摘要
The suspension of face-to-face classes due to the Covid-19 pandemic may represent a before and after for education in ge-neral. Some authors have called distance classes "the great experiment" because nobody knew what would happen when the entire formal education system in the world had to resort to technology to avoid collapsing. This qualitative study presents the results of ten semi-structured interviews conducted with English teachers at the higher education level in the northeastern region of the state of Puebla in Mexico. The information collected was analyzed with the support of the Atlas Ti software for qualitative data. The objective of this study was to investigate the perceptions that English teachers have regarding their process of adapting to non-face-to-face classes during the Covid-19 pandemic. The teachers report that they experienced difficulties related to schedules, technological infrastructure and appropriate methodologies for online English classes and even physical discomfort. However, they consider that despite the difficulties, this situation has also represented growth for them as English teachers.
