After almost a year of online education due to the late
Covid19 pandemic, different issues and challenges have arisen. Therefore,
investigating and studying such issues became the need of the hour. Coronavirus
Pandemic has shaded its challenges on the process of teaching/learning the
English language. From their own experience with their classes, researchers
decided to conduct this survey to find out what motivates the learners during
the online classes and what does not.
The survey was carried out through a questionnaire consists
of 20 MCQ and two open-ended questions. After analyzing the students’
responses, the results show that most of the students felt less motivated to
learn online than in face-to-face classes. The interestingly positive responses
regarding the availability of technology and the internet led the researchers
to assume that student’s/teacher’s ideology could be the reason behind the
declined level of motivation among the students. More studies focusing on the
teaching/learning ideology among students and
teachers are highly recommended. Keywords: Corona virus

attitude.
