text: In school, teachers are able to test the knowledge of students by giving them assignments and checking them, however, with online classes it is impossible for a teacher to know and understand if a student is learning. There also seems to be a bond that is broken between students and teachers, as teachers can help with more than just schoolwork. Not only do students lose the opportunity to address questions in person but they also lose someone they can talk to if they need help in their lives. Although at times it may not seem like the bond between teachers and students is one that can be important in a students life, certain teachers may be people who students are able to look up to and are inspired by to continue putting effort into their work now, as well as in the future. Without actually ever seeing your teacher, a student may forget why they are doing the work they do, as they may prefer to begin doing something else that they believe will benefit them more, for example, focusing more on their chores at home rather than their schoolwork. It seems that a certain part of effort in school comes from the student wanting to make a teacher proud and with introducing online classes, not only is the bond between teachers and students broken, students do not have a reason for submitting hard work to a teacher they have never met in person.
