NYCResistor does look to drive engagement by discounting membership to $75 a month if you teach 2 classes a year. Given the location, and looking at pricing of comparable west coast makerspaces, this pricing model seems pretty fair. Without daily active users a makerspace or hackerspace will usually stop growing in membership, leaving it in a lurch where rent is going up, tools aren't getting upgraded, and the space is becoming less viable by the month :c

That seems like a good idea until you've been through some of the courses I've seen people run at hacker spaces. You need a committee to vet the courses and fire instructors that are terrible.
