May 9 2009 - Easily understood information provided by instructor. Very attentive to questions from class. Great workbook.
May 7 2009 - lots of extra tidbits of information to get us started. Thanks
May 7 2009 - It was a very informative class, and the instructor was very knowledgeable.
May 7 2009 - Great information. Looking forward to using to both buy and sell. Feel very confident after taking class.
May 7 2009 - Jack Walters was an excellent instructor. I would highly recommend this class to anyone who has an interest in buying or selling on eBay.
Mar 27 2009 - Outstanding instruction from Jack Walters
Mar 14 2009 - I expected this class to be hands on and it wasn't at all, even though the instructor says it would be hard to do, I disagree. I been to ebay classes before where they were hands on with no problems at all and this class was also at a school where school computers were used.
Feb 6 2009 - I had hoped we would have had some practical applications, like actually going on ebay and selling something.
Feb 6 2009 - he made course very informive and enjoyable
Feb 6 2009 - I think I understood what Jack W. said but at 83 I'm not sure I can do it, but I know I can call Jack if needed.
Feb 5 2009 - Regardless of past practice/attempts by eBay staff:A) This class should be taught in an internet connected computer lab. With planning and practice, the instructor just asks the students to turn off the monitor when he/she wants students to watch/listen directly to the instructor. Another technique to keep the students on task would be to teach from the rear of the lab to see all the monitors being used. B) Watching a blurry projection screen every week is unacceptable, both for the instructor and the students. Get the college to figure it out or buy a new projector on eBay! I have taught classes at LCCC and the tech boys have always helped me out when needed. My wife still teaches at LCCC and has never had an issue with tech help. C)Refrain from jokes about educators...
Oct 28 2008 - Again, Jack was great. Funny, friendly, willing to ask any and all questions. Its too bad people like him cant teach other courses that I had to take in the past!!!
Oct 25 2008 - I enjoy the class very much, and the Instructor was very good.
Oct 16 2008 - Jack made the class alot of fun as well as educational

Sep 28 2008 - Our instructor was Jack Walters. He did an excellent job of presenting the material and answering our questions. He was exceedingly patient and thoughtful. He really created excitement in the class. I do believe we are ready to sell on eBay!
Sep 28 2008 - Would have really liked some actual demos: list something on line with E-Bay; demo how to take camera photo and load it into folder and then upload to E-Bay. More in-class demos would be nice! However, this course was very helpful and so was Mr. Walters!!!
Sep 26 2008 - Jack was an excellent instructor; patient, concise, punctual. The only addition that would be helpful is if we could actually have a working computer to log onto Ebay and practice buying.
Aug 21 2008 - Jack Walter made it easy to understand the many facets of selling on e-bay. I don't know how people do this without professional guidance. Thanks

The instruction was sufficient to set up accounts with ebay and PayPal and start selling, even for the novice.

Mar 7 2008 - Excellent class,visuals, and instruction
Mar 6 2008 - Completely overwhelmed!! Sounded easy in class until I went to do it. It didn't help that our hard drive crashed in the middle of the course.
Feb 27 2008 - The instructor is very knowledgeable. He is very willing to share his expertise with the class. He answered all our questions. The tips he gave will save me a lot of time and money and will more than pay for the class.
Feb 19 2008 - It would have been nice to have a computer hooked up and have a real time demonstration of setting up accounts etc. on line. The slide presentation was just an overview of the textbook.
Feb 17 2008 - Fun class. I learned alot. Jack was a great teacher, very upbeat! Thank You
Feb 17 2008 - I think it would have been more effective if there was a live computer projection showing us real websites.

Feb 15 2008 - Great class learned enough to start being a E-bay junkie.
Feb 15 2008 - enjoyed class signed up for E-bay 2
Feb 14 2008 - The class was very interesting. Too much material to cover in three sessions for those who have little or no knowledge about the subject matter. Although, the instructor did a magnificent joy of keeping my attention.
Jan 10 2008 - I really enjoyed the class,and wish it could have been longer.
Nov 28 2007 - I learned alot in the class and am excited about attending the advanced class in January. Our instructer was very good at explaining and offering solutions for possible problems.
Nov 27 2007 - Very helpful
Oct 31 2007 - Need to make the Figures in the book larger, and easy to read. More color is needed. Information is outstanding. Thanks
Oct 30 2007 - I found the class very interesting. The instructor was very good in keeping the class's attention. One of the best classes I have taken through GM. Can't wait to get started doing ebay
Oct 9 2007 - The slides were hard to see.. The workbook should have been given out in the first class not the 2nd.. the print on some of the pages in the workbook are to small to read
Oct 9 2007 - It would have been very helpful if we had received the workbook the first night of class so that we could review what we learned in class the first night.
