a) Rooms should be fairly small
b) Sound dampening with carpeting, curtains, furniture - Wired (Ethernet cable) internet connection recommended, but if unavailable, a strong Wi-Fi connection
- Good headset with microphone close to mouth BUT away from direct line of mouth to reduce “pops”. Avoid using default built-in microphone on the computer.
