FAQs
I
am not in a group yet. What do I do?
Send me an email and let me know. If you registered very recently for the class, try to find others in the class who are in groups already and see if you can be added on to a group.
When
do the web casts get online?
The tapes are usually available about 20 minutes after the class is done, assuming I stay on top of things.
Do
I need to read all your emails? (They are getting a little tiresome)
I know that you are busy and do not always read your emails. I am putting the emails on the web, chronologically arranged. That way, if you do miss a bunch of emails, you can go back and find them.
