3. If you were to take a class with your friends in your home, what would you expect to pay for the class. Expect it to last 3-5 hours.

Off the top of my head, $100-200, depending on what's taught.

4. Would you prefer these classes to remain small, 4-5 people, or would groups as large as 10 or more be ok?

I'd be okay with larger groups, depending on the setting. In my house, I'd rather keep it small.

5. Finally, would you like it to be intimate and familiar, hosted in a friends kitchen. Or would you rater drive to a location with a professional kitchen to take these classes?

I would actually prefer it in a large professional kitchen. Lots more room, and maybe some time to practice what I've learned with the teacher watching over me.
