My Students

I am responsible for 20 energetic and sweet 1st graders' education in Orlando, FL. My students come from different backgrounds and ethnic groups. Regardless where they come from, they all have the intrinsic motivation to learn. My desire is to see my students apply what they learned from me to their own lives. However, with the limited resources, I feel like my hands are tied.

My Project

Learning and teaching from home becoming a new normal in 2020. There is no exception with my first grade class. However, with the so-so laptop my school issued to me, my virtual class has been getting so-so result. Low speed, frozen images, missing audio, and periodically shut down all preventing my first graders getting the education that they deserved.

A functional laptop will enable my first grade virtual class run smoothly without any technical issues.

Not matter how good my presentations or how interesting the contents are, the students couldn't receive them without me having a up-to-date laptop to communicate to them.
