Because the constant refrain here and other on-line places is "nothing matters, there aren't any rules, do it your way, there is no wrong way"

youtube and blog tutorials have made huge inroads in any kind of formal learning classes. Free and always convenient

It isn't up to us if points get cut off, but I so seldom see any real encouragement for learning the basic fundamentals for sewing anything.

Do you ask the students you've had to fill out a little feedback form and give it to the shop owner?
Can you call past students and say you are working to update classes and what they would like to see?
Is there a feedback form at the counter asking for this type of on-going input?

Any business worth beans knows the compliments are wonderful, bring them on, but addressing the complaints is the business builder
