December year 2019 when an virus was discovered that infected thousands of individuals on Wuhan, China. It was first called the NCoV or “novel corona virus” and was soon named COVID 19 or the Corona Virus Disease 19. The first case of the virus was recorded on our country last 30th of January year 2020 and since then, the virus started to spread on thousands of Filipinos. This affect every sector of living we live on and one of that is the Sector of Education all over the world.
As a teacher in this time of pandemic, I observe and see the reality and the importance of teaching quality education despite this pandemic because we need to educate our people or our students because every knowledge will affect themselves and will affect us as a Society.
But despite that we can feel that there are a lot of struggles that we are facing in teaching the youth.
This pandemic brings us to many struggles. One of those is the senior teacher that may have a hard time understanding the technicalities of our distance learning via Online but we can see that they are doing their best for them to teach and do their duly obligation. Another Problem was the lack of stable internet in some area, many of our students experiencing it but I personally believe that many of our co teacher experience it as well especially in rural areas or the places that are far from the cities, And because of this problems another problem may rise as we continue the quality of learning that we give to our students can be poor because of the problem that the students and teachers face in this time of distance learning in this time of pandemic.
In spite of this problems as an educator of our society we must unite and look and in the positive sides and do our duly obligations on time for us to inspire our students that there are hope in this time of crisis as the bible says “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand” -Isaiah 41:10. Let us all fulfill our duties for this society and for the future, Surpass different struggles in this time of pandemic, and let us all give quality education! LONG LIVE EDUCATORS!
