I took a couple of her health classes just to have her as an instructor. She's so funny, sweet, nice, lovable, I really can't say enough great things about her. She's also very personable and gets to know her students by being social and not just lecturing.
Shannon Carr was a truly wonderful instructor. She has a genuine and authentic personality, she is a great lecturer and she is extremely knowledgeable. Her explanations are concise and her grading and expectations are clear. Awesome. A +++
Best teacher I've had so far at PCC. She's very educated in this subject. I had so much interest in the class. I never missed a class. She will notice if you don't pay attention, so she'll ask you a question or ask for your opinion. She cares a lot for her students, she wants nothing but success for them. Take her class!
She is very nice and very clear on what she expects for class, has very clear test reviews, and all files can be found on her spot website. I would not suggest skipping, the textbook is (in my opinion) atrocious, but necessary for some assignments/studying, and you're better off going to class where she tells you what's important to remember.
Shannon was really straight forward and down to earth about what she expects from you and how to ace the class. Absence and disrespect will put you on the downward spiral. We were really able to connect as peers in her class through discussions and group projects. She is extremely intelligent, fair and real. It was a pleasure.
Shannon is amazing and very inspirational. She genuinely cares about all of her students and quickly learned everyone's name. She read over all of our assignments and essays and took an interest in our lives. She is not just a teacher trying to earn a paycheck, but a wonderful woman trying to make the world a better place. I was so excited about ma
Shannon is so amazing!!! She truly cares about her students and wants to listen to what you have to say. She is so extremely sweet and as long as you do the portfolio's and participate you will get an A. She is very open about her life in class which helps you connect with her. On every assignment you turn in she will comment on it as well.
I have had the pleasure of taking multiple classes with Shannon. She is an amazing instructor with a heart of gold. Her lectures are engaging and her teaching style is sincere. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone with HE requirements or with credits to fill.
This was more than just a health class. Shannon Carr really cares about her students, and notices when you're feeling down or if you weren't in class. She is extremely knowledgeable about health, you can tell by how easily she explains things. It felt really good to go to class. As long as you participate and do the homework, you will get an A.
The sweetest teacher ever! Shannon checks on her students constantly when she gets the chance too. She carries a smile and definitely lives a healthy life. She is respectful of life events that everyone runs into (sometimes aren't the greatest) As long as people are participating and giving effort then they'll get an excellent grade. No texting tho
Shannon's class changed my life. I came out a new person with a new set of skills and new outlook on life. She truly cares about her students as individuals and as a class. She is incredibly smart and respectable, and some of the class conversations will really leave you thinking. Homework is easy and helpful. Projects are fun.
Shannon is a wonderful, caring teacher. She made the class fun as well as informative. I would definately reccomend any class that Shannon teaches, but especially HE 252. You won't regret taking it or having the privilege to be certified to save a life. My favorite teacher and class by far!!
The class i took was for first aid and CPR and AED. Only 2 class and each one lasted 5 hours on saturdays. 1 credit. She is so fun and i understood everything! Very easy!
Shannon is extremely nice and understanding. Definitely an easy A if you complete all your assignments. I really enjoyed her class and hope to see her in the future.
Shannon is an obvious expert in her field. You will learn not only from her brilliant lectures but great choice in textbooks. Out of the many classes I have taken at PCC, the textbooks she has used are my favorite and I keep them to refer to. I look forward to taking another class with her before I transfer to PSU.
I took her personal health class and ended up loving it. Being a morning class I wasn't to thrilled about it, but she always made it a nice start to the morning. She genuinely cares about her work and her students. Such a great teacher! There wasn't a ton of assignments and the tests were very fair. Would definitely recommend taking this class!
Shannon is an amazing instructor! Youll grow to appreciate her and its for sure an easy A class if you do all the assignments, even then shes flexible with late assignments. Just a great person who loves her field of work.
I love Shannon! She is funny and easy to get along with. I truly enjoyed showing up for class each day. She really loves what she teaches and does it a way to make you remember it. The class was very hands on with fun re-enactment projects that really tested you! Id highly recommend her class.
