When you compare online classes to traditional classes. They have differences.  First is your time. When you are going to school attending regular classes, you need to follow the regular schedule of each subject and sometimes it has 1-2 hours gap before the second subject will start. With online classes you hold your own time. You could schedule your online sessions on your most convenient time and its a big advantage for those who are working and has family to attend to.

Second is the discussion and communication from the teacher to the student if you’re attending regular classes. Normally,  if a student has a question, the teacher will just answer the question directly and immediately basing from his own source.

But for online courses, whatever question that the student has it will be answered accordingly plus the question will be posted on the discussion board or thru email where other students and teachers can participate in discussing the subject. That is on online interaction. They have the chance to understand the subject matter and  any questions that  they  have will be answered accordingly.

It’s only that for online classes you will be isolated since you will not be going to any school. You can’t experience the social aspect when you attend classes in any colleges and universities. It needs more understanding from your family member that sometimes you need to be alone to focus on your online classes.
