<span style="font-size:12.0pt;color:black;mso-fareast-language:DE-AT">We are writing to invite you to take part in an online survey about your psychological and social experiences during this period of the coronavirus pandemic. The aim of this research is to
better understand the ongoing effects of teaching during the pandemic on teachers’ health and wellbeing. As some of you may know, we conducted initial research in April, and this is a follow-up study to understand how teachers are experiencing the situation
now and across time. The survey is completely anonymous and your participation is voluntary. It will take 10-15 minutes to complete.
