The goal for this study was to examine how students of educational science had experienced the remote studies caused by the pandemic and to examine how the remote studies had affected the students motivation, self-discipline and ability to concentrate. I was also interested in finding out how the students perceived their academic self-efficacy. The research approach in this study was phenomenographic. Phenomenographic studies strive to understand personal experiences. All together 5 students were interviewed about their experiences with remote studies. The interviews were semi-structured and done remotely through zoom. Afterwards the interviews were transcribed and analyzed with thematic analysis. The conducted study shows that the students were affected by the remote studies. Their motivation, self-discipline and ability to concentrate was affected by the remote studies. All of the participating students felt that they had good academic self-efficacy despite the remote studies.
