More Zoom tips and etiquette

• You are a participant and the teacher is the host.

• Please mute yourself (participant) upon entering the session and whenever you are not speaking to prevent interruptions to the class. Even shuffling props can cause interruptions.

• Raise a hand if you'd like to speak and the teacher (host) will unmute you or will ask you to unmute yourself.

• Hover over the upper right corner of your screen to change from Speaker view to Gallery view. Speaker view will allow whoever is speaking to dominate the screen that you see. Gallery view is nice.
