Who has two iPad pros?

I don’t do any classroom teaching... I’m 100 percent online, 1 on 1. So that’s why I lean on the iPads so heavily. I’m a lawyer by trade, but not practicing. I prepare students to take the LSAT and the bar exam.

Interesting. I am moving in that direction too. I am doing a lot of online tutoring these days as a side job and hope to make that a full time job in the future. I have been using my iPad and zoom as the main meeting platform. I also use keynote live on occasion.

Any specific tools you use ?

It depends on how I have my students— if it’s through a particular company, I use their proprietary platform. If it is through the little company started by one of my law school classmates, I just use FaceTime or Skype or Google Hangouts and a browser-based whiteboard. I haven’t ever looked at zoom— does it have a whiteboard in the free subscription?

I use a paid subscription - it’s relatively inexpensive I believe. The small private tutoring group I am working with pays for it. The collaborative white board is great. There are some other nifty features too.
 
12.9 for magazine reading. Feels almost like reading the real thing. And a Magster subscription deal has saved me heaps on buying magazines :)

11" used at work for note taking. Better than paper now I've worked out an app and workflow that suits my needs (NoteShelf 2).

I have both sizes of the 2nd generation. I use them side by side to have more room to work on. Often using one as a reference monitor or to run two instances of the same app. I use Universal Clipboard and AirDrop to send info between the two iPads. Attached is a photo of my desk setup. I have a Bluetooth keyboard that lets me quickly jump between the 2 iPads.

I have to figure out Airdrop between 2 tablets. Works with iPhone to iPad....

MIne is setup similarity too. I have 12.9s 2015 & 2018. I have them side by side. I have a Logitech keyboard below them on a roll out keyboard shelf (it can switch between 3 devices). I have been using my old one for email and browsing, but I am trying to do more browsing on the new one. Chrome keeps updating every tab with the old one. So it probably is showing it’s life with doing a lot of heavy browsing etc.

I am using them like when I had dual monitors on my computer. By the way, these are my computer. I am doing graphic design primarily on the new one. I like being able to browse thru my files or see what I am making on my older one, while working on the new one.

I am not planning on getting rid of my old one, they will only give me about $300 for it, I can’t replace it for that price. It is more useful to me now anyways. Also if for some reason, one of my kids wanted to use it for drawing etc - I will give it to them....
 
I own 5 but only use 3 at a time at home. The 3 are attached to a microphone stand.

I carry 2 iPads to the office, 2015 12.9” and the new 2018 12.9”.

I’m considering another 2018 12.9”. It’s a great machine.