Oct 7 2007 - I am very happy that I took the class. I knew little about ebay and wanted to give it a try. I was looking for a way to supplement my income, but had no idea of the potential that exists with ebay. Jack Walters was very knowledgeable and helpful in answering all our questions. I just wish we would have been able to have the books by the first class so that we could review the information covered, in case we had further questions. Also, I wish there were more opportunities to take the advanced course, as I won't have enough ebay experience before it is scheduled to start.
Oct 4 2007 - excellent class

Nov 4 2006 - Very nice, patient, and informative instructor. I now have the confidence to try to sell my "treasures" on ebay!
Sep 19 2006 - Some of the pages in the book did not follow exactly from the slides, but I could follow it. My instructor, Jack Walters is excellent and it was a delight to work with him! He is an inspiration. I already downloaded Turbo Lister when I got home.
Aug 28 2006 - Mr. Walters was extremely knowledgeabe about e-bay and electric trains, which I want to sell when I set up my e-bay store. I am very satisified.
Jun 20 2006 - Ihave read books and researched selling on Ebay in many different ways and still needed something to get a fire going under me. This class provided just that. Jack Walters was a fountain of useful information. As a novice, he provided information to jump start me on my way to being an experienced seller. Ebay should provide a quick link to qualified people like Jack Walters.
May 26 2006 - The class was very helpful. Jack was the best. I learned alot and had alot of my questions answered. Feel much more confident about becomeing a Power Seller!
May 23 2006 - Jack Walters did an excellent job at providing us with relevant information in a clear and easy to understand way. Great feedback to questions - all questions answered clearly. Jack is very knowledgeable and professional. I am completely satisfied with the class.
Apr 19 2006 - Friendly and easy class.I'm happy to understand this wonderful world of Ebay and my instructor he give me the right encouragement to start my Ebay store. The book I received from him it looks like a easy step-by-step to make everything I need to have a successful business :)) Thanks Jack !!
Apr 12 2006 - Hi, Jack Walters went above and beyond my expectations. I cannot tell you how much he taught me and the way he teaches you is unbelieveable. He not only shows you where to find the tools to help boost your ebay business but he shows you how to use them, he makes you feel very at ease and not rushed. He answered every one of my questions with so much information that I was amazed. I could go on and on but to some it up, Jack, I can't thank you enough for everything you did for me today, I will never forget you, Thank You and GodSpeed, Chuck Pallai
Apr 8 2006 - The instructor was able to answer any question.
Apr 8 2006 - The Instructor was up-to-date and thorough on all of the material. For the class, I would have liked to have hands-on experience, as I learn better that way.
Apr 8 2006 - The class was excellent. Mr. Walters will open you eyes to ebay and auctioning. I would highly recommend this class if you have any interest in ebay.
Mar 2 2006 - Jack Walters presented "Basics of Selling" in an organized, understndable, and knowledgeable manner. I appreciate that he answered ALL questions. Also, I appreciate his 'willngness to engage' me so that I can sell and purchase on e-Bay. I will inform all I know about this class and other classes eBay offers. I thank eBay and Jack Walters for offering this class.
Mar 2 2006 - Excellent class. I learned so much and Jack was very helpful and gave us many good ideas. He answered questions to the students satisfaction. I highly recommend this class to others.
Feb 23 2006 - Jack Walters was a wealth of information. I have learned so much and I can't wait to implement it on ebay.
Feb 9 2006 - Very informative and factual. Answered questions with patience and understanding for those who were beginners.
Feb 5 2006 - It was very good!
Feb 5 2006 - Good class, lots of student comments. Instructor was well versed in ebay experience.
Feb 5 2006 - very informative and helpful with questions
Feb 4 2006 - Very informative
Feb 4 2006 - Jack was great-answered all questions-well versed-clear,concise delivery.slide presentation format good-but not able to read because of bluriness from projector.{need to improve on this aspect}!!VERY IMPORTANT.
Feb 4 2006 - Mr. Walters was very patience as he answered everyones question.
Feb 4 2006 - This was a very thorough coverage of all aspects of eBay. I now understand how to register and buy and sell on eBay.Our instructor was well prepared and certainly knew how to answer all questions. A+
Feb 4 2006 - The class gave me all i hoped for and then some. The instructor was personable and helpful to everyone, also patient with our many questions. It's nice to have his card for further help if needed. I'm glad I took the time.
Feb 4 2006 - I enjoyed the class, however, questions and answer period should be kept for the end of the session. It is distracting when the people in the class get things side tracked.
Nov 25 2005 - I am still not on ebay selling which was my goal. It would have been most helpful to actually use a computer in learning.
Nov 21 2005 - I would have loved to been in front of a computer to work through some of these steps, as I learn best by doing!
Nov 20 2005 - Very informative and gave detail and examples to help class understand.
