Teleclass Etiquette
There is a protocal for attending teleclasses. Keep these guidelines in mind:
- Go to a quiet room to make the call. Ask others not to disturb you.
- Do not use a cell phone, mobile phone or speaker phone. These interfere with the quality for the rest of the callers.
- Disable call waiting by dialing *70, then dial the number for the class.
- Call in at the top of the hour.
- Do not call in early (another class may be finishing up).
- Listen before speaking.
- The teleclass leader will invite you to join in.
- Introduce yourself by giving your name and where you are from.
- If you join the class late, do not announce your arrival. They already know you are there, a short beep sounded when you came on the line.
- Always say your name before sharing or asking a question.
- Some leaders will ask you to press the #5 key before speaking. If they do, wait until they acknowledge you before speaking.
- Use your mute button if someone walks into the room during the class. These lines are very sensitive and your conversation will interrupt.
- Same for dogs/kids.
- Be very careful about heavy breathing. Sound is magnified on these calls. Hold the mouthpiece away from your mouth unless talking.
- Plan to stay for the full hour.
- If an emergency comes up, do not announce your departure. A short beep will sound when you hang up.
- At the end of the class, some teleclass leaders may ask everyone what they got from the class.
- It is considered rude to leave during this period.
- Take lots of notes, participate and have fun!
