Worst Things About Online Schools

As a guy who once went to an online school, I can tell you that it is not a great experience. If you hate the school you go to, you should be glad that you aren't in online school. Without further ado, let's take a look at this list.
The Top Ten
1 Easy to get distracted

Now that we're in quarantine, we have to do online learning until everything goes back to normal. My phone is usually around me during Microsoft Teams classes, so I get distracted a lot by watching YouTube on my phone rather than listening to a boring lesson that I most likely won't use 10 years from now.

I am very guilty of this...

2 Your internet connection can have technical issues

You would miss a lot of time to do stuff on the online school, because your wifi wasn't working properly. chances are, you would miss a class and have to watch the recording (I Don't know if all online schools record the classes)

3 You don't really make friends

When you take online classes, the teacher and classmates are nothing more than just a bunch of names in the list of people who attend this class. Some schools might have a chat feature in their classes, but since it is online, you cannot give any personal info. That means no contact info given and that means you can only talk to classmates in online classes

4 No memories are made

Imagine the worst school you went to, but without events or field trips or any of that. That's Right, Online schools do not have events, field trips, and no Yearbooks! Yearbooks are meant to remember what happened in the school year and take a trip down memory lane.

5 Teachers don’t actually teach

I don't know about you but I need teachers to actually teach me in order to understand things. I'm not one who likes the stereotypical "watch the video and figure it out" teacher. You wonder why kids don't learn as much it's because teachers don't always teach which means it's less about doing the assignments right and more about getting them done before 11:59 pm.

6 Flexible arrival and dismissal times

Some say this is a pro, but I say this is a con

7 Harder to make friends
8 Absolutely no creativity comes from this
9 Harder to get engaged
10 Students are less likely to succeed
The Contenders
11 Harder to get help
12 Poorly managed electives

Trust me, electives on online schools are a total Joke.

13 It can be overwhelming

Having to deal with schoolwork and chores at home can be overwhelming at times

14 The only reason that they are here is to replace the occupation of a teacher
15 No days off (except weekends)

Remember when you were a kid and you woke up and saw snow on the ground and your mom said you don’t have school today? Remember when you got sick and got to lay in bed all day? Yeah gone are those days it’s likely we may never have snow days ever again

16 It's boring
17 It has no benefits
18 Your computer has problems
19 Your teacher has business hours
20 It’s repetitive
