n this article, I will share the ideas and experiences with Moodle, Zoom and Meet that worked out and didn´t work out to move our undergraduate course online at a teacher/translator training university in Argentina. Together with 11 more EFL teachers, we teach the undergraduate course of English Language which is a core course for prospective teachers and translators of English and which aims at developing the four macroskills in EFL at a B1 level. To teach the face-to face classes, the course is subdivided into 8 groups. 1,100 EFL students have enrolled in the course this year with about 140 students in each subgroup. Since classes started in April, we did not have the chance to meet our students face-to-face and we have been using Moodle, Zoom and Meet to teach online.
