Online courses, as a form of distance learning, provide great convenience for one’s study. You can access an online course at the time and place that is most convenient for you. Furthermore you can study at your own pace. Online learning offers the flexibility you need. Besides, online courses are usually more affordable than traditional courses. Not only are the course fees often lower, but you also don’t have to pay for the transportation.

However, compared with learning in a traditional classroom, online courses may involve less interaction with the teacher and other students. In addition, the accessibility of online connection is also a question, for not everyone has got a computer with an Internet connection. Without that access, online learning cannot be realized.
