In August 2021, the pandemic got more serious in my hometown and students stopped going to school.

I needed to continue teaching.
and my students had to gain knowledge for entrance exam and future jobs.

I started to learn how to use some softwares such as Zoom; Google Meet, and Microsoft team.
I also set up some extra classes for my students.

I chose google meet because it is free and easy to use

My first class started at 17: 15 o'clock; students and I were on google meet. Everything was ready; I began sharing the screen but it didn't work. I couldn't share the screen. I think it last more than 10 minutes.

Suddenly I thought of my colleague - an IT teacher, I phoned him for help. Luckily, he answered the phone and asked me to call him back via zalo so that he could see my laptop. He showed me the way to start it and it worked well as I expected.

My teaching went well until the end of the lesson.

Now I have learned that calm, honesty, and patience are among key qualities I need to be successful.

Nice job, Mr. An! I think this is a great story and it highlights all 8-points of the story arc approach. What are some other challenges you faced teaching online? I like the pics you added to visualize your story here.

1. It is not good for our health. First, we have problems reading because our eyes get affected. We have to wear glasses. Second common problem is with our backbone. We have to see doctors. It is hurting if we sit in front of computers for a long time.
2. It is difficult for teachers to control/ observe what students are doing during the lessons. They may play games/ watch films or do other things instead of focusing on the lectures. Some of them get addicted to games/ get crazy. As a result, they need help from doctors. These are two main downsides I have learnt from teaching online.
