text: Learning in a classroom also helps kids build self-control, patience, and the ability to learn from someone else in person. As we grow older, we learn many skills including self-control and patience from being in classrooms; we learn from discipline and through the teachers. Learning from home would hurt us because we would too comfortable at home and not develop these necessary skills. Also, I have found that learning material from someone else has a very lasting effect on people. I go to a camp in the summer and have been taught many things by my counselors and peers alike. Now, as a counselor myself, I teach others skills. This cycle of learning and teaching is very beneficial for the future. Distance learning may help kids learn but the in-person teachings are crucial for kids to develop and grow.
