The teacher's obstacle in learning skills in this new normal period is that the teacher has difficulty compiling online lesson plans which affects the lack of teacher preparation and the lack of parental guidance for students so that students are often not on time to complete assignments. The teacher's solution to these obstacles is that the teacher continues to carry out learning according to the students' abilities and the teacher speaks directly to the parents of students so that they pay more attention and guide students in completing assignments.
