Erie, PA: Online VS Live Real Estate Class???
In this world of technology why does Erie, PA prefer a live Real Estate class VS an online class?
As a Real Estate instructor who has been teaching Real Estate classes for 20+ years I constantly hear Real Estate pre-license students say that they prefer live Real Estate classes VS an online class.
Why? One student who had attempted to take the Pennsylvania pre-license classes online, gave up in frustration and paid to attend live class. Why?
- 'Taking an online class was like reading a 500 page book, line by line with no explanation and no input from an instructor.'
I remember reading 500+ page books in college literature classes. Crime & Punishment was more captivating, I am sure.
- No text book for review & studying is another complaint about online classes. Some online students print each computer screen & compile the pages in 3-ring binder. (How much do they spend on ink & paper?) Others take copious hand-written notes for easy access while studying.
- Very dry material. One online student compared the online real estate class to reading & memorizing the dictionary.
- No, local information about Real Estate market. Yes, the text makes mention of PA law & practice, but PA is a very large state. The real estate market in Philadelphia & eastern Pennsylvania market is so different than western Pennsylvania, especially northwestern PA.
- Who do I ask? Who is available to answer my questions? Many of my students say that they prefer my 'live Real Estate' class so they can 'ASK MARY' to explain words like escheat, eminent domain and life tenant.
