Sirena, I apologize if you took my comments in the wrong way, they weren't 
meant to hurt or insult you in any way.

Plain English

Okay, before I get jumped on any more for not knowing these terms, my
mobile service charges me for calling into the class line, and right
now, I can't afford the extra charges. This is something I explained
to Henry, so this is not a case of me just shirking classes, and
before making comments such as, 'All this was covered,' like it's a
huge hardship to go over it again, it might do well to understand the
circumstances. I was also not here a few months ago for Courtney's
classes.

My apologies for bothering the list with newbie questions.
