Teacher comment:
This is the second course I’ve been privileged to have Miles a part of. He consistently strives to do his best, whether in his coursework or in his workouts. He is a competitive athlete with an intense schedule and time is tight, which makes it all the more impressive that he makes sure to communicate with me regularly when he has delays or questions. He does a great job staying on pace and submitting quality coursework. I love that he enjoys being active and proactively sets and works towards new fitness and health goals each week. It’s been fun to celebrate his progress and wins with him and I look forward to seeing how much more he can achieve.

Tell us something about you:
In my free time I like to play lacrosse. When I grow up I hope that I can become a professional lacrosse player in the NLL. The reason I’ve chosen to pursue online learning is for my lacrosse schedule this summer.

What have you enjoyed most about your Carone Learning course? 
The thing that I have enjoyed most about Caroline learning is seeing my progress through the weeks. Being able to see how much exercise I’ve done through the week helps me adjust on the fly. And I think that this course has made me a better athlete because of that.

What did their teacher have to say about them?
Justin is a hard worker and has tried diligently throughout the semester to use what he’s learned in the weekly lessons towards his assignments and in his workouts. His reflections and progress checkpoints with his fitness goals show that he’s working hard to apply the principles of strength training and that he’s enjoying the rewards of his hard work. I’m proud of the effort he is putting into finding a routine that works well for him. I greatly appreciate the seriousness and honesty he includes in his assignments and discussion responses; the details show an impressive level of comprehension! He’s done a fantastic job in this course all around this semester and I’m glad for the opportunity to be his instructor.

Tell us something about you?
I like to spend my free time gaming with my friends and baking desserts like chocolate lava cake and chocolate chip cookies. I chose online school because I didn’t want to deal with working out at school and changing in the locker room. It felt like a better fit for me. I originally thought I wanted to major in engineering, but after taking a philosophy class, I’ve started to rethink what I want to study in the future.

What have you enjoyed most about your Carone Learning course? 
I’ve enjoyed being able to exercise on my own time and choose workouts that I find interesting. I feel stronger and have more energy than before. I also really appreciate how engaged my teacher, Ms. Richards, has been – she stays on top of everything and gives a lot of encouragement, which is nice.

Flexibility

What did their teacher have to say about them?
Samara goes above and beyond with her coursework and workouts. I’ve been impressed with her desire to not only maintain her current dance and pilates routines but to go out of her comfort zone to try some new activities and classes, like zumba and boxing. She consistently sets new goals for herself each week and truly puts effort and focus into achieving them, and I am proud of the progress she’s made each week as she’s done so. Based on the content in her assignments, I can tell Samara is taking the information she’s learning in the lessons to heart and is using it to make positive changes in her health habits. She’s been a wonderful student and works hard in all that she does. Great job, Samara!

Tova has consistently stayed on top of her coursework, despite going to school during the day, working some evenings during the week, and maintaining a regular weekly workout routine. I appreciate that she does all this while also keeping up regular communication to let me know what is going on with her schedule, or reaching out when she has questions. Tova works hard during her workouts to maximize the benefits from them and is seeing the benefits in her day-to-day life. I am proud of the hard work she’s putting in and the progress she’s made this semester!

Tell us something about you!
I like to walk every day and get my exercises in, I also like to do general stuff like spending time with family and helping as much as I can and playing games. I hope to be a fit and physically strong man later on in life, always going to the gym and being skilled too.

What have you enjoyed most about your Carone Learning course? I have really loved being able to exercise each and every day, being able to have a certain amount of time to exercise each day and just being reminded to exercise every day. It was the motivation I needed (and maybe for a grade too) but when there is a grade or something like that then I get working on the self-direction and the perseverance!

Allison has worked very hard this term, and has consistently submitted quality work. She is continually setting new weekly fitness goals and truly making an effort to work on them. She put her mind to creating a routine and schedule that works well for her and that keeps her accountable, overcoming the struggle to find motivation sometimes. She’s made amazing progress over the semester and hopefully will continue with her routines after the course has ended!

Tell us something about you!
I would like to pursue a career in healthcare. Specifically a career in cardiothoracic surgery, performing surgery on all organs and systems in the thoracic cavity. Sometimes when I am bored I will suture cuts on a silicone pad that I received for my birthday.

How will this course help you improve your fitness level? This course has helped me improve my fitness level immensely. I was guided about proper form, warm up and cool downs, as well as listening to my body more intuitively. I have found myself being more motivated to workout even outside of online class, as well as enjoying workouts more.
