[Nfb-krafters-korner] My Opinion, Oh Well

Tue Mar 21 13:31:33 UTC 2017

That is so true, Cindy.  We have also had a few Saturday classes.  I do not think very many people like that time.  There have been classes held during the day and also during the evening.  Terry K has done some of these.  There have been attempts to accomidate those outside of the US!
I work a full day, so do not have as much flexibility as those who are retired!
What kind of things would you like to learn?  I have about run out of ideas.

Terry P.

Well, our Australian folks are something like a twelve or so hour difference. Would you be able to be at an 8 am class if you worked or had kids to get off to school? Lindy, in South Africa has actually made the effort to attend a few Monday Night Chats and I think her time is a few hours off of that difference so it is the wee hours of the morning. She is a great teacher and offers classes by email so that we can all participate in her classes.

Henry,
Well stated. I do not know what exactly the problem with out of country members. I am not certain it is time difference or other things. Sorry at the present time, I am way to busy to take on this problem, and do not know where to every begin.

I agree with the 2 Terrys and Mariann.
I feel badly that the people from the U K are being shut out of the classes.

I'd like to see something done so that they can participate as wel, I like both phone and E Mail classes too.

I do not think the classes will go, all e-mail.  Live classes are good for short and or simple projects while e-mail classes are good for complex items.  Some like e-mail, especially if they live outside of the US.  Some like to be able to hear the voices of others and ask questions of others. 
Some like both, like me!

Maryanne,
Thank you for your response. This is an issue that we have tossed about for many years. It is something I would like the Board to make a firm, straight decision on and make it easy for each of us to know. Should we record or not

and how to handle it. That really is for the Board.

Terry, I agree with you. I wish there was a way the classes could be recorded and made available so people who could not attend the class itself could still sign up. I know there are some evenings that I am busy and we have people in different parts of the world that make it difficult for them to participate in the phone classes.
