Abstract Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the psychological impacts on adolescents and teenagers were reported to be greater than the adults (Zhang et al, 2020). The current pandemic situations can create stress due to reduced social interactions with peers, difficulties in schoolwork, stay-at-home restrictions, self-isolation protocols following possible exposure, and fear of becoming sick (Zhang et al, 2020). Further, these factors can increase social anxiety among teenagers. The purpose of this study is to understand the impact of online remote learning on teenagers with social anxiety.
