Abstract

The purpose of the study was to look into the stressors that preservice teachers, specifically from a teacher education program in East Tennessee, have faced due to the COVID-19 virus and how they handled it. The chosen participants of this study will be interviewed about their own personal experiences and elaborate on stressors that range from technology to working with parents during virtual or in-person learning. Overall, the results revealed that preservice teachers mainly had issues with either helping families navigate technology or dealing with technology themselves. Also, the results showed that these educators had not very many issues with obtaining their teaching license. Further research is recommended to learn more about how to cope with this virus while in a school setting.
