Abstract

Distance education is a well-known type of education, which is conducted when students do not have the chance or time to attend school physically. With the Covid 19 pandemic, distance education has come to the fore under the name of emergency remote education. This study’s ultimate purpose is to explore the experienced emergency English language remote education process and compare the private and state universities from the perspectives of tertiary instructors. To take a photograph of the novel emergency remote education, the opinions of one hundred and thirty-four English language instructors who have been working for English preparatory programs at universities’ schools of foreign languages were asked. To collect the data, instructors were given a questionnaire. After the data collection, items were divided into 5 groups such as online education, instructors’ adaptation to online education, university support, learners, and instructors’ online course. Then each question was examined through SPSS. The means were found to see the highest value each item had. Also, the answers of both university instructors were compared using chi- square and the items which show a statistically significant difference were presented in the study. As a result, it was found that both university instructors have similar ideas about the emergency remote teaching during the Covid- 19.
