Accessing your Online Class

If you have used Zoom on your device, it’s as easy as clicking our class link at the appropriate class time.

If you have never used Zoom before, it is quite easy to get set up once you click the class link.

Once the class starts, you will see the teacher on the screen in a large box and then several smaller boxes containing the other students.


Setting Up Zoom
 

Here is a demo that takes you through these steps: https://youtu.be/vFhAEoCF7jg

Here is a demo if you are having trouble with getting your audio or video working: https://youtu.be/HqncX7RE0wM

If you are on a phone or tablet that is using Zoom for the first time, you will need to download the Zoom app. Visit either Apple’s App store, Google Play Store or the appropriate app download center for your device. ZOOM IS FREE TO DOWNLOAD AND USE!

Once downloaded, search in your apps for ZOOM Cloud Meetings and make sure the app icon looks like a white video camera on a blue background.

 

During Your Class

You will be on camera, so that the teacher can sense you and respond to the needs of the students. If for any reason you do not want to be on camera, it is possible to turn the video off on the bottom left-hand corner of the screen, but this will mean the teacher is not able to speak to you personally. 

 

IF YOUR CAMERA IS NOT WORKING

You will need to install the updated version of Zoom on your computer. Once you do this, restart your computer and try connecting again via the link. If that does not work, please connect to our class on your Smartphone or other device such as a tablet.

IF YOUR AUDIO IS NOT WORKING

You may need to check that your speakers are on, or you may need to adjust your privacy settings to allow Zoom access to your microphone (mic for short).
