At 17 I had my son & lots of people distanced themselves. Many thought I wouldn’t have a successful life, I wouldn’t even graduate high school.

I’m about to graduate with my masters & teaching credentials in a month, & start my career as a teacher in the fall @ 24 😉

Tell me about a time someone told you that you could not do something and you went ahead and succeeded out of spite.

[Karen Alvarado @kaly95]

Always love coming back to campus, even if it’s stressful 😭

Breaking— San Joaquin County’s largest school district, @StocktonUnified is canceling classes Monday as rain is expected to bring flooding risks. District officials tell me they’ll decide tomorrow on whether to cancel classes Tuesday as well.

@Nsousanis Not sure what you have access to at the university, but our district so kindly got all of us 180 degree cameras that would either zoom into us or expand depending on where it detected us so that we didn’t have to move with a laptop in hand. 🤷🏽‍♀️😬

[Karen Alvarado @kaly95]

@Nsousanis When I’m on zoom, I will share screen to the projector screen so the students online can see what I am talking about. I also make sure that the settings on my computer screen is set to extend so I can use that for my notes or see what I’ll be talking about next.

[Karen Alvarado @kaly95]

@Nsousanis & a set camera some where in the room, or on you. On zoom you can record & just upload to whatever website used! We use Google Classroom a lot. It also helps in future classes to keep that documented for reference.

[Karen Alvarado @kaly95]

@Nsousanis More than one screen & being able to extend the screens! One to project your slides w/in person students + share screen on zoom. The other to keep track of the chat & other materials. A wireless mic that is connected to the zoom call so they can hear you.

[Karen Alvarado @kaly95]

@rwnprz @CarMax @Carvana Duuuude… yeah. Don’t recommend. I’m going on to 1.5 months. They “bought” my car and STILL haven’t been able to do my payoff. I’ve just gotten “oh yeah we’ll over night it” y nada! Never again.

[Karen Alvarado @kaly95]

Hi @CarMax, how or where can I submit a formal complaint? I hate to be this person, but I’ve been contacting the store I went to and I have gotten no solution to my problem. It’s been 3 weeks.

[Karen Alvarado @kaly95]

@Nsousanis Thanks!! We’re glad to be feeling better! Hope you are all doing well ☺️

[Karen Alvarado @kaly95]

Since we’ve been in isolation since last weekend, I may have had some time to work on this puzzle…
