I took Covin for my required Healthy Life Skills class, and she's a great professor. She is clear and enthusiastic during class and made an otherwise unbearable class fun! Show up to class and just do the assignments and you will pass. The assignments are pretty involved but if you buckle down you can get an A.
Awesome! Wants you to succeed!
Healthy Life Skills was my first college class to take. Mrs. Covin is patient, understanding, and is willing to help you no matter what. As long as you do your homework ( McGraw- Hill Connect) and study for your tests you will get an A. Attendance is a huge part of class.
Take her! Do all your work and you'll get an A but she is not afraid to fail you if you just flat out don't try. She is such an awesome teacher and person truly loves teaching and loves her students (oh and the Spurs a lot)
Professor Covin was always helpful and understanding of student need.
Loved taking Covins class! Amazing teacher and an inspiration!
Had Professor Covin for my Healthy Life Skills class. Overall I'd say she was a really good teacher. She was really interactive with her students and was one of the few professors that didn't just stand up there and talk - she showed videos, gave in-class assignments, had guest speakers, extra credit, & encouraged people to work in groups.
Professor Covin does a great job of teaching how to strive and achieve complete wellness in your life. She genuinely cares about you as a student and wants to see you succeed. This is a required class at UCO and since you have to take try as hard as you can to get into her class. You will love it!
Professor Covin is awesome! She's very helpful and makes the class interesting and fun. If you do all of your homework and projects and make decent grades on the tests then you'll easily pass the course.
This was actually a pretty fun class. I thought I was going to hate it. The tests are easy, just study the notes she offers on D2L and you'll for sure pass it. She always tells you what the extra credit is on the test before test date. She seems to be pretty helpful even though I never talked to her. I HIGHLY recommend her. Very easy A.
Make sure you show up. She has many extremely good strategies for helping you remember important parts for tests. Very informational, useful, and interesting info. Some assignments are a bit long and strange, but she puts them there for your benefit, and it helps. One of the best teachers I've ever had. Wish I could review longer.
ShoCo is wonderful. She truly cares about her students and remains upfront about everything. The homework and quizzes aren't bad so don't expect anything random or unexpected (except her wild and funny comments). She 100% prepares you and allows you to be your best in her class.
Shoco is awesome! I could not have asked for a better professor. She actually makes you want to come to class due to high energy and big heart!
LOVED this class. She's hilarious. Lectures are never boring. Only complaint would be how scatter-brained she can be sometimes. Other than that, great class easy to pass.
I took Shoco for Healthy Life skills and would definitely recommend her! She does an awesome job of preparing you for exams, especially the final. Class is not ever boring because she has a great sense of humor and engages students. She offered 50 bonus points during the semester! I would take her again for sure!
ShoCo is an amazing professor! You will absolutely love her class! Her class is easy if you do your homework and study for exams and quizzes.
She is an amazing professor and has great lectures and materials. Tests are easy as long as you go to class and pay attention to lecture. Definitely recommend!!
really laid back professor. Complete all assignments and you will pass. I never studied for my test and always passed with nothing lower than a C.
Probably the nicest, most down-to-earth professor you could take at UCO. Her class is NOT hard to pass, she even tells you that. It is an Easy A for sure. She's funny and really cares about her students. She does give extra credit and she makes class very enjoyable. I would definitely take her again.
Amazing class not hard at all as long as you show up to class and participate.
She was very sweet! Definitely every understanding. Such an easy class if you just show up. Rarely have any homework in the class. 10/10 would recommend her if you have to take a healthy life skills class
She is a really nice person and a fun person. Her class isn't hard at all. You just have to listen to lectures and do the online reading (pay attention to when online assignments are due though). There's some other small assignments and a 50 pt bonus opportunity. Her tests are easy -- look at the powerpoint notes and any study guides she posts.
Covin is a great professor. If you just do your work it'll be easy for you. She's very sweet and understanding and tries to make class more fun. You can get extra credits in her class too.
Covin is an amazing person who is very knowledgeable and passionate about health. Class is fun and easy as long as you can keep track of when things are due.
Professor Covin was amazing! her lectures are really funny. She holds nothing back she is so real and laid back. she also gives out great study guides and extra credit
She is one of the most caring individuals I have met. She genuinely cares about you and how you do in her class and life. Talk to her and she will make sure she is listening. Take her just because of how sweet and funny she is.
BEST HEALTH PROFESSOR EVER!! Cares 100% about her students and their success both in her class and in general too!! Highly recommend her! Tests are online except the final is taken in class. Easy assignments throughout the semester!!
Professor Covin is amazing! She seems more like a friend than a professor. She cares a lot about her students and is super sweet! All the homework and tests are taken online (expect the final), and you can use your notes, so it's pretty easy. I would highly recommend taking her for the course!
Loved prof Covin.
I'm not going to lie to you. Professor Covin will brighten your day when you walk into class, nearly every time. She actually cares about her students and the course material. The material is easy, but can overwhelm you if you procrastinate consistently.
