Real teacher vs virtual teacher debate

I have done homeschooling in the past. I've found it increasingly difficult to stay on task when using a virtual teacher. This may very well be my lack of responsibility, but I feel like a real teacher would keep you on task. Lets not forget social aspects as well. If you are speaking about a virtual teacher within a classroom of many, than this factor does not apply.

Virtual is better than a real but you can't really ask a virtual teacher a question
