Abstract

This research was conducted in the midst of the Covid 19 pandemic that hit the worldwide, including Indonesia, which requires learning English on campus to be done online. The main objective of this research is to explore the students' views on the transition of English learning from face to face to online learning. The current study has been conducted at Pradita University, Serpong Indonesia. Teaching and learning English fully online was carried out for fourteen weeks. Besides conducting the research, the researcher was also the instructor of the online English course. Quantitative research is the primary data used in this study by administering questionnaires to 35 freshman students as the object of the study. Besides the data obtained from the questionnaire, the researcher also conducted a semi-structured interview as secondary data. The results of this study indicate that in general students are not ready to do full online English learning due to several factors including internet connection, an unsupportive learning environment, and class interaction. The participants of the study viewed that learning English online could not be done fully online, on the contrary, it could be done in a blended manner by combining online learning with face to face learning.
