While per Outschool policy parents can not be seen on the screen, experience shows their presence in the room is very beneficial. Children in this age participate better when encouraged by adults.

Some students like to dress up for my classes. However, please make sure that kids wear clothing that is comfortable for exercise. Wearing many layered clothes like a ballroom dress may be challenging for children.

In case you can not open ZOOM to sign in, please refer to the Helpline option "Cannot access the class". I open classroom several minutes prior to the start of the class to make sure my system works and assist to parents within my abilities. Ones class started, I am busy teaching and all questions should be forwarded to the Helpline :)
