text: Distance learning, as the name suggests, is done from a distance. The student learns from the comfort of their home, and benefits from personalized time with a teacher. When at school, students are distracted with other items such as friends, activities, and perhaps even relationships. When in the comfort of their own home, however, they they can easily focus on their schoolwork with no distractions present. Since there are no other students present, students can benefit from personalized time with a teacher; the teacher has no other students except that one student. Video conferencing benefits the student immensely, because, when in the comfort of their home, they can converse with the teacher and have an easier learning experience.
