Summary/Abstract: Background/purpose. Learning problems are a common occurrence in the field of education, especially in the context of the post-pandemic era. This study aims to investigate the challenges faced by teachers in learning and the solutions they proposed to address these issues. Materials/methods. A phenomenological design was used in this study, with 49 teachers from various subjects and regions in Indonesia participating. The primary instrument was a questionnaire on learning problems and solutions, validated through content validity. Thematic analysis was employed for data analysis. Results. The study identified teachers’ challenges, including low student motivation and behavior, limited resources, lack of curriculum understanding, and unengaging learning designs. Proposed solutions included enhancing student motivation through effective learning management, parental support, provision of adequate learning facilities, and an adaptive curriculum, particularly in mathematics. Conclusion. The study concluded that low student motivation and behavior were linked to resource limitations, curriculum understanding gaps, and unengaging learning designs. Recommendations included improving learning motivation through effective learning management, parental involvement, infrastructure support, and teacher training for competency enhancement.
