Summary/Abstract: This paper, finalised in June 2021 is an attempt to analyse more than a year of teaching online, filtered through the author’s personal experiences with 3 Dutch universities of applied sciences and the Romanian-American University. The main examples come from the author’s personal experience, but also from observing the classes of several colleagues who taught English and Business Communication. The paper explores practical solutions, class dynamics (and various contributing factors) by drawing on and comparing the author’s direct experience with some of the results of quantitative and qualitative research performed between March 2020 and May 2021 worldwide, with a particular focus on positive aspects and techniques that created an overall productive class experience, in an unprecedented global emergency remote teaching context.
