Make up a list of questions to take with you and keep it handy during class - possibly even a notebook with each question on a single page. You could then take notes specific to those questions if they are addressed during the class or you will then have them all handy at the end to discuss with the instructor one-on-one if that option is available to you.
I AGREE with what NJ Quilter said. Remember how to take notes. I took a machine quilting class from Harriet Hargrave and even being a more advance quilter than the others, I was amazed at how much I learned from her class. A teacher would always prefer to answer questions at the end of the class. Also in my experience in teaching, I watch when many quilting groups grew out of these quilters enjoying the company of the classmates. So be sure to have fun !!
