It is not necessary. Learning English is very interesting especially when you discuss everything in class.But as a teacher I give out homework just to see the progress of my students and weigh on their strengths and weaknesses and it should not be too much.
No :) , but doing some will help you consolidate
It is necessary to have a lot of 'exposure'.

I guess sometimes too much is too much, but look at from a different angle, you are learning all the time, the more you learn the better.
No, not at all. Rather learning English language should be based on activities. Home Work can be there but as an engagement activity only.
Hello! I think, it is better to do homework(for example learning words), so that your online classes are more useful, and you can learn it faster. But it is not really necessary. It depends on how much time you have and how fast you want to investigate it

No it is not nessery
Not at all. In my opinion, as long as the teacher successfully teaches your class within the time period needed, then you need no homework at all.
No, it's not. However, they do help you to retain the information you learned during a lesson, which will then increase your general understanding of the language
One can only practice through home work, challenge yourself daily

Other student questions
- Do you often find yourself splitting hairs over life matters?
Who is familiar with the idioms "splitting hairs" ? Splitting hairs = to discuss, argue, hang out in the trivial details of something. Imagine if you guys decide to split a strand of hair into small pieces... How relevant would that be? Not at all right? So whenever we discuss about trivial, unimportant matters, we are splitting hairs (over something)
Best answer
Often, it's used in an argument. When one person keeps insisting on a trivial detail above the main argument. It can be a response to frustration.

My student is used to saying (I have ants in my pants) each time I ask her present something, she is a good presenter, always delivers the goods but never appreciates herself.
- Beloved students, how comfortable do you feel with small talk in English?
Coffee talk, small talk, chit chat... Whatever we call it, trivial conversation plays a key role in communication. How comfortable are you guys with this particular type of conversation?
Best answer
I see no problem in that. It can be useful especially you're networking and you wanna break the ice.
