What are Distance Learning Instructors?

These instructors may teach a variety of subjects and are responsible for engaging students, assessing their progress, and providing support throughout the course. Their roles often involve using video conferencing, discussion boards, and learning management systems to communicate and interact with students. Distance Learning Instructors play a key role in making education accessible and flexible for diverse learners.
