Intro to Radio Podcasting
Dear Sir or Madam, I am very disappointed. I did not actually have an experience. I showed for class on the first day early only to be told that the class was not at the listed address(Brooklyn Library, Main Branch). I was at the New Lots branch. I had to get on another train and ride 25 minutes. I commuted from New Jersey, by the way. So I get to the New Lots location and the instructor ask to see my confirmation. I show him and he informs me that although my confirmation stated that I was enrolled and that the class was free, the class is actually $50. That wasn't the biggest issue. He then tells me that I have to leave because I am not a Brooklyn resident. I really would like to be placed in another class for podcasting to compensate me for my time and energy.

Jewelry Making
I was clumsy with the wire and cutting at first, but with Ms. Alicia's patient and friendly manner of teaching, and giving us individual attention, that soon went away. I left with a beautiful chain (MY creation, effort and energy!) and showed it off at work on Monday. Looking forward to another class with Ms. Alicia. Thank you. -
