'for a while' vs 'in a while'?
Guys, these two, 'for a while' and 'in a while' confuses me a lot.
Are these two pretty much interchangeable?

Use in a while to say WHEN you will do something or when you will arrive. "I will be there in a while. I will go to work in a while". Use for a while to say for HOW LONG you have done or are planning to do something. "I was there for a while. I will be here for a while. I have worked here for a while."
This is the best I can explain it, but I'm not an expert on English grammar

"for a while" EXAMPLE:
How long is your class? It's for a while.

"For a while" - This means more of what you are doing is going to take some time.
"In a while" EXAMPLES:
When is your class? In a while.
In a while, I will need those papers.
"In a while" - This means soon
