Transcripts
Hi i'm Jennifer Carter and thank you for joining me on a podcast for parents, teachers and administrators. Today's conversation should be a good one and i'm sure it's something on your mind so let's get to it.
Thanks you guys for joining me on the podcast and thanks for inspiring what I think will be a lively conversation about distance learning. If you guys could just introduce yourselves,
I'm Nana Lolachi i've worked in different capacities in schools, I've been a teacher of different grades and currently i'm working as a coordinator so really working with targeted student populations, students who are english learners and really seeing the administrative side of working in a school too for the first time. I'm a mom of two boys.
My name is Mahdis Keshavarz and i am a mom of a little boy as well as a first grader, um and he is in school here in Los Angeles and I'm working from home running two companies called the Make Agency and Polite Society and trying to juggle homeschooling parenting, momming, wifing, living, notice my self-care comes last in that list as I'm sure you women can relate to.
Absolutely so you know actually Mahdis you put up a Facebook post that caught my attention, so can you just share a little bit about what the what you said in that post and you know we can go from there.
Well I shared a post, uh talking a little bit about what's being asked of teachers, um and it was it kind of in response to so much of what I see online and other conversations of kind of these demands for us to get our kids back into school which, i am all for and I want that to happen but i think that sometimes In that trajectory one of the things that i've noticed is a lot of times those moments of abdication of parenting, that happen are highlighted in this pandemic and some of the things that we're easily able to slide and kind of put on teachers to deal with over the course of the day we're not able to do in the year 2020 and i think that that's made for really difficult encounters with parenting but also for me it's been really uncomfortable to see how much more is being asked of educators that seem outside of what is reasonable and so...
