text: In online schools students will not have the opportunity to talk to their teacher face to face much, if at all, and even if students are able to communicate with their online teachers, it can still never be better than a face to face conversation in real life. A face to face conversation in real life allows people to connect and get a greater sense of understanding of the conversation and the person, something that is unable to be replicated online. This will lead less students developing bonds with their teachers, and of the students that do develop bonds with their teachers, the bonds will not be as if they were from a traditional school. When a student develops a bond with a teacher, it makes it easier for that student to ask the teacher questions or to ask for help. The teacher can also provide valuable connections to the student. In life, there is a great saying that is it's not what you know, but who you know. What that means is that in life connections to people are very important. Connections can provide opportunities that would have never been possible without those connections. Many teachers provide students with great opportunities that the student would not have been presented with without their connection to their teacher. With online classes, students will not be able to get those needed connections from their teachers unlike in traditional schools.