Take this class. Take it take it take it. Sho-Co (what she'll have you call her) is very cute and funny and she cares about what's going on in your life. She is super lenient with stuff if you just go and talk to her. Most fun you will ever have in a health class.
Shoco (As we call her) is the best professor I have ever had. She is so willing to help you succeed, she truly wants the best for all of her students. None of the material in the class is difficult and you can always ask her anything if you need help. She will also be there for you if anything happens in your personal life and you need someone.
She is so caring for every single one of her students. She legitimately wants you to do well and succeed, not only in her class but in life. She makes her class easy and painless, even fun most of the time. Tests are easy and participation gets you into a good spot with her. She's loving and fun, what else could you want in a professor?
I loved Sho-Co sooo much!! If you are taking health please take her! She is amazing and truly cares about you and how you are doing. All the tests besides the final are online and at home so you can use your notes! The final was super easy and she reassures you a lot which is great! 10/10 recommend her!
Sho-Co is so amazing! She is a great professor and really cares about the class and her students. The class is an easy A and she is hilarious. I highly recommend her class you will not regret it!
Shoco is an awesome professor. She truly cares about the success of her students and enables them to reach their goals by having a plethora of information available. Text book online w/ access code for homework.
ShoCo is amazing! If you're needing Healthy Life Skills as a requirement, take her. She really cares about her students and sets you up for success. Her class is actually really fun and I would love to take her again. She does take attendance for a grade. 3 exams ONLINE, and the final is in class. This class is a breeze.
Shoco is amazing. She opens up conversations beyond the textbook. Though there were times I was bored the last lecture made it all worth it. Please take this class with Shoco.
Shonna Covin was seriously such a cool teacher! I wasn't really looking forward to taking Healthy Life Skills just because I thought it would be boring, but ShoCo made it very entertaining and really encouraged us to discuss and think about the topics covered. Really super sweet lady! Have to buy online textbook for quizzes.
She is awesome!! Her class isn't super hard and she cares for all of her students! Show up and listen to the lectures and you should do fine. She is so encouraging and will help you with any problem!
ShoCo is an awesome professor! She really cares about all of her students and wants to make sure you succeed. As long as you do your wellness journal and take the tests you'll make an A.
If you take ShoCos Health class, you will be blown away by her charismatic personality. She is passionate about health, and helps drive/instill that in you. There are a handful of outside class assignments, all exams (except final) were online, and Quizes (online also) nearly every week. The book is digital, and her class is fun! She truly cares.
Great, caring professor. Do not slack because although this may be your easiest course all the online work will come back to bite you in the butt... hence my final grade.
ShoCo is amazing! She is super energetic and passionate about what she teaches. She makes the class a lot more enjoyable. The tests and homework are really easy. The tests are all online, open note, and you don't have to go class on test days. I would definitely recommend taking her.
ShoCo, as youll be asked to call her, is an amazing professor. I feel like you have to try to not get an A in her class. She really cares about her students and wants you to succeed. Theres a reason why shes highly rated on here. If you still have to take your healthy life skills class, dont even think about one of the other professors.
Not a difficult class. Finish online assignments on time and thoroughly and you will get an A definitely. Cares so much about students and wants to help them in life.
Shoco was great! Super friendly from the start and makes it known that she is willing to help with any problems her students may have. Her class was genuinely enjoyable. She made it fun.
She goes by ShoCo and she is super cool. She tries to make everyone feel comfortable and to keep everyone interested in her class. She will work with you if you need help in or out of the classroom. She tells lots of fun stories and is super sweet and funny. She made a boring class fun and wants us to succeed in every way we can.
Had her for Fall 2020 and she's handled covid circumstances GRACEFULLY. She is so organized which really really helps with online assignments since thats all we do now. Exams are online which can be used with the notes she provides online (I told you she's organized). She has a few projects but they're all easy. Choose her!
ShoCo is an amazing professor! There is a lot of homework in her class, but it is not difficult, and she is so understanding. She extends deadlines when it is needed, and she is open-minded when it comes to taking tests. She offers extra credit, but participation in class is required. I would highly recommend her!!
Great and caring professor. Emails back fast and is genuinely so nice. The class is easy if you put in a little effort. Take her!!!
She's probably one of the best professors I'll ever have. She's extremely caring and wants her students to succeed both in class and in their personal lives. Initially, I thought I was going to dislike this class because it was required but she easily turned it into one of my favorite classes due to the way she teaches the material. TAKE HER!!!
Prof. Covin is literally the sweetest teacher I have ever had. You can tell how much she cares about teaching. Really easy class just do your work.
She is the sweetest most caring professor I've ever had! As a healthy life skills professor she truly cares about your health and the health of her other students. I loved being in her class!!
