Some people think that we learn best through in-person interaction with a teacher in a classroom. Others believe that online learning is more effective. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

Some say that learning is best acquired through in-person interaction with a tutor in a classroom,

while

others think that it can be received more effectively online. I find the latter more beneficial because,

although

offline learning can help with discipline and collaboration, there is nothing that compares to the flexibility and customization that come with online education, especially with the advances in modern technology. On the one hand, experiencing an interactive learning environment can help with synchronous doubt clearing and the formation of interpersonal and collaborative skills. People tend to learn better when surrounded by intellectual peers, fostering teamwork.

This

is the reason why almost all primary schools are held offline in the presence of a skilled teacher. It

providing these real-time utilities, digital learning

also

brings along a very lucrative point—flexibility.

On the other hand

, learning online means that the course can be tailored to meet people's capabilities or interests.

Moreover

For example

, during COVID, a very popular tech-ed startup named Scalar opened up, providing online teaching with facilities like live doubt solving, recorded classes, recorded assignments, mentor help, etc., simulating an in-person environment, but much better because it is online. An entire genre of

companies has now opened up, making use of

trend. Udemy is another

website that lets users opt for self-paced courses,

of which certain "coins" or points are rewarded, making the learning much more effective, enjoyable, and fulfilling, discarding the need for an instructor 24/7.

To conclude

although

the presence of a teacher in an interactive classroom can help sustain discipline and
