Over a hundred students from 21 students who participated in the DreamStarter program went online on time.
The DreamStarter team is very encouraged by the active participation of more than 100 students, and more parents accompanying their children to the classroom, and thank the schools for their coordination and communication with parents in advance. Even though students just need to adapt the program just after learning the program, seeing each of their smiling faces from the video screen, and testing the sound effects of the computer microphones at home and the scenes of the camera, it feels interesting and serious. It is worth mentioning that the Webex Meetings online conference program has been in a very stable state throughout the 40-minute classroom, so that everyone has a good experience.
DreamStarter online classes will continue until the school resumes classes. It is hoped that in just one class per week, apart from bringing different knowledge to students, we also hope to give them more encouragement, more interaction and more love!
