[Nfb-krafters-korner] classes & membership

[Terry Knox]

Courtney,
I really like your suggestion. Could you possibly place in an outline draft
to be submitted. I am one of those beginner crochet teachers as you know,
but it is difficult teach and reteaching these beginners classes. If we had
the schedules for even two times a year, maybe in the slow months of Jan.
and July that would be good also. I know Dixie submitted a great plan on
keeping up with classes, and submitted it and it was acted on. I think it
was 6 classes each month to keep us on track each year instead of so many in
Dec.. If you could place your ideas into a file and then submitted I believe
it would be addressed.

Also, a student may not learn as well from one instructor as they might from
another instructor & that student would have to only wait three months
before the class would be taught again & not have to wait a year or longer.

This is just something to keep in mind & consider.
