Sandra,

Are you available in the afternoons or evenings?  Would you attend a
telephone class if there was a phone number for your country?  What country
do you live in?



This is going to take some coordination  and I need to research what
countries have a local call in number  So we would Like this information and
you can send it to me off list at
Blindhands at AOL.com

I'm in Europe and we're 5 hours ahead of Eastern time. Weekends would work
best if it was going to be late at night my time,  to suit Eastern time
classes.

Very best wishes,
Sandra.
