But not all teachers are in demand by online teaching modes as part of Chennai, Chengalpattu, Kancheepuram, and Tiruvallur have a power failure.
Elizabeth Neena, Principal Principal at OMR in Chennai, told IANS, “We want to do online classes for students but some students are in places where there is no power for the past two days and in some areas of lying into the water entering the house .
So I prefer to give them away and take additional classes so the situation becomes normal.

Higher MCC Middle School in Chetpet, Chennai has started an online class but they have not made mandatory classes for students by considering heavy rain, power failure and water logging in many parts of the city and adjoining areas.
GJ Manohar, Principal, while talking to IANS said, “Children and teachers who face water logging and power failure do not need to attend classes because they are not mandatory.”
Most of the schools have started online classes for class VI students to XII.
School management and teachers say that shifting to the online platform is not difficult because they have experience in taking online classes during a pandemic.
Colleges are also allowed to take classes and students can choose whether they join the class or not because of power failure and rain problems.
Most universities have directed teachers to conduct classes if the online presence is 80% and more.
If there is little participation, the teacher is free to cancel the class.
The teacher hopes to cover more parts of the theory in the online class and focus on practical classes after the physical class continues.
Most of the city area was flooded even on Wednesday, including Colathur, the Constitution of the Minister of M.K.
