text: Another reason students learning in school is more beneficial to them is because it has a more personal connection between teacher and student. If a student is taking classes online there is a good chance that the teacher doesn't even know it unless it is a one-on-one teaching session where it is only the teacher and the student. This means students that need extra help and students that want to ask questions can't because they aren't there to talk to the teacher directly. If I wanted to meet my teacher after class because of something I didn't understand during class time, I would be able to because I can just walk up to them and ask; however, if i wasn't present in the classroom I wouldn't be able to ask for that extra help. This puts students who have trouble learning at a disadvantage. If a student is struggling with something, a teacher can visibly see that and go help; however, if the student is struggling online the teacher wouldn't notice at all and the student would have to do more work than necessary.
