A: Until I retire, hopefully…
Q: What are your expectations this year and plans to re-engage students in learning?
A: My expectations are hopeful and I plan to make class as “normal” as possible.
Q: Do you have any advice for new students this year, since you’re a new teacher yourself?
A: Enjoy every minute and try not to stress about what you can’t control.
Q: Do you feel any pressure to abide by Covid restrictions while re-engaging your students?
A: Absolutely! The longer we all stay healthy, the quicker we can lift more restrictions and get back to normal.
