I'm so sorry too say this so. It's simply because there's no exact vaccine yet, and the covid patients now reach 20 million plus. Ph covid case also soars high. This pandemic alone gives troubles especially in my case as a teacher. It's so laborious teaching online. In the university where I'm teaching, we do series of webinars that hamper my freedom to do things that make me happy. Classes start August 24 and webinars end August 20.The University where I'm in holds classes in ustep-via Amazon Cloud. There are so many portals, so difficult, but I have to make it right. I missed my yesterday. How are you all this time? How I like to be always here with you. Take care all, keep safe. I love you my friends. I'm sending you my virtual hugs

Virtual hugs back to you! I know it's not easy for you or any of us. My grandkids will be doing online schooling again, too. I hope it gets easier for you to teach online. Most universities are doing it here, too.

@louievill,Thanks Louie, you too and family take care of yourselves. I felt tired and frustrated of the virus. I keep on updating thru the site worldometer that you gave. It's truly scary, it seems the end of humanity.

@cacay1 surviving is the only option unless you want to succumb to the situation which isn't good at all.

I know what you mean, I hope it's just a case where getting to a computer is hard and that she will eventually be back.

@pandeydeependra, yes I also heard in TV. Let's hope that vaccine is the answer to end the pandemic. Life isn't the same this time.

@cacay1 It is surely a mess if your student do not have the right instruments for online schooling. The government here is supplying a laptop to all students who will have to stay at home and do online classes.

@LadyDuck, I missed life with less burden in teaching. I dismissed the other school, my part time shool yet ignored my request. The reason is in that school, there are so many part time, retirees and lack know how on computer manipulation. There are so many of them, I coached and felt happy for my successful endeavor. I just asked 3 subjects to teach in that part time college. Most students lack high definition gadget, it's hard to teach them. Their answers were mostly submitted in fb messenger, texts thru cellular phone. Sometimes I called them to present their answer. It's so laborious.

It is really a double burden for the teachers; also for students. Nothing can replace the face-to-face way of teaching/interacting.
