Really appreciate the sentiments shared in this tweet and the attached article was really helpful too.
As an expat it’s hard to imagine a more blessed life. Living in diff places let’s you exp cultures in a way traveling doesn’t. This pandemic howev highlights the reality...the world is large & isolating esp. when you can’t just “pop home” for a visit! huffpost.com/entry/coronavir…

The way that international teachers have coped with the Covid crisis – in countries far from home – banishes the misconception that international teaching is somehow a soft option, writes @COBIS_CEO

A5 I think I am getting better at connecting with students virtually, giving them feedback and keeping them motivated from a distance. I still need to work on the nuts and bolts of building our year-level website #AfricaEd
A4 I had never used Screencastify before, and had lots of fun using it to record lesson presentations for our students. #AfricaEd
A3 Make work at least as engaging and exciting as it is in the classroom. Build stronger communication with students via Google Meets, Zoom, email, whatever works. Be understanding of students' unique personal contexts #AfricaEd
A2 I think the most important thing is to focus on relationship building, rather than steaming ahead with academics. This is a very difficult time for everyone, and students and adults need to feel safe and cared for before they can learn #AfricaEd

A1 I am currently working in Malawi, and we started the new school year with distance learning. I am enjoying the challenge of starting a new year online! #AfricaEd

Really great blog post about teaching spelling.
I haven't read a blog this thorough and yet practical in a long time. If you teach spelling, this is a MUST-read.
Forget the "look/say/cover/check" and other spelling techniques. They are ineffective. howtoteachreading.org.uk/the… by @GovTutor

Very happy to see the decisive actions being taken by #issedu to promote diversity in international school recruitment.
