First of all.... congrats are starting your class.... You will LOVE SCUBA! It's great.

Anyway... your question requires some questions

#1 the fins and snorkel are a no brainer. Just check the size charts for any given fin, and you're done.. the snorkel... just make sure it's not a kids snorkel and that will work fine for your class.

#2 For the mask, What shape of a face do you have? If you have a round face I'd suggest this one... http://www.onestopscuba.com/catalog/...roducts_id=359. That is a great mask for someone with a bigger face.... works ok with a average face too, but I tend to get some leaks with it..... I have an average face shape and love using this one..... http://www.onestopscuba.com/catalog/...products_id=28. Should you have any more questions... PM me.

Have fun
