To protect the most important aspect of our classes, our positive environment, we follow these and other standards. See also, the channel -rules.
All actions in class are in context of our most importation principle - Environment.
Phrase comments as encouragement.
Be aware of words that can be taken as criticism.
Prudent use of gifs and images. Nothing disturbing or too large.
Consider that an image that takes up the width of a screen on a phone appears even larger on a full size screen. Consider that multiple, bright, or highly animated images can be distracting.
No unrequested corrections.
No Cursing, including as abbreviations.
For personal messages, please use Direct Messages and not the public classes-chat.
Remember that language has an effect on the person who hears the words that can be different from how you experience the words you say. For this reason, please:
Avoid slang and other easily misinterpreted phrases.
Avoid the use of: bro; dude; man, mate, dope etc. These assume a level of familiarity that may not be the case, are not considered professional, and can easily cause offense when used with others you do not know. Ask yourself, are you sure you know that person well enough to use these terms.
If you have seen someone trolling or cursing or breaking the rules..
