Annotation Cursor Freezes

When my teacher shares her screen, I am able to enter and use annotation. About 30 minutes later, the annotation cursor freezes in the lower left corner of the screen. The meeting continues normally, but my cursor stays stuck. I am using a MacBook Pro. Is there anything I can do to fix this so I can participate in class? Thanks!

To recover the cursor, you have two options: choose command+tab to switch your application to the Zoom app. Doing so will then make your cursor visible again. Either close the Annotate tool, or continue annotating, as needed.
