With a late arrival I expect the instructor to say I'll catch you up when there is a break. It's not fair to the ones that paid and got there on time to wait for the late person to get caught up. There are legit reasons for being late but none really matter to the others in the room and to expect it would is truly self centered. There are quiet a few well known instructors I have taken classes from before that I won't again due to catering to the one class member who can't seem to do anything and need hand holding at every step. The classes were not beginner classes.
