Abstract :The emergence of the Covid-19 virus around December 2020 and its rapid spread through human-to-human contact around the world made it essential for Turkey to take precautions, too. The purpose of this study is to explore the early childhood and early elementary teachers’ experiences as they transitioned to teaching in different modes of instruction during COVID-19 school closings in Turkey's educational context. The survey results provided important insights for Turkey’s school districts to develop a viable plan for effective transition to alternate methods of instruction in case of emergency transition to remote learning. We can use the information from this study to build a better alternative teaching infrastructure that can be used in a moment’s notice if the situation arises.Keywords : Remote learning, Teacher Experiences, Covid-19
