I think studying in a classroom is a more preferred choice because there are close interactions with the teachers, the interactions also with the students, and one is able to identify their weaknesses. And like online, where students will just be reading, revising on themselves without even bothering on what they know or what they don’t know. Also, studying online have a lot of challenges. There are network issues, there are some teachers who may fail to understand or to know whether the students have understood or not. So the teacher will just be teaching and teaching without tiring, without even knowing the weakness of the students. But in classroom setting, with ventilation, with understanding, with raising up their hands, physical interactions with their teachers, physical demonstration compared to online. So teaching in a classroom and studying in a classroom by students is the best method that I personally would prefer to any other choices of studying.
