Teachers all over the world are being asked to redefine the way they work to respond to the challenges of COVID-19 and massive online teaching for hundreds of students in quarantine. In this presentation, we will first identify some potential barriers both teachers and students may face in the new learning environment, based on Neuroscience and research evidence. Then we will introduce a number of brain-friendly strategies that will surely help young and adult learners to be successful while experiencing distance language learning. Come join me and let us uncover together some of the best advice the science of the brain wants to share at one of the most demanding moments educators have to face.
