These online classes seem like a good idea, but how would it be different than watching a video tutorial at one's own pace? The main advantage is being able to communicate directly with the instructor, I understand, but is it going to be worth $750-1000?
I doubt you'll have any trouble finding willing participants, since the internet is worldwide, and I've often thought of looking for online classes, and I've looked. The tutorials themselves have been the most useful tool to me in learning how to do things.
If I were to sign up, I'd like to know exactly what is going to be taught to see if the classes are things I already know or far beyond what I know.
Let me just say that the notion is very exciting, but as someone with monetary limits I'd want to know a whole lot more before I signed up.
