Learning Management Systems (LMS) started in the 1990s. However, they were put under a global test after the
spread of Covid-19 in 2020 as educational institutions were forced to resort to LMS. However, LMSs do not meet
all the educational needs of the students. One of them is achieving an entire dialogical atmosphere among the
students without the instructor’s presence. This article discusses the procedures implemented by the instructors of
the English language in the Faculty of Tourism, Sakarya University of Applied Sciences (SUAS) during the
pandemic. A five-point Likert scale questionnaire was applied, in which 74 students from the aforementioned
faculty participated. The variables were reliable with Cronbach alpha α = 0.841. The main concentration was the
speaking skill, which was the primary challenge teachers met as it needed a group environment where students
could talk to each other and then find someone to amend the parts where they failed to express themselves in the
way their English level should show
