[Nfb-krafters-korner] Patterns

Greg,
I so, so agree with you. Do you have any suggestions? I have brought up
paying for missed lessons, that did not go. I do understand this is a real
problem and know the new person wants to learn, but I for one do not have
the solution. I know there is no way I could personally give the time to do
one on one lessons. I am glad you helped and very nice of you. Next
question, are you teaching the basis thru the whole thing, and will you have
the time. I do a lot of one on one after the class but I do not have the
time to teach separately. We have talked all around this for a long time, I
would really like a solution or suggestions, I do not want to seem like a
bad person because I just do not have the time to teach one to one. You are
correct, we get new people and then they are gone, I hope this is not the
reason.

I understand your point. But, when a student is ready and wants to learn, if
we tell them sorry you missed it and maybe we'll teach what you need some
day, that student is lost because of a feeling of frustration. It took five
minutes of my time to answer the specific question she posed. This issue
needs to be addressed and solutions sought instead of putting people off. We
tell them we'll help you when it's convenient and then we sit back and
wonder why people come and don't stay or never come in the first place.

Greg,
Glad to hear you are helping her. It is pretty difficult to put together
everything I do to teach weeks of classes and then to try to repeat it from
the beginning for one person.

Hi Terry K. Yes. She and I are talking and she's a much quicker learner than
she thinks.

Greg,
WOW, have not heard much from you lately. Are you going to help with this? I
do not want to confuse any new person and if you are going to help, I will
be silent. Hope she gets help she needs.

The question she had has already been resolved. Those upcoming crochet
classes would have been only frustrating for where she is at right now.

Rena
,

Don't give up yet.  There are folks here that will reach out and help you
thru this craft or any of them.  I think you are anxious to jump on and give
it a try.

We did just have a class.  We don't have any crochet beginners projects
booked in right now, but I will check to see if maybe a class will be coming
up soon.

There are 3 crochet classes planned for June, July & August.

We are booking classes in now end of May, June, July and accepting our
Christmas in August classes.

Hang in there, you just found us and if you have something special you would
like to learn this is the place to bring it up so teachers will start
thinking and searching for a special project.

Thanks, Joyce. I'm honestly just not sure myself anymore. Found some old
crafting supplies at home, but if I can't even understand the basics of a
crochet chain, then I'm not going to do well with any other craft.

Will keep googling anyway though.
