This study intends to analyze the impact of virtual learning on EEL learners' performance within the assessment results during the Covid-19 pandemic and also to assess the usage of the assessment results from tools at the time of the Covid19 pandemic. Moreover, it intends to give the students' educational performance once the sudden shift into Virtual- Learning supported their final ends up results in the assessment results. The information was gathered via a questionnaire which was distributed randomly among English male students in the English Group Centre. It was responded to by 23 students.
