Wow, our latest survey has garnered a lot of attention and responses! Thank you so much to everyone so far who has answered and helped us out with determining some of our future. Here’s what people are saying so far:
Overwhelming response- you would love to take a LIVE online class in the presence of your teacher
You think there should be downloadable reference materials like pdfs, instructions, and supply lists
There are many responses concerned with the timeframe- young children at home, different time zones, etc. make you concerned that you might not be able to make it at the set time
You want continued support and access to class materials so you can try it out.
So, here are my thoughts…We have already decided that the course will not be a “one-shot-deal,” there will be a private forum where you can upload photos, have conversations, and ask questions so you DO learn. We have the ability to save the video feed and post it for you to peruse later at a more leisurely pace, repeating the parts you missed or that weren’t clear. I also believe we will offer the courses at more than one price point- full access, live with your teacher, and then for those who can’t make it, a different price for access to the recordings and class materials. Online courses are great, but we’ve felt that without the presence of the teacher and the ability to have YOUR questions answered and your issues demonstrated on the spot can be a problem, especially for those who like to SEE to learn. Stay tuned, and answer the survey in your inbox if you haven’t already. We will be picking a prize winner at the end of the week!
