Hi, just a quick note about your check-in meetings.
I'm
doing everything I possibly can to ensure that you are successful in
this course. That includes making myself available to answer questions
and help you get set up. I answer emails from multiple accounts, I host
about 20 Zoom meetings a day, and I am refining things as I go along to
make the experience as rewarding as I possibly can.
Right
now it's 3:48 P.M. Someone scheduled a Zoom with me at 3:30, but they
didn't show up. It was the 4th time that happened today.
I
don't want to make any assumptions, but this messes up my day. Think
about it: if I'm tying up my Zoom account, and not being productive
while I sit and wait, it takes me away from 175 other students (and all
of my other responsibilities).
If you scheduled a
meeting with me in the last couple days, and you had a problem
connecting, will you please comment to this post or send me an email and
let me know what happened? If it's a technical problem, I want to
resolve it so that you and everyone else has an easier time connecting
with me. If it's a problem on your end, well, I want to help fix that
too.
For now, if you schedule with me and we don't
connect within 5 minutes of our scheduled appointment time, I will log
off. Please email me or go back into Calendly to reschedule.
Mahalo.
