Abstract
The pandemic is a great source of stories. Through them, we have seen disparity in several areas such as health care. Similarly, in education, there are several new tales that were released. The field of education is a constant data seeking entity, however, we now have some very unusual data. This study creatively acknowledges the stories the COVID 19 pandemic told to us by and about English Language Learners. This gives us insight to create problem solving strategies as well as consider what education forecast may look like. This focused discussion looks at qualitative data collected through the interview method and analyzed to extract authentic trends. The interviewees are educational professionals who have directly instructed English Language Learners before and during the Covid 19 pandemic. There is room for conference attendees to discuss and expand the scope of the research.
