<p>Today many people are interested in implementing the concept of virtual classes, such as using Zoom Cloud Meetings for learning. Therefore, the authors are interested in discussing the difficulties of students in understanding learning activities using Zoom Cloud Meeting in virtual classes. The purposes include describing the kind of learning activities using Zoom Cloud Meeting in virtual classes and determining the students’ difficulties using Zoom Cloud Meeting in virtual classes. This study uses qualitative methods. The data collection techniques are interviewing ten respondents from the fifth-semester English Education Department of an Islamic University in Central Java, and the documentation.
