text: When classes are being taken online, students are isolated from others making it harder for them to practice their social skills. This does not benefit them in any type of way; especially, if the student doesn't do any activities outside of the house. Social skills are important in the real world because they help people find jobs and survive in society. In order to receive a job, a person has to talk to the interviewer and if they're nervous, then they don't receive the job. Without social skills students are not benefiting from taking online classes.
