Comment:

By far my favorite professor of all time!!!! I loved every one of her classes, she engaged so well with the students, she really cared about her career and each student. She made learning enjoyable and she is very knowledgeable. If you're reading this, Professor - THANK YOU!!!! (and this recommendation is submitted 12 years after I graduated!)

By far one of Dordt's most valueable and loved profs (even though her classes are SOOO much work)! Always a challenge, but in a good way. Thanks!!

Comment:

Great person, but I found her teaching skills were lacking when it came down to teach art. Too much focus was on tech. and detail rather then learning how to observe an object/what to see/how to transfer that on paper, when most of the students had never touched a pencil before. Her figure drawing advice didn't help at all.

You can get sick of this class very easily, but Professor Van Geest is the best Art Professor that Dordt has!

Lots of zest! (She's pregnant by the way!) And mostly helpful. Her classes can get a little overbearing at times though.
