Introduction
The outbreak of COVID-19 in early 2020 disrupted the entire world in ways that
were previously unimaginable. The pandemic forced people to stay indoors, businesses to
shut down, and countries to impose lockdowns and travel restrictions. In the midst of all
this chaos, schools and universities were also forced to make a significant change. As
traditional classroom teaching was no longer feasible due to the risk of spreading the
attend school. It refers to a kind of education where learning occurs between the learners
and teachers who are geographically distant from each other. This method of studying
was primarily implemented to avoid face-to-face interaction between the learners and the
teachers.
While the transition to new normal was necessary for safety reasons, it hasn't been
an easy adjustment for many students. One of the biggest struggles students face is the
lack of structure and routine that traditional in-person classes provide. Without set
schedules and designated class times, it can be challenging for students to stay motivated
and focused. Additionally, new normal learning can feel isolating and disconnected, as
students are no longer interacting with their peers and teachers in the same way.
Technical difficulties and a lack of access to reliable technology and internet can also be
a significant barrier for some students. In conclusion, the transition to online learning has
As the world gradually recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic, schools and
universities are beginning to reopen for face-to-face learning. While this is a welcome
development, it can be challenging for students who have become accustomed to new
normal learning. After months of attending classes from the comfort of their own homes,
many students may find it difficult to readjust to the structure and social interaction of in-
person classes. Additionally, some students may have developed habits or routines that
are not compatible with face-to-face learning, such as staying up late and sleeping in. The
transition can also be stressful for students who have concerns about their safety or that
may take time, and each student may have unique needs and challenges.
While the transition to online learning was necessary, it has resulted in significant
changes in the learning environment, which has affected students' academic performance,
motivation, and mental health. And as schools reopen for face-to-face learning, it is
essential to understand the challenges students face during the transition to face-to-face
learning. This study aims to explore the struggles of students during the transition from
experience of a student. Thus this study is necessary to understand the struggles students
face during this transition and to develop appropriate support mechanisms to ensure their
success. Understanding the challenges students face is essential in providing effective and
tailored support to aid students' adjustment. This study's findings will inform educational
institutions on how to adapt to the post-COVID-19 era and design appropriate
interventions that will enable students to achieve academic success in the face of the new
normal of learning. Ultimately, the reason why the researcher persists to conduct this

from a seamless transition since they would be freed up to concentrate on instructing and
difficulties. They would also be able to get the resources and support they need to help
since it would improve their credibility and reputation for giving students a high-quality
education and support. Additionally, it would guarantee that they can keep giving their
students the education and services they need, which is crucial for their survival and
development.

Theoretical Framework
The study is anchored from a journal article where the students were surveyed
about their perceptions of online learning before and after the transition to online learning
(Lemay, Bazelais, & Doleck, 2021). In this journal article it was proven that students is
indeed having struggle in online learning with the reports of increased stress, anxiety, and
difficulties in breathing. The relevance of this study and this journal article is that both
