The world is developing, and now parents have a choice: send their child to a public school, a private one, or transfer them to online learning. Here are a few points why moms and dads should consider distance learning.
The child will be given attention
It is difficult for a teacher to help each child in the lesson due to lack of time and a great number of students. In an online school, there are usually 15 to 30 students in a class, but at the same time, the teacher can pay attention to everyone, they look for an individual approach to everyone and strive to help.
No place lock-in
Now parents can easily fly on vacation at any time of the year and generally travel the world with their child. No more waking up in the dark and taking the buses to school – all you have to do is turn on video from home! Online learning will especially appeal to those children who are professionally involved in sports, get sick a lot (have health restrictions, for example, disability) or simply do not get along with the team very well.
The student himself chooses the subjects that interest him
If a student wants to study computer science more than biology, he can choose several lessons a week on this disciplines. In online schools, the student often forms the schedule himself (within reasonable limits): this makes it much easier for him to prepare for exams, and the lessons will not get boring, because the child will do what he is interested in.
Strict selection of teachers
As a rule, online schools are private, so there is a particularly strict selection for teachers: the administration monitors the progress of the teacher, how he communicates with students, and so on. This is a great advantage, because there is no such control in a public school, teachers can often behave incompetently.
Personal curator
All moms and dads are delighted that they no longer need to answer a million questions from a child and keep track of all his activities! Usually, in schools that conduct classes online, students have a curator who helps if they have difficulties with the schedule of classes, etc.
All information online
Parents and children in online schools have electronic diaries where all information about the progress of students is noted, on the student's personal page, the student's mother and father can communicate with the curator and teachers at any time. Also, one more advantage, no exactions on curtains!
Lots of practice
Now in many schools, the principle of "reverse lesson" is applied: students themselves study a new topic, try to make homework, and only then analyze those points with the teacher that they did not understand. Of course, no one relieves the teacher of responsibility! He is still always there, supports and guides students, but gives everyone the opportunity to study at their own pace, to consider the subject from the side from which it is convenient for a particular student to start.
An additional plus: with this rhythm, schoolchildren have time for hobbies — by the way, many online schools have different hobby groups.
