The data analysis through the t-test and variance ANOVA test was done to examine the significant differences between participants' reports. Results: The outcomes of this survey exposed that distance learning has its benefits. However, some teachers faced some difficulties and barriers.

They have adequate time to prepare for the lectures. They have sufficient data on the digital web to deliver the courses properly and multiple sources to give the lectures with their suitability. Besides these advantages, there were a few barriers regarding distance learning; for instance, during the online session, due to networking issues and connection problems, some points always needed to be clarified to the students about the session. Conclusion: Teachers put more effort into technical approaches for distance learning to enhance students' academic performance.
