Teachers opinion
- “I had experienced 2 weeks of online/distance teaching! It was exhausting I had to adapt method, time and tasks in the second week and give the students a timetable to be online with me! This was the problem, because we didn't have the time to adjust the timetables with other teachers or students or school... I used WhatsApp to communicate with children because all of them had cell phone with internet, but not computers available!”
