Post COVID-19 education: What does it mean for ESL teaching?

Session Description

The year 2020 was a full year of the COVID-19 pandemic. We as educators adapted to online teaching via multiple platforms to adjust to a new way of teaching. Many changes including student, peer, teacher interaction, or learning different technology, adjusting to each school’s online system become a big challenge for many teachers especially in the ESL area. Language teaching wasn't the same as before, especially for college professors and instructors. During the pandemic era, the education format has changed and shifted toward online learning. This will still remain as a main educational system during the 2021 year. Is it possible to make language learning meaningful and educational for the students and the teachers? This presentation will introduce how a semester of teaching ESL students through multiple online platforms can enhance their learning abilities and guide the audience how to structure the videos for meaningful language learning.
