People could debate all day long about whether online learning is better than actually attending a class, and in truth, there may never be a winner to that argument.
But there’s no doubt that online sessions have their perks. You can do them from the comfort of your bedroom or study, there’s no travel time required, and hey, you don’t even have to get properly dressed (though we wouldn’t recommend this last perk!). All you need is some best gadgets like WiFi, a laptop or a tablet and you’re good to go.

1. microphone-equipped headphones There are few things more annoying in the “working from home” world than being disturbed by hearing your housemates’ conversations!
With that in mind, get yourself a decent pair of headphones that can keep your sessions (and theirs) private. Though make sure that the headphones you buy also have a microphone, or else you’ll constantly be on mute during that Zoom class!
They don’t have to be big and bulky, nor do they have to be as slick as a set of AirPods, as long as you can hear and be heard clearly without having to shout.
2. Ergonomic chair
You’re going to be spending a lot of time sitting at a desk (or maybe standing… more on that below). So you may as well make sure that you can be comfortable, while keeping your posture right to avoid doing any long term damage!
In case you were wondering, ergonomic also means that it was made to be comfortable and effective in a workplace. Bonus points for a chair with wheels — it’s fun to scoot around your room between classes.
3. A webcam upgrade
You probably won’t need this if you have a modern laptop, such as a Macbook, or any other laptop. But webcams tend to be pretty poor on standard laptops, and perhaps non-existent if you’re working on a desktop computer.
A quality upgrade doesn’t have to be expensive and could make the difference between your digital you looking like you or like a character from a 1990s television show. 4. Backrest for orthopedics a less expensive alternative to our ergonomic chair or an excellent complement to it! As someone who has struggled with back pain since high school, a straightforward posture-correcting backrest is one of the best investments I’ve ever made. The elderly may claim that back pain is exclusively their problem. A decent one will allow you to sit comfortably while preventing you from slouching, too much of which leads to back and neck ache. Trust me on that one.
