Covid-19 has created an unprecedented risk to everyone, mainly children with regards to protection and effected education. Mhrd (Ministry of Human Resource Development) India is continuously training, listening to education experts, making post reopening guidelines but considering the present scenario, a decision regarding reopening is still pending.
At this juncture schools have come up with new online teaching methods, the hard work of teachers needs to be appreciated. On the contrary, we hear comments on teachers- being harsh, spelling errors in writing, poor fluency, and pronunciation. I do not completely agree with this fact nor completely deny it.
I contradict most of the reasons as they were existing before this Pandemic, just in a different form, and will be there in the future also. So nothing about teachers or Parents being exposed, it is only the angle of our viewing needs to be changed.
Students are stressed if anything is prolonged. So teachers need to get well trained with the management of time (limit of class). Teachers need to find an appropriate app for different activities. For example, the teaching app and assessment app are different. So get equipped by getting trained, sharing, and discussing. Be formal as you are in regular classes, so you will not require to reprimand and sound harsh. Believe in parents they will surely support you in case you have a special case discipline issue with a child. Teachers need to be clear about the topic and use different techniques of teaching. Just check different tools that you can use online to make online learning smooth and enthusiastic.
There is no "stress" only success and smile in this teaching-learning environment. We will together build society and groom tomorrows citizens

Is it because:
There are several questions which will give you an answer...
- Are Teachers experts in classroom teaching and struggling to go online?
- Is there Poor connectivity or a lack of devices?
- Are Parents and teachers overdoing things due to online studies with no time limit?
- Did we create unnecessary Peer pressure of performance between teacher to teacher, Parent to Parent, Child to Child?
- Did parent intervention in school activities increase?
- Did we steal the space of students?
- Why we require School social media to show students daily chores or hobbies which they learn in summer?

How to reduce this stress?
I feel parents need to have faith as they had earlier in their schools and hard-working fraternity. We can give some time to teachers so that they can adapt to this new teaching techniques. Give space to students and let them do activities or homework on their own. A parent's partnership is always required for better learning to happen.
