Classes are pretty useless anyway, all you need to do is look in a book for a little while, then practice practice practice.

CarrionMan:
Another thing I thought of is blurring the background. It will help with the whole depth perception, after all, when talking to someone(I'm assuming you aren't checking out the ass[or the fire, or the fight, or whatever] across the room), you focus on them, and the background will be blurry.
And another thing includes lighting effects. If you think about the light placement and the effects of objects between another object has on light, you can assume that things far away and closer will have different lighting(unless it is like… I don't know what they're called. Those rooms where you can't tell where up is down or etc.).

A good book and practice is nice in theory, but a good class has a teacher who gives feedback and does not let you be lazy.
Also what if this someone takes this advice to mean it's okay to buy a How to Draw Manga book? DO YOU WANT THIS ON YOUR CONSCIENCE
BrilliantEraser:
While I do agree that practice is good, having someone keep you on task and motivated is infinitely more useful. I have actually never taken a formal art/drawing class, I only have my friend Jeff who reminds me to draw whenever I get the chance. Sort of like the following scenario.
::Phone rings::
Me: "Hello?"
Jeff: "What are you doing?"
Me: "Uh... brushing my teeth?"
Jeff: "No. I mean with your life."
Me: "Eep!"
