Online Classroom – Frequently Asked Questions
What is an online classroom?
An online classroom is a course which a student can take over the Internet. Each course consists of several online lessons in the form of well-developed videos. Each lesson is generally based on one topic, such as “How to solve problems involving percent increase or decrease?”. The lesson explains the topic and solutions in detail with many examples. The student may pause the video tutorial to solve some of the problems by himself / herself and resume the video to see if he/she got the problem correct.
Many lessons include do-by-yourself assignments and quizzes in addition to video tutorials.
What are the advantages of online classroom?
Online classroom offers many advantages and benefits for students:
(1) Students may take online classroom lessons any time of the day that is convenient to them! For example, a student who goes to regular school may choose to take the lesson in the evening after returning from school. But a home-schooling student may take the lessons during the day.
(2) Students may take online classroom lessons on any schedule. For example, a student may take a lesson everyday or every other day or weekly twice depending on the student’s convenience.
(3) Students may re-take the same lesson(s) as necessary! If a student needs to reinforce concepts and techniques explained in a lesson, the student may re-take the lesson as many times or as often as necessary – at no additional cost.
(4) SamSchool online classroom lessons offer the same successful, result-oriented teaching methodology as used in SamSchool Learning Centers which have helped hundreds of students to get high scores in standardized tests and secure high school admissions in specialized high schools in New York, Virginia and other places.
(5) SamSchool Online Classroom courses are super affordable, saving hundreds of dollars for you!
Who are the instructors?
SamSchool Online Classroom lessons have been created and reviewed by SamSchool’s test prep professionals with many years of experience in teaching and test prep. These pre-recorded lessons were presented by experienced educators and recorded by media professionals.
These online courses have been designed in such a way that the lesson topic has discussed extensively and all relevant questions on the topic have been explained. The lessons are easy to follow and understand without any help from tutors in order for students to take lessons at their own convenient schedules.
Therefore, there are no instructors “online” when a student takes a lesson!
What is the duration of each lesson?
The duration of lessons vary from about 20 minutes to 40 minutes. In addition to video tutorials, some lessons include do-by-yourself practice exercises with answer keys and quizzes.
What are the eligibility requirements for taking a course?
There are no eligibility requirements to sign up and take SamSchool Online Classroom courses. Please read course info for the course you are interested and ensure that the course will cater to your needs.
Must a student be a resident of New York or the USA in order to take a course?
Nope! SamSchool Online Classroom courses may be taken by anyone, regardless of where he/she lives.
Do I need to purchase any course materials?
No. SamSchool Online Classroom courses include video tutorials and other assignments which are necessary for the courses. However, you may purchase textbooks or test prep books from any book store for additional practice.
I have already signed up with a private tutor. Would SamSchool’s Online Classroom course help?
Yes! Since private tutoring hours are limited, SamSchool’s Online Classroom will be greatly helpful to review the lessons as often as needed – even after the private tutoring course ends!
SamSchool’s Online Classroom is highly affordable and costs just a fraction of private tutoring courses!
How many online lessons can a student take in a day?
If you sign up for a course early, you may try to take 6 to 8 lessons a week and practice do-by-yourself assignments. You may also practice related problems from text books and test prep books. If you have difficulty in solving any problem, you must play the lesson video again and understand the subject and techniques.
For best results, try to maintain consistent schedules to take online lessons. For example, take the lessons at 6 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays and 10 a.m. during weekends and holidays.
It’ll be a great idea to maintain a simple log of when and what lesson you took. This will help you not only to maintain a consistent schedule, but also to review your progress.
What if I need help with some lessons or problems?
We certainly understand that students may need help with some lessons and problems.Very often, students will be able to solve these problems by watching the corresponding video tutorial again and following the same steps as illustrated in the tutorial. They may send the problems by email from our contact page and we’ll respond to them in the order they were received. Priority will be given to problems that are included in our own course lessons.
What device do I need to take SamSchool Online Classroom Courses?
This is an online course and therefore, you’ll be required to have a reliable Internet connection and a suitable device such as a PC, laptop or tablet. Cell phones may not be suitable to take these lessons. Please watch the FREE lessons, as mentioned above, to determine if your device is suitable to take the course.
Can I share my password with my friend?
No, that’ll be illegal and may result in serious legal consequences. So, please do not share the password or the lessons with your friend(s). On the other hand, we’d be thankful to you if you recommend SamSchool Online Classroom to your friends and tell them to sign-up. 🙂
