Komal Kaur, who came as an immigrant herself has been a Professor and teaching classes at Conestoga College (Kitchener) for almost half a decade now. She delivers Web Development classes to a diverse set of students every year and shares her experience of teaching such a diversified audience.
From being a student in India to becoming a Teacher in Canada, she talks about her adventurous journey, unexpected turns, the role of Sangat and how the process of Virtual Teaching went through the pandemic.
Listen it from a teacher's perspective for how Chalk-Blackboards changed into Whiteboard projector screens, textbooks changed into student portals and how the mindset of treating Teacher as a Guru has evolved over time.
