davis_squarenothing against the previous poster; but I'm wondering where all of the area's *cheap* classes are. I've seen writing classes for $400, music for $150 an hour, even 90m over at the Cambridge School for Culinary Arts costs $100.
When I lived in Toronto, I did a full day class in tofu making for $5. The local adult education schools were $50 (canadian, when it was worth 80 US cents), for 6 week classes. I myself taught free classes in computer literacy.
Now, it's not that I don't believe the classes exist. I'm sure they do, and there are places where they can be taken. But I just keep not seeing or hearing about them. So what are your favourite resources for people who can't afford classes that cost more per hourthan they themselves earn?

Still, it is some money up front.
but, for example, a foreign language class, at $129, works out to about $6/hr for instruction.
