Most useful class? None...

What I do:
Write in English: I learned English by working in a pig farm in Southern Ontario when I was 16, and then by reading and watching TV.
Translate to French: I never took any translation class, a friend whose a translator showed me the basics.
Transition to XML doc: I have a B.Sc. in Computer Science, but I never heard about XML, HTML, javascript or any other language or tool (FrameMaker, Robohelp, Word, Trados) when I was in school.
I teach Lingo programming at night: I learned that language at work and never took any teaching class.

Globally, I did learn about communication and computers!
