Do you have to talk to people or are they automated?
 
If you take the actual live ones (on the calendar, that you have to register for) they are live - you'll be asked to identify yourself and probably take a few "polls" by pressing numbers on your phone. Different leaders run them differently, and some will randomly call on people from the registration list. They are mostly listening, however.But remember, everyone is there to learn. So nobody will pick on you.
 
Tele Classes are AWESOME!!! Woo-Hoo to Home Office for giving us this amazing learning opportunity!

I take one each week (at the least). The new toll free phone # makes it better for my consultants, also!

Love them!
 
I'm waiting for the MP3 versions so I can take them to the gym with me! :D When do they start converting? I'm getting impatient! LOL

I just took one last night. It was great and you learn alot. It is a live enviroment with instant feedback. My suggestion is to get a headset for your phone as it is an hour long call. It is better IMO with the live people as then you can ask a question if you have one, not an option with recorded sessions. hopefully the mp3 version will be better as I have a hard time listening to the recorded calls they now have.
 
I have always done the recorded ones but the audio isn't that great - I am planning to work in more live ones. Have the schedules printed out already!