Try your hardest to get into Covin's class. Easiest course at UCO. Teacher cares about students and goes out of her way to help any struggling. Modules on the online textbook, lecture notes, open note exams, and a few journal/reflection assignments. If you're taking other heavy courses, this course will be a super easy addition to your schedule.
The sweetest lady ever! you can tell she loves her job and get really happy when her students learn. If you want an easy A I definitely recommend taking professor Covin.
If you get the chance to take Mrs. Covin, don't hesitate and just sign up! Her class is pretty helpful and very easy.
Prof. Covin is amazing. Class is designed to be very easy as long as you do the work. Homework is through the online book and she provides study guides for each chapter which help prep for the test. Very generous when it comes to extra credit and likes to explain each concept in very easy terms.
She is a pretty good professor. I took her for an online class and she was responsive to emails. She gives lots of homework from an expensive textbook but they are auto 100's if you just complete them. She has several writing assignments and discussions you must complete. Easy A if you do the work and follow instructions. Tests were easy
She's the best!! Everyone loves her! Class is super easy but very insightful!
ShoCo is one of the best! She is so sweet and you can genuinely tell she cares for her students. This course was extremely easy, if you do the assignments you make an easy A. She teaches a lot of beneficial topics in this course. Overall, if every professor was like ShoCo, everyone would love college!
She is the nicest person ever and that translates onto her class! You do the homework at your own pace and they take some times. As long as you do the homework the class is an easy A.
the assignments are time consuming but if you stay on top of it youll be fine. ShoCo is the most caring professor I have met. go to class, you get graded after a few absences and they add up fast. this class is easy if you actually do the work, dont blow it off.
ShoCo is a great professor and her class is very laid back. There is a lot of work to be done but it is easy work, and an easy A.
Overall she is an amazing teacher and is very passionate about your overall health and she will let you redo assignments as well! she answers emails very quickly and is so loving to her students. I would take her again in a heartbeat.
the class ever and she was always there to help and gave encouraging feedback
Healthy Life Skills ONLINE The online SmartBooks are ridiculous. There was one with over 180 questions (92 concepts). Make sure you work on the Transformative Learning Project little by little, don't wait til the very end.
ShoCo is one of the best professors I have ever had. She genuinely cares so much about all of her students and is always happy to help you out with anything. All the homework is online and so are the tests. She gives you plenty of time to get all the assignments done before the unit test. Definitely show up for class, it's worth it.
She's so great. Class was also very interesting.
She was amazing! Truly recommend her to anyone!
One of the easiest classes I've ever taken, I loved ShoCo! I was online so I didn't get to interact with her much but you only had one to three assignments a week max, and they weren't difficult. She was easy to reach out to via email. If you're looking for your required health credit at UCO take hers! I recommend online, but then again I'm biased.
Absolutely amazing. all around wonderful person and teacher. Highly recommend taking her for healthy life skills.
Super kind and understanding professor. Attendance is mandatory and there are quite a few online assignments through the text book, but other than that the class is pretty chill
Was a very easy class. uses McGraw-Hill and there is a lost of assignment. I took this class over the summer and it was a block 2 class so only 4 weeks. at least 3 McGraw-hill assignments ranging 25-55 concepts with 1 quiz 50 questions each week. the final was 100 questions. is very easy if you just do the work.
Shoco is the best! Take her class! It's so easy and fun, I really looked forward to her class. All you do is some online work that is super easy, and she is really fun. The lectures fly by!
She was great and the class was super easy. McGraw Hill, so if you don't like that then probably not the best idea, but I loved it. She was super sweet, and I never needed to use her lectures but she records really good and comprehensive videos (like I wouldn't be shocked if they were on YT). She's super sweet and very clear on expectations.
Provides PPT that basically summarize readings. SmartBook assignments through McGraw Hill. The class was so easy. Coursework is light even in a 4-week class. She's super accessible and understanding.
ShoCo is awesome. She really cares about her students, and is always available if you need something. Homework is not difficult especially if you use her guided note sheets. Hardest part was the final project at the end of the year, and that was simply just tedious and long. Great class with a great professor!
1000% would take again Professor Covin made this class amazing to take! Clear expectation a when it comes to assignments and grading. Not a very have course load, and gives oppertunities for make to work. She is very understanding, she will work work you for the most part and genuinely cares about you!
She's super nice and not judgemental. Tests and final are open-note at home. Attendance is mandatory, she'll take points off your grade. Took the final two weeks early and didn't have class the rest of the semester. 15 min of stuff outside of class/week. Bonus points available (up to 5% of grade). Can't not get an A if you submit everything.
TAKE HER!!! easiest A ever. Expects you to be in class and participate in group discussions. Show up and you're good!
Loved her class she's amazing and understanding
If you can, TAKE HER CLASS. I am taking her online version and she is the sweetest, most understanding professor I have ever had. I missed an assignment by three days due to my father being hospitalized and she allowed me to do it with just five points off. Genuinely cares for her students! Best professor!
Very easy class with tons of extra credit opportunities. I would recommend taking this class.
