Like many students around the world, children in South Korea are struggling with distance learning because of coronavirus health restrictions. Many are taking online classes from home. Some experts say the reduced interaction with teachers, digital distractions and technical difficulties are making it hard for students. This is especially the case if they have problems learning or are from poor families. Han Shin Bi has struggled during at-home learning. She is a senior in high school in Seoul. “Online classes are really inconvenient,” she told the Associated Press. “I ended up with a bad grade (on an exam) because I didn’t really focus on studying while online.” For students who were doing well before the health crisis, things have been less difficult. They often come from middle- and upper-class families. They have had an easier time keeping their grades up. They often have family support if they run into trouble.
