Abstract

This research aims to investigate the problems, the factors causing the problems and the solutions to solve the problems faced by the English lecturers who teach at the non-English study program at Tadulako University during the COVID-19 pandemic. The researcher used a qualitative design with an exploratory and a descriptive approach. Semi-structured interview was chosen to collect the data and it was analysed qualitatively. Three lecturers and nine students were chosen by using quota sampling techniques. As a result, two major categories of English lecturers’ problems were identified: instructors’ problems and learners’ problems. Besides, those problems were caused by some factors that were classified: learners’ factors and technological factors. Meanwhile, the solutions were grouped: pedagogical development and technological support. Therefore, the online teaching instructed by two lecturers did not run well since it lacked preparation and planning. It is suggested that the number of the students need to be reduced since it can bring an efficient and effective teaching learning process as lecturers will be able to apply appropriate teaching methods.