Nov 18 2005 - Since so many computer novices are in these classes, I believe it would be beneficial to have the teacher use a live ebay model so people can see the screens they will be looking at. It would take a lot of the mystery out of the process and Jack wouldn't have had to take so much time answering stupid questions.
Nov 17 2005 - instructions should be coordinated with the workbook. power point slides require clarity improvement.
Nov 17 2005 - Need computer interactive with eBay pages in class. Brings out good questions as we view the real thing. Also answers many basic questions before they are asked thus saving time for more learning and higher level questions.
Nov 17 2005 - Good class but needs to be at least live demo of actual eBay pages being covered. This would reduce the number of basic questions and possibly replace them with higher level questions.
Nov 16 2005 - Jack Walters is an excellent instructor! The class was fun & informative. I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in opening an ebay Store.
Nov 15 2005 - Jack was very clear in his answers to my questions. Also patient and very positive person. I am anxious to get started!
Nov 11 2005 - It would have been beneficial to have had the workbook on the first day and for the slide presentation to have been coordinated with the workbook. Time spent looking for the subject matter in the workbook distracted from the lecture and lost my train of thought.
Nov 8 2005 - Wonderful! Great class, great instructor. Looking forward to beyond the basics!
Nov 8 2005 - very informative, extremely helpful and encouraging!
Oct 28 2005 - I enjoyed the class and found it very helpful. Even though I was already somewhat familiar with eBay, I found the information made me feel comfortable to use it. Mr. Walters was an interesting and informative instructor and his personal insights into selling on eBay were excellent. I'm looking forward to taking his second course about eBay.
Oct 28 2005 - The only thing missing was the ability to see the actual screens. For those of us that have heard enough from others to make you fear you can really get in trouble if you don't know what you are doing, seeing these actual screens would have been a big help. The book will be like my Bible, I won't go to e-bay for a long time without it. Thank you
Oct 27 2005 - Excellent course for a beginner like me. Instructor was very informative and patient with ansering questions. I thoroughly enjoyed the course. It has given me the courage to begin my EBAY career. Thank you, Jack
Oct 27 2005 - I think if we could be in front of computers and going through the process step by step hands on if would be to the students benefit. The instructor was reassuring as to helping us beyond the class which was very nice.
Oct 24 2005 - Really enjoyed the class but wish we could have done some hands-on work
Oct 24 2005 - I am a visual learning—- so seeing the screen and explaining what or how I continue to complete a task is very important.
Oct 22 2005 - Slides did not match book.Hard to follow slides in book to make notes in book. Suggest slides have the book page numbers. Book not available 1st class. Suggest it be available the first class. Copies of handouts not always provided. Good course though. Instructor kneww his stuff and provided some tips.
Oct 22 2005 - Enjoy the class! It helped with the problems of a new ebay seller or buyer.
Oct 21 2005 - Instructor knew his stuff. Could improve presentation skills/public speaking. People seemed to have trouble following slides with workbook. Too much time wasted in 2nd class handing out books: was almost 6:30 before lecture began.
Oct 21 2005 - Mr. Walters was very polite, courteous and knowledgeable. I wish that he would have had a microphone to speak from. Almost all of the class was 60* years old, and I bet most of us needed a little boost in volume. I would also like to have had the page numbers for the book so that when he was showing us a slide we could have been able to reference it in the book. Since folks learn in different ways, that would have been a true plus to be able to coordinate the book/slides. It would have been extremely helpful if the college would have given him an internet hookup for the class. Some things that were discussed could have been so much better visualized in this way. For example: when Mr. Walters spoke of "set up" in the tool bar, no one knew where to find it. He very clearly stated that it was at the top of each page, but when you aren't familiar with the ebay set up, it is very hard to understand. An internet hook up would have been wonderful at this time! Perhaps in the future, ebay could run some interference with the college to get this internet hook up. And finally, I would suggest that in the future it would be very nice if the textbooks could be available at the very first lesson. Since we only have a segment of 3, we loose a lot by not being able to go home and review using the text, what was presented in class and thus come prepared to the next one with our questions. I sincerely thank all concerned for the opportunity of taking this class. I especially thank Mr. Walters for his fine and professional manner.
Oct 21 2005 - Jack was very helpful. He did a good responding to everyone's questions.
Oct 21 2005 - 1) It would have been helpful to have books available at first class meeting. 2) Book & presentation materials were outdated. It was hard to follow lecture/book/presentation materials. 3) Updated materials were not available at last class as promised nor were they e-mailed next day as promised. 4) Presentation was a bit "canned". 5) Good overview of material but lacked depth. More class time needed? 6) Good tips & tricks; resources. 7) Adequate time given to answering questions. Good job answering questions. 8) Good facility, location, comfort level, etc.
Oct 20 2005 - I recommend that students be required to turn off their cellphones.
