Teaching With Covid: Within and Without

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic that was initially believed to be a health crisis not only encouraged most organizations to revisit and re-adjust their working mode and style but also brought drastic changes into the work of educational institutions. The onset of pandemic paved ways for modern technologies and classroom routines to make language teaching compliant with certain preventive measures. Preliminary research into the successes and failures earned throughout online teaching in Armenia may provide a solid background for identifying which language teaching practices that started during COVID-19 would be retained or dismissed. The paper looks into some instructional changes that might impact the planning and delivery of in-person lessons after the retreat of the pandemic.
