Online learning and wellbeing

Greetings everyone. 

One particular factor positively impacting my well-being is to study whenever and wherever I am comfortable. The flexibility reduces the pressure and tension of punctuality. this further allows me to study at a time that does not impact other commitments. 

One of the challenges is to attend the synchronous meetings; especially due to challenges in time zones. As much as I would like to attend them, if there are in the middle of the night, it's not possible. Recordings do not have the same effect as attending the live ones. The solace is the availability of a tutor who responds to questions (related to the topic in the recording) sent via email. 

Thank you for reading my post. Looking forward to know which challenges you face and how you deal with them, 

Smruti.
