Live Classes: A Video Classroom Fully in the Teacher's Hands

A good lesson begins the moment two sides of a screen become a single classroom. Sanal.Academy live classes take the video classroom beyond a simple video call and turn it into a learning space where the teacher has every tool at hand and students can join and take an active role with ease. Below we explain how live classes work and what they offer to both teachers and parents.

A complete control panel in the teacher's hands

In a live class, the teacher is the full moderator of their own classroom. Every tool needed to run the lesson is gathered into a single panel, so the teacher can guide the class without breaking the flow of their explanation. These tools include:

• A real-time shared whiteboard (Excalidraw): Everything the teacher writes, draws, and shows appears on students' screens instantly. It is a natural space for writing out a formula step by step or building a diagram together.
• Instant polls and quizzes: You can ask a quick question during the lesson and measure right there whether the class has understood the topic. Answers are handled with privacy in mind, so students do not see and get influenced by one another's responses.
• Question and answer: Students send the questions on their minds, and the teacher answers them in an orderly flow. No question gets lost in the noise of the explanation.
• Mute: When needed, you manage the class to prevent distractions and give the floor to the right person at the right moment.
• Lesson recording: You can record the lesson and make it accessible afterward for students who could not attend or who want to review.

Having these tools together lets the teacher devote their energy not to technical details but to teaching itself.

Joining is easy and welcoming for students

The value of a lesson is directly proportional to how easy it is to join. Students join Sanal.Academy live classes through a single invite link or QR code. There are no complicated setups or long steps; tapping the link or scanning the code is enough.

Once inside the classroom, the student is not a passive viewer. They follow the whiteboard in real time, voice their opinion in instant polls and quizzes, and raise what they do not understand through question and answer. This interaction helps keep alive the attention and participation that are the greatest challenge of remote learning.

A reassuring framework for parents

For parents wondering what kind of environment their child is learning in, live classes offer a transparent and well-ordered structure. The teacher running the lesson is the full moderator of the classroom; who speaks and when, the moment a question is asked, all of it is under the teacher's control. Tools such as mute help maintain order in the class.

The privacy of answers in instant polls and quizzes lets students express themselves without feeling pressure or the worry of being compared with others. And thanks to lesson recording, missing a day or wanting to revisit a topic is no longer a problem.

The natural shape of learning together

Live classes bring that familiar energy of a classroom onto the screen: the teacher writing on the board, checking in with the class through a question, the student raising a hand without hesitating to ask. They combine all of this into one smooth experience.
