text: Some online classes will teach you by having a pre-made video of the teacher going over the material or even just a power point with the information, and that does not benefit the student at all. Students need to be engaged in their learning if they want to do good, so this means asking questions and getting help from the teacher. If the video is pre-made the student cant ask any questions about the subject to the teacher because they dont have a real teacher. This greatly hinders the learning ability for the student as all they can do is hope that they understand the material and watch the video or go through the slides. When a teacher is teaching and I dont understand something I dont raise my hand while shes still teaching but I wait for the 1 on 1 help because that is what I can learn from the most. If you are at home you dont have that opportunity to ask all those questions or to get direct 1 on 1 help from the teacher. Being in person and hearing someone explain something to you is way easier then hearing it over a laptop or computer, in person the teacher can uniquely explain something just to you. Like in math, having a teacher write on your paper and point out the mistakes that you made is really helpful, but without having a direct teaching scenario that cant happen. Having a teacher directly next to you rather than over a screen will benefit you way more.
