Default Getting help from a coach ghosting you question

Learning from videos just ins't helping me so I decided to get a coach, is it safe to let them ghost you via a program like TeamViewer where they can watch your PC?

Is there any risk at all that they have access to your accounts or personal information? Once you end the session can you be sure they have not logged back on to watch what you are doing (typing passwords, etc...)?

Basically, is it safe or is there a better way?

Thanks

I do this all the time, usually a bunch of us like 6-7 people get on every night and play. If one of us goes deep the others open the table and give advice, I dont think teamviewer is really needed and you can easily just say what you have.

Yeah it's safe. Just turn off teamviewer when you don't want other people to spy on you. Also use a firewall just in case, but you sound paranoid enough that you probably already have that.

just make sure that you have things set so they cant have remote control of your comp and you'll be fine.
