Abstract:

As educators, we are charged with the responsibility of imparting knowledge to students of diverse backgrounds and capabilities. Now more than ever, we are tasked with the responsibility of guiding students on their academic journey, ensuring they become worthwhile citizens amidst the COVID -19 pandemic.
