Abstract
Kuwait is one of the countries whose educational systems have suffered deeply following the governmental precautionary procedures which enforced the closure of schools to restrict the breakout of the virus. Affected dramatically by the consequences of the pandemic, this chapter focused on the challenges, strategies, and responses of English as a foreign language (EFL) teachers about the problems that emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic. Findings revealed that the greatest challenges they faced during online teaching were assessing students and keeping them involved during classes, teaching the writing skill, time constraints, and technical problems. Moreover, teachers showed low levels of difficulty in managing their online classrooms because of the support and cooperation of school administrations regarding students' behavior in online lessons.
