text: Distance learning can provide the ability for a student to interact one on one with their teacher, whereas in a full class, because of the ratio of teacher to students, the student may not get the opportunity to ask the necessary questions to allow him or her to fully understand the material. Switching to online schooling would allow the teacher to further understand the way that the student learns the material, what the student does and does not understand, and how they could teach it better for the student's understanding.
