As a former flight attendant and a Swiss-trained chef, you might wonder why she does what she does. Well, I wondered. So, I asked, and here’s her touching answer:

The Challenges Of Home Schooling

With the current situation, kids are compelled to learn from home. That’s very challenging, not just for the kids but for the parents as well.

It’s worth noting that some public schools are not doing online classes. Instead, they require parents to come to school to gather the learning materials for their kids. They then bring home the learning materials and end being the teachers of their kids.
