I can't express my gratitude enough, me and my students are already reaping the benefits from your kindness. With these headphones, my students are able to clearly hear their online math lessons that they are required to do for our district. Before, they would have to listen to these lessons out loud with other lessons interrupting their concentration. The students are now able to listen to their own lesson and be able to fully comprehend the material they are covering. \r\n\r\nMost of my students do not have access to headphones or tablets at home, so they were very excited to be able to use iPads and their new headphones that you provided for them. Their engagement with the lessons has skyrocketed and their comprehension of the material has also grown thanks to these headphones. \r\n\r\nI have included photos of a few of my students using the headphones in action while completing their online math lessons!
