Attention is drawn to the insufficient preparation of teachers for the implementation of online learning. A survey of 178 first-year students of Smolensk State University conducted by the author showed that the period of distance learning in March-May 2020 changed many aspects of the usual life of schoolchildren. However, most of the respondents managed to successfully cope with the difficulties that arose, to find the positive aspects of home schooling. The greatest concern was caused by the lack of interaction between the family and the school, especially in matters of upbringing and career guidance, the lack of help from the school psychologist and social educator. It is concluded that there is a need for better training of all school staff that are able to work in new conditions, based on the practical experience gained in the conditions of distance learning.