This first aid/CPR class only met twice but Shannon managed to learn everyone's name and she also brought snacks for the second day. She is such a sweetheart and truly made learning CPR and first aid techniques fun. Everyone should take this class!
Shannon is the best teacher I have had at PCC. She truly loves and believes in what she teaches and it shows. The class is about Stress & Health Management, so hint, hint, the class was very stress free. Fun activities in class such as coloring, eating, yoga, meditating, socializing, etc. What a wonderful class to de-stress!
As a long-time instructor at PCC, I was required to take a First Aid course, because of my area of instruction (Physical Education). She was well-versed in the subject, used many overheads, supplied first aid equipment for the class, and knew her material--forward and backward! Very helpful in the hands on training and supportive throughout!
She is an amazing teacher. I took her class in 2018. She is very helpful. Her class is very easy to pass.
Shannon is one of the sweetest people I have ever met. She really cares about what she does and does a great job teaching health. I shared a textbook with a friend. There is alot of homework but none of it is hard or takes long. This class is similar to therapy, which is a good thing.
I absolutely loved this class! Shannon was one of the best professors I have had at PCC. She is so genuine, caring and compassionate and she will brighten up your day. If you ever get the chance to take a class with her I would highly recommend it. If you struggle with stress often or just want to learn more about it, then this class is for you.
Shannon is genuinely caring and kind. She's funny but provides a serious and informative learning environment. You work with groups a lot and need to take notes outside of class, which is fine. She provides a lot of things for your kit out of pocket and makes sure to learn your name and how your day is going. One of the best profs I have ever had!!
Shannon is probably the best professor I have ever had. Her class lectures were very informative, but also included the class in the discussion. It felt more like a conversation than a lecture. Her assignments are few, but lengthy. As long as you show up most of the time and do the homework, you're good to go. Again, AMAZING professor.
Words truly can't adequately describe what an amazing human being Shannon is! She's such a genuine, understanding, loving person. She loves her students! As long as you communicate with her, do the assignments and show up, you'll pass easily. I plan on taking both of the other classes she teaches just because it's her teaching them!
Amazing caring Professor. I don't need anymore HE classes but taking her other class just because she is just amazing. If you show up and make an effort you will pass. Just love her teaching style. You will have to do some reading but she also goes over the book in class. Most of the homework comes from the book along with personal assessments.
Shannon was a delight. The class was both easy and fun to take! Weekly assignments were simple and deadlines could be pushed back as far as possible with communication with Shannon. Highly recommend this class!
Shannon is genuine, kind, & shows the utmost care for her students. I have never met an instructor like her. Her personality speaks for itself. All that aside, she's organized & has a clear grading criteria. Her lectures are fun & weekly assignments are simple and straightforward. Midterm & final were both open book and can be taken w/ a group!
Shannon is the most WONDERFUL instructor Ive ever met! Shes so loving and cares so much for her students. Shes easy to get along with and makes sure you know the material before you leave. Always has a smile on her face and treats all her students with respect. I love Shannon I cannot explain how amazing she is. Highly recommend!
Shannon Carr is literally the most caring and respectful professor at PCC. She really cares about each of her students and it shows. Her HE 242 was an easy and super helpful class to take. The workload is very manageable and she is super flexible with assignments and whiling to work the students needs. I wish I could have had her year round.
Super nice professor! Workload was easy going while still full with information. With online learning the main things were discussion posts which were engaging and interesting. Shannon is very thorough and tries to include everyone.
Super great class! One to two chapters of reading per week, plus a discussion post and a 20 question quiz, then you're done for the week! Can be finished super quick and the reading is actually pretty interesting. No zoom meetings (fully online) so I didn't get to interact but she seems super helpful and caring. Will take another class with her!
She is a very nice teacher , one of the best !
Shannon is invested in her students' well-being and cares a lot. The class itself is not that difficult, just read the assigned chapters/lectures, take notes, do the discussions, and complete the quizzes and you will be successful. Such a sweet lady! I took HE 242 (Stress and Human Health) and it was great. Lots of good information.
