Broadcasting to all breakout rooms

I'm fairly sure it's not possible, but just to be sure - is there any way for the host to create breakout rooms, and continue broadcasting their own video into all of them?  The end result I need is for each participant to be able to see everyone in their own breakout room, plus the host - so that the host can continue presenting to the whole group, while each breakout room is able to talk just to one another. It seems like a setup that would be useful in many situations - but I've just never been able to find a way to do it! Thanks in advance.

    While I know a host can stay in the main room and share a screen to all breakout rooms (bottom of https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/206476313-Managing-Breakout-Rooms) ,  I don't believe there's any way for a host to share their video and audio at this time natively in Zoom. 

     

    You could look into something like Class for Zoom, which is a third party company, so I guess that means it's an add-on. They might let you do that with their enhanced breakout room feature https://www.class.com/blog/class-adds-enhanced-breakout-rooms-to-zoom
