text: The biggest part of taking classes online is the student chooses when they have classes and are not told where to be by class schedules. Students can wake up as late as they want as long as they finish all of their classes before the day is over. When your classes are on your own time, you can chose when you have breaks and when yo have to be doing work. Having taken online classes before I can say that when I got to choose when to do my work I found myself developing better time management skills that have helped me in my normal everyday life. Although some may say you are missing out on the importance of a classroom setting, the classroom brings a lot of tension and is not for everyone.
