Hi readers of Teaching Titans! Today, I’ll be talking about a interview I recently had with my 8th grade English teacher, Ms.Dirk of Hercules middle school. I just asked 5 simple questions about her thoughts on the current situation schools around the world are going through with Covid-19.

Question and Answer #1

Q: What do you like more, distance learning or in person learning? Why?

A: I like in person learning because I get to talk to my students more.

Question and Answer #2

Q: Whats the biggest challenge of distance learning? Why?

A: The amount of work. I have to learn the technology, I have so much planning to do. I have more students than I usually do. It is just a lot!

Question and Answer #3

Q: What do you dislike the most about distance learning? Why?

A: I wish my kids and I could interact more.

Question and Answer #4

Q: What do you like about distance learning the most? Why?

A: I like that it offers kids more freedom to be on their own schedule. I try to give kids at least 24 hours for assignments so that night owls and early birds can work at their best time.

Question and Answer #5

Q: When do you think we will go back to in person school?

A: I don’t see us going back until 21-22 school year. I just don’t see how they can keep us safe.

Well, that’s the interview about the current situation schools around the world are going through. Thanks for reading!
