Room 112: Maria Sosnovska : "Mindfulness and Teaching English in Tough Times" - (TECH, IntC)
February, 24 has changed Ukrainian students' life forever, as this has changed everything. On this day I started teaching people who are stressed, scared or displaced. It comes as no surprise, that I have not felt safe since that day either, as I have never been working in the circumstances like that before. Therefore, dealing with that scale of stress became a huge challenge for me and for my students. To make things worse we returned to distance learning after two days in schools. So, we again were working online. So, I want to share the ways: what and how we did it, how we not only survived but kept smiling and kept improving our English practicing mindfulness, using technology and developing our imagination.
