Quality 5/5Difficulty 2/5
Julia is really nice and easy to understand. If you take a german class, try to get her as she really cares about her students and is easy to talk to and learn from. I thought I would hate having an 8:50 every morning but she made it a lot more bearable. She is a bit of a stickler for attendance though, so try not to be late too much.
