Hi there,
I have a couple of students who is more interested in the subject line, can
someone share me or list out some or all the differences between JAWS and
NVDA screen reader when it comes to Accessibility/Working with both the
screen readers? I would be Very much thankful.
Regards,
Allyssa.

Hi Allyssa,
The following guide might be useful to them:
Switching From JAWS To NVDA
The purpose of this guide, which continues to receive updates, is to assist users of JAWS (Job Access With Speech) in switching to the open-source screen reader NVDA (NonVisual Desktop Access) with ease. It assumes prior knowledge of JAWS and that you are proficient in its use. It is not intended to be a replacement of the included user guide, but as a means to make NVDA seem less daunting:
