Simply the best for math

I am remotely teaching maths colleges on a weekly base to two times 150 students, succesfully fastening up my explanations by "simply" writing but as well selecting handy Shapes (Circles, Lines, Arrows, ...) and inserting useful pictures which I pin for better reference. Limnu works like a charm, zoomable, endless, ...after the teaching I share a free golimnu-link with my audience: students find their way to the filled whiteboard/topic to doublecheck on details or just re-reading the content.

PROS

Its intuitive ease of use, no manuals nor help! Given the sudden pandemic in March 2020 over Europe, I lacked my whiteboard-in-the-auditory feeling to teach maths *my way* not bounded or reconditioned by some learning platform or team software. Amongst so many teaching colleagues all over Europe I had to U-turn my approach to offer maths colleges to over 150 English speaking students and again 150 Dutch speaking completely remotely...in 1 weekend. Luckily I came across Limnu: you just create and open your whiteboard in any browser, grab a marker or pen and...off you go. Adviced is having a wacom or alike for better handwriting and sharpers selection of Limnu/shapes, etc. DIY - do try it @home

CONS

Sorry I can not come up with any disadvantage. Honestly, I am but a user (not owning shares or such)

Great tool for teaching students virtually.

PROS

The clean appearance creates less distraction for people observing. I like how much of the computer screen displays the whiteboard. I LOVE how you can move the board when you run out of space on the screen.

CONS

I would like the abiliyt to togel between multiple whiteboards. Similar to multiple desktops. There is a way to link different areas of the larger board together. It works well but I feel multiple whiteboards might be easier to navigate.

Reasons for switching to Limnu

Limnu offers a cleaner apperance that is less distracting. The use of the full screen as a whiteboard is very helpful.

A product to beat all other online whiteboard - with one glaring flaw.

PROS

Limnu's whiteboard collaborating tool is truly a work of art. The functionality is on another level in terms of ease-of-use and intuitive design. The video chat is better than any other similar program as are the drawing features. Even my youngest students love Limnu, and are able to figure out how to use it without any problems whatsoever. I could go on for a few paragraphs about the pros of Limnu. After trying six different products for my virtual tutoring business, Limnu won out by far.

CONS

While the amazing features of Limnu are numerous, there is one glaring flaw that is almost a deal-breaker for myself and other tutors whom I have given referrals to. The Limnu collaboration tool does not offer screen-sharing functionality! This was very surprising to me, given that the whiteboard sets itself apart by having such high-quality features. Screen-sharing is a VERY basic function that is required for any form of collaboration, tutoring included. It's very unfortunate that I need to use an entirely separate program, and was almost enough for me to not use Limnu.

Distance Learning

I have to teach math to student during Google Meetings. The board gives me the ability to teach math so my students can see examples for the concept I am teaching. It allows me to demonstrate examples to answer students questions during my teaching meetings. This makes distance learning manageable.

PROS

The product is easy to use. The virtual board provides control to write math problems and draw models for math problems. I am able to draw straight lines so my students can see a decimal model for tenths and hundredths. I like the multiple color choices and clarity of the color. I like multiple choices of instrument to write with and thickness choice.

CONS

I found the erasing feature difficult to use. I either had eraser times. Or pull a new board or click on the undo several times. My usage for teaching math for only 30 minutes during distance learning it would be better if I could click or use the key to erase every idiom at once.

Reasons for switching to Limnu

Less control over the pen. Not as many color choices and the clarity was terrible. Erasing unwanted idioms took a long time. It did not have the line feature nor the circle and square shape.

Amazing in Education

As an online education coordinator I am able to interact with students at a distance as if they are actually in my class. Tutoring is much easier over the computer using this tool.

PROS

This software makes tutoring and collaboration incredibly easy. I have used it with students and teachers alike. The students are much more engaged because they feel as though they are a part of the presentation and discussion more so than if they were just listening.

CONS

Creating and planning a presentation is not the easiest, but definitely worth the extra time when it comes to presenting.

whiteboard metaphor

It's great and almost duplicates a normal in-class whiteboard experience.

PROS

It's very easy and seamless to use limnu like a whiteboard, with minimal wrangling of the user interface. In particular, finding room to continue writing is extremely easy. This means more work time and fewer interruptions dealing with the software. It doesn't even feel like software.

CONS

I teach high school, and my students have to create limnu accounts to access the whiteboard if they want to view it. I don't see a way to export the contents of a board for sharing with students.

Reasons for switching to Limnu

I saw a blog post about this product and decided to try it, and the experience itself won me over.

Best Whiteboard Software

This is a great tool that I will use every day both in person teaching and online teaching.

PROS

This software is so easy to use. Even my first graders mastered it on the first try.

CONS

I like the video software but it would be nice if you could share your screen within the software. Sometimes it is necessary when online teaching and it is hard to just stop and start another Zoom conference to share something on my computer.

Reasons for switching to Limnu

I was using this software while teaching for Remind 101 online and decided I wanted to use it with my in person first graders.

Smooth transition to online teaching

PROS

When I needed to start teaching online as soon as possible, I appreciated how easy it was with Limnu. The students can learn to use it in 5 minutes and all of them can actively participate during lectures and tutorials.

CONS

The video conferencing room supports only limited number of users. So I had to simultaneously use another tool for audio/video communication when teaching more than 5 students.
