Abstract
The readiness of students in distance learning, especially in mathematics, needs to be considered. If students have readiness to carry out the learning process, their learning outcomes will be better. The purpose of this study was to analyze the readiness of students in distance learning in mathematics during the Covid-19 pandemic. The research method used is a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach. The sample in this study were students of class VIII at a junior high school in the city of Cimahi. The results of this study are students have readiness in tools or media for online learning in mathematics, students also know distance learning systems, but students experience some obstacles. The obstacles experienced by students are due to the limitations of current technology. In addition, the lack of confidence to ask questions during distance learning makes it difficult for students to understand mathematics. Teachers have an important role in being able to motivate students during distance learning and carry out learning using innovative media, especially in mathematics lessons.
