Abstract
The following essay is the product of the analysis of the Venezuelan educational reality after virtual education was put into practice in the time of the pandemic. Hermeneutics is considered a primary element to interpret from one's own experiences what was lived as a teacher in this society. The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic drastically altered all aspects of human life, especially education. Despite this contingency, Venezuelan educational institutions reacted positively, ensuring school continuity. However, this area needs strengthened public policies, since this pandemic exposed the serious consequences of the weakening of this important sector. This health crisis must involve an increase in state investment and develop the technical reconversion that is so badly needed to minimize technological inequality and allow the educational process to be effective. The lived moment allows us to reflect on the criticality of the situation and reminds us how crucial public education is in society to fight against differences and the democratic construction of a common future.
