E-Learning is Kicking My Butt

Dealing with the Coronavirus circumstances, has given me an even greater appreciation for our teachers.

For the last 4 days, I’ve become an e-learning instructor. Finn and I wake up at about 8:00am and go to sign into his e-learning site.

Then, I inform him that we need to do his homework. Then he’ll say, “OOOHHH DAD, I don’t want to do it. ITS BORING!!!” Then I reply, “I don’t care if it’s boring. I do things every day that are boring. It’s a part of life.”

Then he lowers his arms and head and reluctantly walks over to the table. After I read his assigned homework, I tell him we need to practice reading. “OOHH. I don’t want to. It’s stupid.” he replies. The first couple of days was brutal. He was resisting me every step of the way. And to tell you the truth, I was at my wits end. But I kept going at it, and it gets easier.

Anything new is tough in the beginning. Nothing has ever come easy for me. I feel that everything that I’ve done has always been hard, no matter how complicated or simple it may seem. It’s the way my entire life has gone.

I look back at difficult things that I’ve gone through, and every time, it worked out.

Most of the times, I look back with a little nostalgia. As to how I got through that.

These are the moments that will show YOU how resilient you truly are. That is how CONFIDENCE is built.

I am no longer thinking about why this is happening, I’m focusing on what we need to do to get through this, no matter what.
