On one of my classes the teacher knew all the students and would discuss other things with them, which was ok since I was paying more attention to my work. The worst part was that she did not use the same supplies as us that were listed on the class supply list. She used a product that was easier, MUCH easier to use but failed to tell us before the class started (and she had weeks). We all struggled. Needless to say, that was the last class I took with her. I am still not sure I will go back to that outfit altogether.
