From the results of observations, analysis of questionnaires, and interviews, it was found that students have difficulty learning mathematics online because the learning carried out in junior high schools uses the WhatsApp application by means of teachers only sending photos of material and sample questions that make students difficult to understand math material because mathematics cannot just read it, and when students don^t understand students can^t ask people in their environment, because people around them don^t understand the material, and when students try to find other solutions from youtube, students find signal/internet network problems and run out of internet quota.
