    The instructor was very knowledgeable and quite funny. He addressed all of our questions and had great aspirational examples that he brought to class. The information was delivered well and I really enjoyed how the class was set up: informational lecture first, lab second. There was also an assistant that helped the class flow well. This class helped me identify why I haven't had any successful bonsai attempts in the past and I feel better equipped to maintain the tree I brought home from class, as well as create new bonsai. I'll be looking for the advanced class after some more "experiments."

    Enjoyed "Bonsai for Beginners" class! I found the class to be informative, gave me a better concept of understanding the needs and conditions required for plant care. I appreciate the knowledge of the instructor and his quality of teaching. Thank you.

    Truly engaging. I learned a little history, a little science, a little math, a little of everything- a great art that I will take with forever. Thank you for offering this class.
