Today, due to the epidemic of coronavirus, many people have to stay at home to protect themselves and their loved ones. As for the students .. well, many of them switched to distance learning and continue to study with the same success without leaving their homes. And here the question begs - is distance learning really better?
Okay, for me going to school was much more convenient and easier - while sitting at home I lose a lot! I can only chat with my friends and classmates on social networks and instant messengers; from a luminous computer monitor my eyes constantly hurt; and finally, I sit at home literally all day, and I don’t walk at all (although I used to walk very little, and my only walk was “to school - from school”)! I never understood and do not understand people who like distance learning - many people like it because you can write off homework from ready-made homework websites, and of course you don’t need to leave home - introverts would like it - but this good side for me is the WORST side, because nothing can compensate me for live communication!
So as you see - I literally hate the distance learning; I wish the quarantine will end soon so I’ll see my classmates and my dear teachers, of course!
