To gain a thorough understanding of the research, this study used</p><p>a sequential explanatory mixed method design. The sequential explanatory mixed</p><p>methods design involved quantitative and qualitative approaches. For quantitative data,</p><p>the response from 130 respondents who answered the questionnaire was used to analyse</p><p>the data using descriptive analysis. The descriptive analysis involves SPSS statistics</p><p>analysis of frequency and percentage. As for qualitative data, a semi-structured</p><p>interview session with five ESL teachers from primary schools in Klang Valley was</p><p>conducted. The data were analysed using thematic analysis in which prominent themes</p><p>were identified. The findings showed that the majority of the primary school ESL</p><p>teachers had neutral positions on virtual teaching and learning. Besides, it revealed that</p><p>neither the teachers agreed nor disagreed with all of the statements. The teachers prefer</p><p>physical classroom teaching and learning. At the same time, teachers were encouraged</p><p>to conduct virtual teaching and learning in future. In addition, the study helps primary</p><p>school ESL teachers overcome challenges and conduct effective virtual teaching and</p><p>learning in a fun and engaging way. It also assists learners in engaging themselves in</p><p>an interesting way to attend virtual classes in a conducive environment. The implication</p><p>of the study is the majority of teachers had a neutral stance on the advantages of using</p><p>online learning in ESL classes but mostly concluded that virtual teaching and learning</p><p>are not advantageous for primary school ESL teachers or students. At the same time,</p><p>teachers are also encouraging virtual teaching and learning in the future. So, ESL</p><p>teachers in primary schools prefer traditional classroom teaching and learning as it is</p><p>more effective and fruitful.</p> 2024 thesis https://ir.upsi.edu.my/detailsg.php?det=12057 https://ir.upsi.edu.my/detailsg.php?det=12057 text eng N/A openAccess Masters Perpustakaan Tuanku Bainun Fakulti Bahasa dan Komunikasi <p>Adnan, M., & Anwar, K.
