Modes of teaching

I am from the UAE where VPN's are blocked so it is difficult for me to study using Skype or any 3rd party video chats. What other options can we have for using a similar platform? The iTalki classroom is there but supposedly you cannot use it on a tablet or mobile. What option do we have to study on a tablet as my laptop is old and rarely used. I usually use my mobile and tablet.

Also, I love to keep notes of my previous class for revision. Can you do that with iTalkie Classroom?

I'm really surprised UAE blocked Skype as well. When did this happen, Meherunnissa?

I only heard about blocking whatsApp audio calls in UAE and some other GCC countries.

Have you ever tried Hangouts? It's an audio and video chat tool connected to your gmail.

Unfortunately I have never used italki classroom, not as a teacher nor as a student! So I 

can't tell you anything about it.

https://www.rabb.it ; use this website. Allows voice chat/video chat in one room with multiple people. And it has a browser mode which allows you to watch anything together with people. By putting in a link. So this website can be great for a teaching tool
 
I personally use it to watch movies with my friends from halfway across the world. You can also access any blocked website from here as well.

If you are in UAE, then why don't you try it out right now?

It works in Pakistan, where I live. I can't say for the UAE though. Never been there?
