The pandemic has brought on real challenges for both teachers and students. Teachers and students everywhere had to go to school online and are learning how to use technology more than ever. Being a teacher, I had to find effective digital programs, learn how to use Zoom and Microsoft Teams, and figure out how to keep my students engaged when teaching them. In October, teachers moved back into the school building where many of us are teaching both students physically in the classroom and students virtually simultaneously. This has been another hurdle for teachers to overcome. During these challenging times, I realized that the computer I am using is not as effective because when meeting my students on Zoom, I found that I am lagging and they are having a hard time hearing me. This is why I am asking for a more powerful laptop.
By getting a more powerful and reliable computer, then I can implement digital tools into my virtual classrooms, meet with my students on Zoom without lagging, create video content for teaching, communicate with both students and parents, and find valuable digital resources and tools. By having an effective laptop, I will ensure that my students will benefit from my instruction during my teaching. I will better assist them both synchronous and asynchronous so they will acquire the necessary reading, writing, vocabulary, and grammar skills they need to be successful. Many of my students struggle with their reading and many of them are not native English speakers, while others are advance and gifted learners. Having this wide range of learners makes it imperative that I am effective and prepared. Please help me with getting a more powerful and reliable computer so I am a more impactful English Language Arts teacher.
