Differences Between Online and Offline Learning
1. Within an online learningenvironment, I am unable to directly do hands-on work to help you embodycertain vocal principles
In an offline environment, I usually liketo do hands-on work to help students understand important vocal principles. Forexample: I want you to be able to breathe down into your lower back. I can justgive you the verbal instructions, but if I can directly help you feel whereyour breath enters your lower back, your body will be able to much moreeffectively embody the essence of this technique.
If we were in an online learningenvironment, I would not be able to guide you as effectively. Your learningoutcome will not be as good.
2. It is much easier to be distracted inan online learning environment
It is much easier to be distracted withinan online learning environment by your computer, phone, iPad, otherapplications or adverts. From a teacher’s perspective, it is also harder for meto monitor and keep you engaged.
This will affect the effectiveness of theclass and your learning progress.
3. Online classes are much moreconvenient
If you do choose to take online classes,you will be able to learn from the comfort of your own home. This will beespecially convenient if you live far away from our classrooms.
4. Offline voice classes allow you tomore deeply embody the principles of the voice work
Our Linklater Voice Classes encouragestudents to deeply open their imaginations, voices and bodies. We have alreadyprepared a suitably big offline classroom that would meet the specific needs ofthe voice and acting exercises. Sometimes these exercises require students tovocalise and embody text loudly. Sometimes they require students to embody bigand profound emotions. In such situations, an offline classroom would promoteheightened concentration. In an online classroom, technical difficulties likelagging would impede concentration.
5. English Classes and Presentation andInterview Skills Classes are completely compatible with an online learning environment
These two types of classes do not place anybig space-related requirements on students in order to learn, and are thereforecompatible with an online learning environment.
