Students around the globe wish to go back to campus for physical learning as Covid-19 resulted in closure of educational institutes all over the world. Most students are sick of e-learning.
After classroom learning was replaced by online lessons, students are desperate to return to universities/ schools to reunite with their dearly missed teachers and friends. Some told us that they are even thinking about people they were not very close with, or they never thought they would miss. Here are some endearing and heartfelt confessions from a few students at American university in the Emirates whom we interviewed.
“I miss my friends so much. They were like a chosen family for me. I miss sitting with them in the cafeteria during free time, there were times when I found them a bit annoying but now I realize how important those random gossip sessions were and of course I miss the college events and all the fun we used to have”.
-Sara Hussein (Student at AUE)
“At first, I really didn’t think I would miss anyone in particular because being an introvert I enjoy my alone time. But overtime I realized how much I miss my teachers and friends especially my literature teacher who I thought was just too strict back in the days. But surprisingly I miss His class so much and all the stories he told us”.
-Fahad al Rashid (student at AUE)
After interviewing a number of students we came to know that most students definitely want to go back to campus soon and do not want to continue the online studies.
