text: The first reason that distance learning should be offered is that it accommodates all of the students varying situations. Famous social media influencer Annie Leblanc opted to take distance learning after leaving her home state, Maryland, in order to travel to Los Angeles,California in order to work on her acting career. Annie, known for her family YouTube channel Bratayley, chose to embark on the journey of acting, and although she was successful booking a main lead role in the Brat series Chicken Girls, she was determined to also complete her high school education. The compromise that she was offered was online schooling or distance learning where she was able to complete her courses from across the country at any time of day, especially while on break on set. Another person who opted for distance learning when they were unable to attend school, is my twenty-two year old cousin Generic_Name who, through using Generic_School's online graduate program, earned her masters in Psychology. My cousin has always been a studious person who worked hard in school to always improve her education, and after graduating in the winter of 2018, decided she wanted to continue her studies by earning her masters degree. However, at the time she was a a full-time employee at the company Constellis where she worked a nine-to-five. She knew that actually attending classes on campus would be difficult to incorporate into her schedule, so when introduced to the option of online schooling, she was beyond delighted to be given the opportunity to complete her education in the way that best accommodated her situation. Giving students the opportunity to chose distance learning at times where life throws them a curve ball is beneficial for it helps the student to benefit from their time.
