I think the movement towards Distanced Learning in light of the Covid-19 Pandemic can ironically overlook the importance of pastoral support as a direct link to fostering engagement - a very good read on the argument that not every teacher/student interaction need be directly related to curricula

Once I read this article it really made me relate. It is important to focus on the simple little things. Many times the smallest things make the biggest impacts, which in this case would be simply taking a couple of minutes to make the connection with the learners. As an educator I always tried engaging students. Praise is powerful. Learners need to feel connected.

While this is nothing new to most educators, I did like the way that it stressed relationships over all else. In the time of COVID, this has become a priority. Good teachers have always known that connecting to your students is important. The challenge is how to do that when you don't "see" them in person every day as you can't judge as easily when things are off or something is obviously troubling a student.
