Some recommendations
1) Respect class hours.
2) The pause during the lesson is a break for everybody.
3) For any information or question, it is better to come to the teacher’s office during consultation hours rather than writing an e-mail.
4) Ask general questions about the course (exams, teaching materials, tests, ecc.) in public view before the class beginning / retake.
