Comment:
I'm a good student, I make all A's and was failing Steve's class the entire semester. Having no reference materials for notes besides the pricey textbook and his hard to understand lectures I approached him asking for help and was told in return that I am obviously not trying hard enough. Shows no compassion if you are anything less than perfect.

This is the most ridiculous class at TState. Between not being able to understand him, not being able to decipher his wording on test or the syllabus, and not getting any help or feedback from his TA's or himself, you can study and go to his office all you want, you most likely will barley pass and still learn nothing. Worst prof. at TState.

I have had Steve for 4 different classes and made a C to an A in those. He makes you learn the material and think deeper on the subject matter. If you don't then you won't make a great grade. He gives good feedback, very respectful, clearly states the expectations for the classes, has pop quizzes almost every class overall readings & lecture.

Comment:
I don't know how this professor got good reviews. It makes no sense to me that people thought he was a quality professor because he is the worst I've had at TXST. His teaching style is so hard to follow and completely different from any other professor that is so hard to know what's expected. Even if you study you could get a C and learn nothing.

This man is very confusing, it's unfortunate that he is the only one that teaches 3351. The Worst Professor at Texas State. Students struggle with his teaching style. He really needs to be replaced. Don't expect an B, more likely lower.

Dr. Awoniyi will insist on getting the best from you. Attend class, participate and show you care about your education and you will be fine.

Very very smart man. Most students do not like him because of his strict rules & attendance policy. Attendance is mandatory. Quizzes every week but if you do your reading, you will be just fine! He is a really sweet man. Just participate in class and show him that you care about the class.

Comment:
You only have the final as your test in the class, which was extremely stressful considering you hardly know what in the world is going on in the class ever. Although Awoniyi is funny, it doesn't compensate for his soft-spokenness and he has trouble relaying his thoughts (however smart he is) into layman's terms, which shows on his weekly quizzes.

Though this professor is very brilliant yet does not understand that others do not have his intelligence. You are teaching yourself most of the material since tends to go off topic the majority of class time. He is willing to help but normally just confuses the students more. Biggest issue is the awkward wording of test questions

Steve isn't always clear even though he thinks he is. I had him for two classes and his quizzes are ones that make you second guess yourself and you'll probably be wrong. Good news is if you have a test at the end it will probably be just like all of the quizzes.

His class is really hard but if you study for each quiz and pay attention you will do fine. He is kind of hard to understand and sometimes goes off topic for 30 minutes. He has quizzes every week so you have to keep up with your readings. He is overall a pretty good professor, just very dry.

Smart man, but speaks with accent, very soft spoken at times and can speak quickly as well. Difficult to understand at times and you spend a lot of time reading. Basically teaching yourself the information.

Steve's presence in the Department of Health and Human Performance is absolutely requisite. He provides a vantage and approach to our field not held by other faculty members that is necessary for a holistic understanding of the study of Rec & Leisure. Steve holds everyone to the same (high) standard. He is very kind, deliberate and focused.

I had this guy for another course and just starting another course with him. Like the other people posted, he is a nice guy but I am not here for that but rather to learn something which I didn't do in his last class and it doesn't seem like I will in this class. The guy is EXTREMELY boring but you have to take the class if a major. Ugh!
