Abstract
This paper is conceptual, as it is based on literature of how Indigenous ways of education and learning can improve learner’s outcome in post pandemic era. The aim is to provide resources and “know how,” for teachers and other stake holders in educational milieu, in order to enable them to teach for equity and social justice. Its aim is also to empower teachers and other stake holders to teach effectively in ways that all students in (our) classrooms regardless of cultural backgrounds or religious affiliations could thrive. In the past, the matter of immigration and other language acquisition were simple and yet complicated; everyone was an immigrant to the United States. More than 250 years later a language has proven itself dominant in a new world, English; and tradition can no longer solve our educational issue.
