I had my first lesson on DV ever today, and the teacher had some awesome stuff to say.
The problem? A lot of the class members (almost all of them) had a lot of useless rubbish to say.
These guys do these lessons out of their own free time and good will, no pay, nothing. They genuinely want to teach us. Do them a Cavour, and shut up.
Seriously, don't ruin the lessons for those who enrolled for a reason.
Hear, hear.
Yeah, I think there were too many questions asked not directly related to what Percy was currently explaining. Maybe in the next session the room can be setup so only Percy can talk, and then he can talk uninterrupted, and then set the room back to where people can ask questions after he's finished explaining something.
Yeah. It got a little out of the way! It went too off-topic a few times. Class #2 and #3 specially are the most important and long ones, so we cannot afford interruptions or it will take forever and information will be lost!
So, lets hope next class do not go wild or I will need to kick people out (However, hopefully I can get access to Dreambot and make it allow the +m mode.
With all due respect, +m will make it harder to ask questions. I already talked to you in PM, and I am sure everyone else is going to shut up next time as well. I would suggest that you make it so you CAN use +m, but only use it if it actually becomes a problem againQuote:

Most classes the teacher only allows questions at certain times. When we have done that the classes seemed to run much smoother. Perhaps we will put something like this in place next class.
Yes. I allow it as long is 2 or 3 questions. This has been always the same way. One of my previous classes, students had a lot of questions (which is great) but they waited until the end of the lesson or the specific technique I am teaching (chest technique, beach tech, etc...) That way goes smoother.
I created the Q&A thread, so they can be posted there and I will reply to them, so everybody will have more materials to study from :)
Then how about we do that "questions only at designated times", then?
If it is 1-2 questions, then no, but if its more, then yes. You can write them down and ask later. Otherwise, the classes take for ever, and the next two classes are going to have a LOT of material to go through.
And just try to stay on topic. This /me passes ______ a note stuff is not acceptable.
I agree, but it would be nice if some of our RELATED questions would be answered. I felt that the Professor answered a certain student's answers all the time. I won't name who...
Then, what is this for?

I am sorry if I did not reply your questions, I got flooded and interrupted several times that my focus decreased dramatically. I am even sure I missed to share some stuff... But I do not worry as 1st class is not as important. This is why I say I shall not be interrupted with spam on classes 2, 3 and 4 (specially 2 and 3) If I miss to teach some things. from specially the second class, the technique would not be completed and would not work with its full power. I did not even knew who asked what or when... There was so many unnecessary messages that I replied questions at random.
NoDaniel: I feel bad energy coming from your message. I want to remind you that I am doing this for the shake of helping you guys out. I am pretty successful my self so I do not earn nothing from this. I am doing this entirely voluntary. Yesterday's class should have ended at around 08:30 PM. My wife was waiting to have dinner with me and have some time together during the evening. Class ended almost al 10:00 PM because all the interruptions. I always have a Q&A moment after each class... but with so many interruptions we also needed to skip that.
I recall stating that I was not going to answer all the questions to respect other student's and my time. Did you posted your questions on that thread? If you did, I am sure I replied, as I left no question without a response.
I please ask you to not question my ability to teach or handle the class. My only fault was not kicking people from the room. I am a extremely patient and gentle guy, but no people want to have me as an enemy, specially if I have the resources to handle any situation...
Agree with the last post PercyLucid.
If enough people want it I'll make a document of just your words. I'd be happy to do this for all four classes. :)
Thank you for creating this thread Jake but I'm closing it before a flamewar breaks out in here. I think we have come up with a good solution to the spam problem.
Thanks. And this will end the chat. Thanks for the support and please, allow me to run the next classes more smoothly.
