How Online School Helps Students Gain New Skills
Students at online schools are practicing these skills only through the process of online schooling. Because of how online school works require them to be in communication with a teacher or education consultant.
Online Video Calls
Since we are an online school that works with international students, the only way to great them is via the Internet and platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Such forms of video calls are one of the ways through which we are communicating with our students. EduWW students can schedule a live 1 on 1 class with a tutor. Naturally, all students are initially shy, mostly because some are not used to this kind of communication. On the other side, it’s not too strange for them because everyone has a camera on their phones and uses social media.
Over time, communication with someone via Skype or Zoom becomes a natural thing from them. They won’t be shy in front of the camera, and it won’t be uncomfortable for them. And if you take a look at the way the world functions today, and we don’t necessarily mean only because of the coronavirus pandemic, a lot of things happen online. Being comfortable in an online environment, and even better, knowing how to communicate online on a variety of platforms, is one of the respected abilities that a student or an employee can have.
Written Communication
EduWW students also communicate in written form. They write messages in a Messaging box directly from the online learning platform, and they also write emails to their teachers. There is a sort of difference in the way you should write short messages and the way you compose an email.
Let us be clear, we don’t impose a strict rule about writing a message or an email. Yet, during the schooling process, students intuitively make the difference and learn what kind of questions are suitable for the Messaging box and what requires them to write an email. Knowing how to address a question or an issue and the right form to deliver it will significantly help them in life. Just imagine, when they apply to a college or a university, or when they send a job application. That is when their online communication skills can come in very handy.
Other Benefits of Online School
Aside from obvious benefits like flexibility and self-paced learning, online schools are teaching students some other valuable skills, simply through the process of education.
