Description

With most research mainly done on the challenges of students in online learning, this study is conducted to go to the personal level of struggles of teachers during the shift of teaching methods from traditional to online. Teachers from different countries (Ghana, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, the Philippines, Japan, and Pakistan) were personally interviewed about the challenges they encountered in their journey in online teaching. Using the qualitative analysis of data collected, this research presents a thematic organization of unique challenges to each participant. The results can be personal and validating to the teachers in the same situation until now.
