Abstract
This study aimed at bringing into light the various aspects of the impact of e-learning on the EFL
learners and Teachers and the level of their satisfaction with the outcome of their implementation
of e-learning in their classes. The participants consisted of EFL students and teachers that they
selected randomly from ELT teachers and learners of Shokoh institute in Zanjan. 100 students
and 20 teachers were selected randomly. 60 students were female and 40 male and 12 teachers
were female and 8 of them were male. The range of the students’ age was 19-21 years old and
teachers’ was 27-45 years old. In order to meet the criteria of the present research according to
the research question, two instruments were used, questionnaire and written protocol. Having
done the administration of the questionnaire and written protocol in form of semi-structured
interview, the researcher gathered the questionnaires and transcribed the interviews and then the
data was analyzed. The results show that the teachers have a more positive perception toward
e-learning. So, e-learning is more facilitator for EFL teachers than students. According to the
results of this study and previous studies reported in literature, it can be said that e-learning is
accepted by students and the teachers in online learning environment.
