Let's Talk About It: COVID-19 Reflections w/ teacher Alyssa Kopec

Let's Talk About It: Whatever "It" Is

With the beginning of COVID-19 now a year behind us, Olejuru and Paula invite professionals from different sectors to provide their insight on what the year has been like for them, what lessons they have learned, and how they have found ways to cope through it all.

In this first episode of our professional’s reflect series, we are joined by Alyssa Kopec. She is a teacher at St Joesph's Collegiate in Brooks Alberta. During our conversation, Alyssa recounts her experience of becoming a new teacher during the pandemic, and how she uses jokes, lots of them, to keep her students' spirits high.
