2# Coach competence
You telling me you can figure out how to bypass the school WiFi restrictions so you can Snapchat, watch videos, and play games all day long. But you can’t figure out how to log into google classroom and do a 30 min assignment?

Screensharing a presentation:
— Miss What (@TeacherTalk2015) April 3, 2020
Me: Ope, too far.
17yo: We can officially say Miss does the same thing in real life as she does online, click change slide too many times.
Me: Yes, but unlike real life, I can mute you online. #onlinelearning #teacherlife
