Hi - I know this is very remotely related to Elecraft, but good advice is never in short supply in this group...

Here in Iceland the requirement for knowledge of CW is no longer required for amateur HF licenses - a trend that we see in most countries nowadays.

Still, I am interested in establishing CW courses for those new amateurs who may want to learn CW, and I am seeking advice from those of you who have experience.  For example...

- General suggestions for methods (Koch, etc.)
- Software and other tools for class teaching and individual practice between classes
- Teaching methodologies and approaches (frequency of classes, length, character groups,...)
- Other activities to support and encourage (kit building, on-air sessions,..)
