Who's Teaching

"Dabble does an amazing job of advertising my classes. I've taught over 15 classes with Dabble and feel it has been a great resource for me. Dabblers are great, enthusiastic and followed directions much better than a lot of groups I've taught in the past. Thanks for everything, especially for answering my many questions all the time!"
Chicago, IL -
"I've met some great people through teaching classes with Dabble. In fact, some students have become regular customers! I wondered if I would get the type of customers I see from Groupon. But Dabblers were not like the typical deal seekers. They were excited to learn!"

About Dabble
