“Some shy children basically will not be comfortable talking in online classes and therefore a teacher may not be able to take a lack of learning or understanding of certain concepts until it appears in the assessment.
That means extra effort on the teacher’s section to plug in this gap and Strengthen concepts when we return to physical school, “he added.
