Abstract

This study aimed to describe the obstacles experienced by a teacher and students towards online English teaching and learning activities during the Covid-19 pandemic at SMA Negeri 11 Solok Selatan. In this study, the researcher used a descriptive quantitative technique. In obtaining data, the researcher used a questionnaire and an interview. In this study, questionnaires were given to the teacher and students in printouts, while interviews were conducted online via WhatsApp to obtain more information from respondents. The sample was 1 English teacher and 19 students in class XI and XII at SMAN 11 Solok Selatan. The teacher was given 15 questions, while the students were given 30 questions. The results of the research showed that a teacher faced several obstacles in online learning, such as the lack of mastery of technology, so it was difficult to create teaching methods that students could easily understand. In addition, the most dominant obstacle was the internet network which often experiences disturbances. In addition, most students also faced almost the same obstacles regarding a bad internet network, making it difficult to take part in learning English online. However, the teacher was able to overcome some of these obstacles in online learning by providing adequate learning tools and also by learning the application features needed in the process of teaching English. Meanwhile the students were able to overcome the obstacles by having self-awareness, being active in learning English online, creating a comfortable learning atmosphere for themself, doing and sending English assignments on time.
