Rookie35m does have a point, Capitalism will be a cure. The only problem I have with that attitude is that if someone is paying to attend school, even if it is a non-credit class, they are attempting to avoid the school of hard knocks. And, Capitalism is definitely the school of hard knocks!
Pick a few pieces of work from recent students and a few pieces done by good photographers. In the first hour, put up the photos and do a quick critique of each addressing the skills necessary to get the photo. Point out that the photographer only gets one pass at a wedding and that if no one else is shooting the event, the bride and her mother will be extremely upset with the photographer if photos are missed or lacking the expected quality.