Oct 20 2005 - I enjoyed the class while learning as well, and look forward to taking the next level if it is offered after the first of the year. A schedule conflict prevents my taking the offering in November.
Oct 20 2005 - Content & presentation excellent. Would it be possible to extend to one more class? Cost is more than adequate. Increase of time would include icrease in cost. Kudos.
Oct 19 2005 - Would like to have had a computer to walk through a lot of the exercises.
Oct 19 2005 - Can't wait to get started!
Oct 19 2005 - extremely knowledgable and polite instructor
Oct 19 2005 - The class was not as "in depth" as I had hoped for. As a novice seller (sold one item a year ago), I was able to accomplish on my own most of the material that was presented in class. I was hoping to be able to pick up more "tricks" or shortcuts. Video and/or live demonstrations of placing an item up for auction would have been much more helpful. Apparently our classroom was not set up for the internet. Powerpoint slides of the pages in the book were redundant. Our instructor, however, was knowledgeable and helpful with the material that he was able to present.
Oct 19 2005 - Excellent job, well versed
Oct 19 2005 - Very informative for me, as a real novice.
Sep 17 2005 - Jack is a GREAT instructor. I've always yearned to be a seller on ebay and not just a "buyer"! But I was afraid to attempt it on my own! Now, because of Jacks class, I have the courage and the knowledge to do just that! Thanks Jack! Wonderful Class!
Sep 17 2005 - Really enjoyed the class and Jack. This will make selling on ebay a lot easier.
Jul 15 2005 - Mr. Jack Walters is a professional! He's very informative; very patient and answers questions in a detailed manner. It's an honor to meet him! I can start selling at E-Bay with confidence now - Thanks to Mr. Walters!
Jun 3 2005 - Instructor was very knowledgeable about ebay and its web site.
May 30 2005 - It was just what I wanted to find out. I would have liked a walk-through on my first listing, and maybe some actual computer experience to go with it, but I feel ready to try something small on my own.
May 29 2005 - personable and informative .
May 28 2005 - Thought this class could have been more in depth. Instead it feels like a come-on for the advanced class.
May 26 2005 - Looking forward to the advance class.
May 26 2005 - I wish the class included some live on-line time. I think it would clarify some of the instruction.
May 26 2005 - I just hope I can put into practice what I have learned!
May 25 2005 - Very knowledgeable instructor. I learned some new tricks. Thanks much.
May 25 2005 - I thought it was just enough - not too little info - not overload - instructor easy to talk to and understand.
May 25 2005 - Great instructor
May 25 2005 - Well informed and very helpful
May 25 2005 - Some live online examples, of filling in a demo account might be useful, I understand the time restraints also. Well Done! Jack Walters, very giving of himself. Thank you...
May 25 2005 - The class was very entry-level informative, and Mr. Walter quite knowledgeable, well-prepared, responsive to questions and willing to assist with individual needs.
May 25 2005 - It helps to get tips from an experienced seller.
May 25 2005 - More hands on worksheets?
May 25 2005 - Instructor very knowledgeable. Would be helpful to prepare a sample listing.
May 22 2005 - Great job. Very well explained.
May 9 2005 - Jack Walters is a wonderful teacher and I learned alot and I am ready to start selling on ebay.
Feb 14 2005 - Very information AND enjoyable - thanks, Jack!
Feb 14 2005 - This will help us get a great start! Our thanks to Jack, a super instructor and person!
Jan 15 2005 - Am glad we sigmed up with Jack & took the course. We're looking forward to doing some downsizing selling AND some buying on ebay.
Jan 14 2005 - Too long and dragged out.
Jan 13 2005 - Jack was very informative and detailed in his presentation, and answered all questions in an easy to understand manner. He used humor and detailed explanations making it easy for all to understand.
Jan 13 2005 - Very informative and down to earth. It would have been more beneficial if it had been possible for us to be sitting at a computer during the class, but I understand that it would be impossible to do so. The manual is great, and when I actually sit down to register as an ebay seller, I feel that things will go smoothly.
Jan 13 2005 - Good solid information,well prepared,and done in a manner that holds your attention.
Jan 13 2005 - This class gave me some good information and tips on how to sell.
Jan 12 2005 - Jack Walters is a credit to the e-Bay University educational program.
Jan 12 2005 - I've used ebay for a few years and found the class to be very helpful.
Dec 30 2004 - Probably one of the most interesting and informative classes I've been to in a long time. Jack, is something of a man of all seasons; it was a pleasure meeting him.
Nov 3 2004 - Jack Walters was a very patient and helpful instructor, as I had never used e-bay befoe but was very interested in both selling and buying. The information I was provided with gave me the knowledge and confidence that I needed and thanks to Jack Walters expertise in e-bay I am sure I will be successful in both buying and selling on e-bay. Jack Walters is an excellent instructor!
