Round here (south London) it's about how much the venue costs to hire more than the teaching. You can easily pay �70 plus for one term.
One of my local lace groups is about �50 a year for one meeting a month simply due to the cost of the venue. Whenever I teach privately I always say that I'll do it for the cost of the petrol, a peppermint tea and good company - so if you can get a few of you to learn then it brings the cost down. This means that if you want to have only a lesson a month then it costs less - the more lessons a month - say weekly or fortnightly then you pay to get me there. Mind you - I've always ended up dropping a couple of my students off on the way home too so I'm probably a good buy as a teacher <grin> In a message dated 29/08/2003 22:36:06 GMT Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: > <Fee is right > (depending on age $10.00 or $20.00 for the younger under 50 crowd- sometimes > it pays to be older).> > > Is that typical of the cost of lacemaking classes run by school districts in > the > adult education department? > > Through adult education, I've got a choice of a 2 hour x 24 week class in > Poole for 120 pounds (190 dollars), but 84 pounds (132 dollars) for women > over 60 (men over 65), or 24 weeks in Bournemouth split into 2 lots of 12 > for payment, total for 24 weeks 110 pounds (173 dollars) or 55 pounds (86 > dollars)for seniors.
