The interview data was analyzed through the thematic method using Nvivo 12 software and categorized according to theme. The findings of the study show that discussion methods, problem solving methods, contextual learning methods, project-based learning methods and flipped classroom methods are the most widely used online teaching methods by Malay language teachers. The findings of the study also show that learning through YouTube channels, referring to expert teachers and learning through learning sites are the three main initiatives that have been taken by Malay language teachers to improve their knowledge and skills in using GC.
