hi anon there are already 2-3 posts about maam but let me paste my thoughts again! haha pass on maam rosalinda kimpo took her for gymnastics (stretching) her niceness is exaggerated in other posts because overall she's really passive-aggressive. she HATES switching modality, even if she's the only class most of the people have that day. so if there's a typhoon or transport strike (and classes arent suspended by ateneo) u will have class 😂 if it's suspended due to a typhoon and strike, she will require you to submit a video. we also spent half the semester memorizing a zumba dance and then making our own 😃😃😃. we only really started stretching and doing gymnastics related things towards the END of the sem. she is super harsh when it comes to grading. OA FOR A PE PROF LIKE 😭😭😭⁉️⁉️⁉️ every step u get wrong in her 100 step zumba routine will automatically give you a minus 1 and it's only out of 10 🤠🤠🤠 anyways, ive had pe profs that were so much more understanding. i wld not recommend maam 😃💔 but if ure into memorizing and all then go for it igmore

Hiii, I had Miss Kimpo for Ballroom Dancing and I can say she’s a rly good prof! We learned a total of 4 different dances throughout the whole sem. I can say her class is fun but ur for sure gonna get a workout every class. Grading: in our practicals it was -1 per mistake but sometimes she lets some mistakes slide naman. She’s also a little particular whether you are on beat or not with the music, so practicing with musics with different tempos are a must since the music is different for every pair during the practicals. How it worked for us when picking out our partners was during our first practical we were paired randomly, the last 3 practicals we got to pick our partner, and during the finals the partner and dance were bunutan. Teaching style: Miss is very accommodating to clarify any questions you may have about the dance. Just make sure to voice out your concerns because if not Miss will just immediately move onto the next step. Personality wise: Miss is a super sweet and understanding person. She’s kind of like an active lola (she’s 82 and is super active and dances better than everyone in the class). During rehearsals she also immediately points out your mistake if she sees it, even if it’s a small detail lang. Overall, you’re in good hands! I found the class super fun but I was always super sweaty after 😅. She also gives the session before the practical to rehearse the whole routine(as in you’ll just keep dancing non stop for the whole period-) but yes super enjoyed it and as long as you’re willing to learn and put in the effort you’ll do great!more

Took her for tap dance, but I can vouch for Ma’am! She is so inspirational honestly. She is almost 80 (I don’t know her age exactly but it’s above 70 iirc) but dances better than me. Grading: Every mistake is a -1 but you can get away with some mistakes if she weren’t able to catch it. I thought I’d get a C+ because I only perfected like one dance routine, but I got an A so I think she is more lenient in grading. Teaching Style: Active grandma vibes cause she is! She always answers questions and repeat steps if must. Personality: Very approachable, don’t be shy or anything. She is also very accommodating. You can plead to move dance performance deadlines with her but don’t abuse!more

have taken her for ballroom and tbh idk why older reviews on her are so good, it’s the most unpleasant PE i’ve ever had. she’s *nice* overall but passive-aggressive at times. the type to demo something once and move on even if a majority of the class clearly didn’t get it. fully onsite also, only held asynch classes because of emergencies (but she’d still require video submissions) - not considerate when it comes to shifting modalities. nitpicky when it comes to grading. if you’re confident at keeping up, memorizing, and being able to attend every session, i guess you could take her. would not recommend if you’d rather have a more relaxed class.more

ALSO AGREE WITH ANON MEMBERS 990 AND 263 I took her for tap dance and it was the most unpleasant PE I’ve ever had to take. She’s very passive aggressive and will only show you the steps once or twice but expect you to memorize it on the spot. She grades very low and will ask some students to repeat. I’ve heard stories of her yelling at the class before us too (?). What annoyed me the most was when I asked her if she could provide at least a list of the steps on canvas or a demo, she said we should make a demo ourselves… Best advice I can give you is have a student who’s injured or can’t participate that day to take note of all of the steps for everyone. You can also voice record the last few minutes of the session when the class is doing the whole routine too because she’ll call out the steps and you can transcribe it later on.more

strongly agree w anon 990 took her for gymnastics (stretching) her niceness is exaggerated in these comments because overall she's really passive-aggressive. she HATES switching modality, even if she's the only class most of the people have that day. so if there's a typhoon or transport strike (and classes arent suspended by ateneo) u will have class 😂 if it's suspended due to a typhoon and strike, she will require you to submit a video. we also spent half the semester memorizing her zumba dance and then making our own 😃😃😃. we only really started stretching and doing gymnastics related things towards the END of the sem. she is super harsh when it comes to grading.
