In addition, the third tool is a complementary interview with staff members that consists of (4) items; the fourth is a complementary interview with students that consists of (6) items. The study results show that the pandemic of COVID-19 affects the teaching and learning of English for TEFL majors and English Language and Literature majors. These results are according to staff members' perspectives regardless of any of the variables the results indicated, regardless of staff members' gender, experience, and qualification, in addition, to students' perspectives regardless of any of the variables the results indicated, regardless of students' gender, academic year and department. In light of this finding, the researcher assures English students to attend their online courses and not skip any unless they have an excuse. Moreover, the researcher recommends attending significant workshops and conferences that familiarize staff members with new technological tools that are used in an online class situation and employing new techniques that motivate students to learn and boost their confidence in their written and spoken fluency.