Took Shannon for a First Aid class before COVID. Absolutely wonderful experience. Shannon was hilarious and was invested in every student's successes. The whole class environment felt so welcoming and friendly, and the learning process for first aid techniques was spot on. Would definitely take another class with her again!
Shannon is hands down THE BEST INSTRUCTOR I have had. When I say you can take any class she teaches, and enjoy it, I mean it. I had to take a health class for my degree and expected it to be bland and boring, like high school health. Dang, was I wrong! I always left the class with a smile on my face, and an uplifted day. :) 10/10!!!
Shannon was great! Super caring. Flexible with assignments. Always responded quickly when I reached out for help. I learned so much taking her class.
She remade HE252 in an online format and made it so easy and accessible (well organized). She's an awesome teacher and extremely understanding. Her Zoom discussions were always fun and she tries to get everyone to participate. Her assignments were also very easy to complete.
She always kept in mind class and timing. Whenever I had an issue I could email her and she would respond quickly and with diligence. Along with sharing personal stories or questions in class she always welcomed. I really enjoyed taking her First Aid class. If you enjoy first aid take her, Online was fine but in person a million time better!!!
Shannon did everything in her power to make the class enjoyable. During class discussions, she would often make appropriate jokes and encourage us to participate. While this class is very easy, it's incredibly informal and I learned a lot. Taking health with her this semester was great and I highly recommend taking any of her courses.
cares about students and easy work
Shannon is such a caring and incredibly hilarious person, and I learned so much in her class. She fully explains lectures, replies to every discussion post, and communicates with students throughout the term. She has a lot of real-life experience with first aid and emergencies, so her stories are always interesting and helpful. I loved her class!!!
Shannon is one of those Professors that you wish you could take every single class with. I came out of her class with knowledge on how to manage my stress. I looked forward to every single lecture with her. You will not regret taking any of her classes. One discussion a week with two replies, one quiz a week, and weekly written assignments.
Shannon cares so much about her students and is so honest. She teaches health in a way that actually makes more want to become a better person. Only three assignments that are straight forward with great feedback. I always would look forward to going to her class.
Carr does a fantastic job of making everyone feel welcome and respected. she makes sure to have some fun in class as long as we understand the subject. In the First aid class, the first half would be lectures/videos and then we would go on and practice things hands-on. She took extra days to teach those who didn't understand. There is no busy work
Angel
Goddess saint sent from the very heavens. We don't deserve her.
Shannon is an amazing professor. You can tell she genuinely cares about each and every one of her students and it was amazing being in her class. She is down-to-earth and easy-going. If you put effort into participating and taking notes, this class should be an easy A.
Honestly, wasn't expecting to have the kind of experience I did with Shannon. She was super nice, understanding and overall as a professor I would highly recommend!
She is one of the kindest teachers I've had; she cares so much about her job and students. She is easy-going and checks in with all of us.This class had me taking care of myself more than I normally do, she emphasized the importance of self-care and had us practice it throughout our week. Couldn't ask for a better Health teacher.
Caring professor, clear with her grading and isn't difficult to succeed in this class. She really seems to care for her students and about the topic. She cares about your mental health and helps you reflect on your areas that need improvement.
Genuinely enjoyed showing up to every class with my camera on. Honestly, an amazing class and teacher if you're dealing with stress in college. So caring and very chill with late homework, as she says, "This class isn't here to stress you out."
Professor Carr is an absolutely wonderful educator! Shes incredibly good at conveying what shes teaching through both words and actions and truly wants you to enjoy the course. The materials are super easy to grasp as long as you are willing to sit down and do some introspection on your own stress.
Professor Shannon is an amazing teacher who genuinely cares about her students' well-being. Her class is engaging and manageable, plus Unstuckstudy was a huge help with exam prep.
She is a very nice teacher. Only wants the best for her students and herself which is really good. The only thing I wasn't about was having to turn on our cameras and show our face every single class. Other than that I really didn't mind taking her class at all. There was one quiz every week about the new thing we learned. Good teacher :)
Such an easy grader, super nice and understanding as long as you communicate.
