ART 224
Quality 3/5Difficulty 2/5
Gerit is a super fun person to be around, but she doesn't offer much support or feedback and expects you to be very independent. She also can be self-involved at times, which bleeds into class (but sometimes makes for funny moments).

Gerit is unfiltered and hilarious. Just show up to her class, try your best, and you will learn a lot.
