I agree with all of the above. As far as the phone - silence it, unless you are expecting an important call. If that is the case, try to arrange to be near the exit should you need to take a call - and keep it brief. The class shouldn't have to wait for your return, or for the instructor to reteach what you missed.

It's really hard to focus on the teacher when you feel like you're having trouble breathing!

One time two students brought their new machines still in the box to a machine quilting class. Another brought sn off brand machine her husband had bought her for their cabin. She didn't know how to use it. Teachers are not sewing machine mechanics or machine troubleshooters.

on the paying attention I would clarify that when the instructor is talking to the whole class about the next direction or a tip--stop and listen! Seems there are always those that keep plowing ahead with their sewing, or cutting and then want individual attention because they didn't listen.
