I find Jamboard to be a great tool for supporting classroom activities. While I also use other Google tools such as presentations and Google Docs, I feel more comfortable working on my computer rather than online. Sometimes, I believe that my computer offers more features than the online versions. However, I particularly enjoy working with Jamboard. I am also a frequent user of Google Meet and appreciate the possibilities of combining these two tools.

What is most valuable?
What needs improvement?
There are some areas that I would like to improve, but I need to thoroughly evaluate and determine which skills or tools will be most useful for me.
I am aware that Google offers numerous other tools, some of which I have been introduced to in the past, but I have not used them because they were not relevant to my needs at the time. Occasionally, I may explore these tools, but I do not always find them applicable to my work.
While it is not directly related to Google Classroom, I have noticed some differences between using Google Docs, Google Presentations, and Google Slides compared to Microsoft PowerPoint.

What other advice do I have?
I completed my CV two months ago.
I teach English and work as a translator.
I have worked for twenty years in a company, and I worked on the SAP project for the different experiences I have had with IT.
I was employed at a multinational corporation, where I was assigned to work in the United States for a year. During my tenure, I was stationed in the PMO department, handling various projects. I collaborated with Indian consultants, including one who specialized in sales and execution, and mentored me in configuring SAP. However, this was a while back, and the project eventually stopped, prompting me to resign. Through my experience in working with PMOs, I have gained a solid understanding of their operations, as well as basic SAP functions such as generating purchase orders. Nonetheless, I lack proficiency in system configuration, making it difficult to demonstrate my competency in this area.
I would rate Google Classroom a ten out of ten.
