    Hi Hindurao,

    Thank you for reaching out to this forum. I'm Utkarsh and as a fellow Microsoft user, I'm here and ready to help you today. I am a user like you, this is a user forum and not Microsoft directly.

    I would be more than happy to answer any other questions should you have them.

    If your questions in Teams are not visible to everyone else, including the teacher, it may be because the Q&A feature is set to "private" by the moderator. Here are some steps you can take to ensure that your questions are visible to everyone:

    1. Private questions in Teams are not visible to everyone else because they are designed for one-on-one communication between the person asking the question and the teacher or presenter. Private questions allow participants to ask sensitive or personal questions that they may not feel comfortable asking in a public setting. This feature provides a way for individuals to have private discussions and receive personalized responses without the need for others to see their questions. It helps to maintain confidentiality and privacy in certain situations.
    2. Check the Q&A settings: If the Q&A feature is enabled, check the settings to see if questions are set to "private" or "public." If they are set to "private," the moderator will need to publish your question for it to be visible to everyone else.
    3. Wait for the moderator to publish your question: If your question is set to "private," you will need to wait for the moderator to publish it. Once it is published, your question will be visible to everyone else.

    Ask the moderator to publish your question: If your question is not being published, you can ask the moderator to publish it. They may have missed your question or may not have seen it yet.
