About this Webinar
Whether you’re a new, occasional, or long-term teacher, today’s classrooms come with unprecedented challenges. But author-educators Amanda Yuill and Diane Vetter have the tips and tools you need to come together as a community, and make teaching simpler, smoother, and more joyful.

When classrooms are virtual and we’re teaching at a distance, it can be more difficult than ever to connect with students — especially for new and substitute teachers. Experienced occasional teacher Amanda Yuill will pull from her book, Substitute Teaching?, to help you see the humour in challenging situations, and to offer quick, simple ways to engage students in everything you do.

Now, more than ever, mentoring each other and forming a strong professional community is vitally important to successful teaching. A long time educator and co-author of Mentoring Each Other, Diane Vetter will provide practical strategies to use with professional friends and mentors as we navigate day-to-day challenges in this new reality.
