What are the students thinking???

As each 12 day class ends I send an evaluation to each student so I am able to learn what's going well and areas that should change....Students have given me great ideas/information that's impacted the format, information load and overall feel of the class.

This information is what one of the students provided, and agreed to allow me to publish this Information so it can help others evaluate whether this class is right for them.

**Please tell me about your experience:

It was a great experience!  I really didn't know what to expect but I felt that you did a great job helping me learn the basics of flower prep and how important that is.  I loved working with so many flowers and the varieties.  Going to the wholesalers was awesome!

**Did the class hit the mark for you?  Did it miss the mark?

Yes the class exposed me to the information and flower knowledge which I appreciate so much.  You are an excellent teach, very patient and helpful feedback.

**Did the cost of class= the value?

Yes

**What was the best day of class for you??

Maybe the las day-wedding and centerpieces.  I really liked some of the ones I created.  I think I "got it"(somewhat).

**What was the most challenging day of class?

The 2-3 days, just frustrating to see you create quickly and then there was so much to remember...the right tools, the solutions, the principals of design, probably the most challenging was remembering the names of flowers.  Perhaps have the students make signs to put on the buckets so names are visible.  Perhaps you could slow down just a little for note taking.

Also I did like the start & end times, maybe cut lunch back to 45 min. & end a little earlier.  Just a thoughtI also appreciate the fact that you know the industry and people so well, and that you are willing to help us with employment if you can.  Thank You!

I also appreciate that your class size was small.  I enjoyed being with only one other person.  You gave personalized attention and immediate feedback!

**Your review of the class:

Christina's Flower Classroom course is an amazing hands on experience.  Her knowledge is extensive and her expertise in the flower world is widely known.  The reason I took her course is that the floral owner who recommended her said" I would hire anyone who has taken her course".  "She's awesome!"
