Examples of Great Teaching During the Pandemic

How successfully have you and your school handled the lockdown situation? Menachem Moscovitz believes that even with online teaching you can teach a great deal of syllabus to the students. Moving on we have been observing what online teaching feels like during the pandemic and we bring you examples of some genius teacher from all over the world that are fantastically doing their job amidst all the chaos that is been going around

The first example is from Angus, Scotland. Angus is one of the 32 local government council areas of Scotland, a registration county, and a lieutenant fancy area. Jen Rankin runs the Creative Academy of Performing Arts Angus (CAPA).

She posted a video on the dance group’s Facebook page, with pupils singing lines each from the song Rainbows, by Kacey Musgraves. In her post, she says, “I wanted to do something really special with our students during this difficult time and pay tribute to everyone who is struggling through the hardship.”

“I have been working on this lovely project for a few weeks now and I hope that you all enjoy the sentiment behind the song. From me and my little darlings to you and yours. A big thank you to Garry Morrison for helping me with the video.” We need more teachers as Jen Rankin Menachem says. He was impressed by the kids' enthusiasm.

This second example is from Frisco, Texas. Teachers from an elementary school in Frisco, TX, cheered up some students by parading through their neighborhood, honking and waving from their cars during this struggling time.

And an elementary school teacher in Mesquite, TX, drove to each of her students’ homes to check on them -- from a safe distance -- and remind them how much she misses them.


Everyone is suffering in their way, Menachem Moscovitz shares that all of us have to be strong and stand with each other at a time like this. Teachers can inspire students and their families with their passion for work and dedication. We should try to be there for each other.
