Question from Anonymous

Hi - I would be out of the country and miss the first session. How crucial is it to attend all session? (Understand there is no refund etc. but would miss the first session impact the later experience by a lot?)

Answer from Brenda L. CourseHorse Staff

Hi there! It is highly recommended to attend the first course of a 10-week session, but not crucial or mandatory. Students are welcome to reach out directly to their instructor (contact information they can find when they log into their TBG account) to find out what they missed in class. Students will not be allowed to move on to the next level if they miss more than three classes in a 10-week session. Hope this helps!

Answer

Question from Mathew G.

I would very much like to take this class, however, there are two consecutive sessions for which I will be out of the country working on a project. Depending on which start date I choose, the weeks I would miss could change, but no matter how I try to divide it, they all seem like important sessions. Would you still accept me in the class if I had to miss two sessions?

Answer from Brenda L. CourseHorse Staff

Hi Mathew! The school has a strict no make-up or credits for missed classes policy. It would be best that you join the class where you can make it to the 10 sessions.

Answer

I'm not an aspiring actor but I do a fair amount of public speaking and want to develop the spontaneity and responsiveness on stage as described in the class outline. Is this the best fit?

Answer from Robert S.

This class offers weekly opportunities to get up in front of an audience, building your public speaking skills and spontaneity with written material. It's a great fit! -The Barrow Group School
