Online vs Offline Classes

I think it depends on the age. For my daughter in primary school, offline is a must because she needs that social interaction and play-time. However, for my elder one in 12th, the recorded online sessions for extra coaching are quite helpful for revision. Are you struggling with your child's focus at home?

Offline, definitely. The discipline of waking up, wearing a uniform, and going to school is missing in online classes. It is very hard to keep them motivated at home.

I have seen a huge difference in my son's grades since we switched back to full-time offline. During online, he used to keep his camera off and play games in the background. Now, with the teachers watching him directly, his concentration has improved so much. It is much better for their mental health too.

We have a hybrid situation in our school where some theory subjects are online and labs are offline. It has actually saved a lot of travel time, which we now use for his swimming classes. You might want to check if your school allows such flexibility if you are worried about the long commute.

Honestly, after two years of online school, I am strictly in favor of offline classes. My son in 7th grade was becoming so lazy with screen time and his handwriting had completely gone for a toss. In person, he is finally interacting with teachers and actually finishing his notes on time.
