Excellent, very detailed and Alice was very knowledgeable. She answered all the learners questions patiently and with great enthusiasm. We enjoyed the range of what the lecture covered and also the references to her past experiences. The content was impressive but not too overwhelming either. The delivery was very informative, Alice is a great speaker and her enthusiasm for cat behaviour is evident from the beginning. She is funny and this makes the lecture very engaging to listen to. She is extremely knowledgeable and the learners really enjoyed the fact that they could ask questions and did not feel rushed. The lecture has healed my learners as they have skills demonstrations and projects revolving around feline behaviour and body language. The lecture has helped set the foundation for the next classes I will be teaching and we regularly refer back to Alice's lecture in class as we have discussed feline behaviour.
