    So basically, 2020 was just the beginning and the world's educational systems are foked for at least another year.

    To be American for a second, this is gonna get real old pretty damn soon.

    I'm not really convinced e-school is really "learning", it's more just going through the motions to keep parents happy. Another year where Cambridge Checkpoint gets canceled, you would have thought one of the largest educational companies could get something online up and running.

    How can I possibly give an answer right now?

    Erm, that's how the international school teaching job market works.

    I guess it is better than nothing though. The ones that do well with online and are motivated will gain some learning, but the majority I'd say will be still behind next year.

    I don't think I'll take the job because of the uncertainty with Covid. I'm sure i'll hear from them next year as this is the second year they asked me to teach there. Last year I got a one year contract job here, so I stayed.

    Or they just won’t give you any more second chances.

    Looking very unlikely that we will be going back until September, and even that is up in the air somewhat. Back to e-school today and if I am totally honest it is challenging to find the enthusiasm for the start of term. That hasn't happened in 13 years, it's certainly a strange time to be alive.
