2. Personal Experience: Which learning environment generally worked better for you and your personality? Share a short story or a key observation that explains why. Was it about focus, interaction, convenience, or something else?

It's hard to say... I can study better with online classes because I can learn whatever I want and get answers to my questions at any time. But I may feel lonely if I only sit behind my computer without any classmate around.  Though I know they are exactly there behind a screen,  I find it hard to take them as real people. 

Having others around not only reduces my loneliness but also improves my learning efficiency,  since I tend to entertain myself when alone.
